We aren't like most other financial planners. We are an independent financial firm offering a wide variety of financial services and products. 

Independent Firm

It's our responsibility to evaluate and assess your financial situation and only make recommendations that have your financial goals in mind.

Retirement Planning

 

While there are many things that are unique to you and your retirement planning, we have also found a lot of common concerns like; not running out of money, not overpaying taxes, and not losing money. We work together to develop a plan that helps instill confidence and not concern.

Wealth Management 

We specially tailor investment strategies and plans to your unique situation, goals, and investment personality.

We understand there are some things you can’t control, but some things you can. One of the things you can control are the fees you have to pay. We want to be right up front and have transparency in how we get paid for the time, experience, knowledge and work on your behalf.

We get paid in three ways. First, we charge a one-time flat fee for your initial plan.  Second, we charge a fee for providing custom, well-designed portfolios tailored to your own individual risk and for ongoing financial planning. Third, we earn commissions for any insurance tools we might need for your plan.

We do not receive commissions for buying or selling stocks or mutual funds.  Moreover, we do not receive any back-end or trail fees from mutual fund companies. We do not charge on performance, or on the types of securities or positions in your investment account.

We aim to keep our interests aligned with yours: as your account grows, so do we.

Advisory Services

We administer a 1.00% to 1.50% annual fee on all managed accounts held at Altruist, depending on the size of the household accounts.

Legal Planning

All estate planning and asset protection planning services are billed at a flat fee, not hourly, so you know exactly how much this type of planning will cost upfront, with no surprises.
