The Planning Process

Three conversations.
One clear plan.

Retirement planning shouldn't feel like a sales pitch. Here's exactly what happens when we sit down together, from our very first conversation to the finer details of your plan.

Every plan is different, but the process is always the same. It's built in three appointments, each with its own purpose, so you always know what to expect and never feel rushed into a decision.

What I Help With

Areas we can cover together

Guaranteed Lifetime Income

Income that lasts as long as you do, no matter how long that is or what the market does along the way.

SPIAFIADIA

Social Security Optimization

Strategies to help you decide when and how to claim, so you get the most out of a benefit you've already earned.

SESSION 01

Getting to Know You

Where we start

Our first meeting is about you, not a product. I want to understand your full financial picture and what a good retirement actually looks like in your own words.

  • Gather information about your current finances and family situation
  • Learn about your goals and what you envision your retirement looking like
  • Start addressing your top concerns and questions about retirement
  • Introduce myself and my company, and how I can help you plan
SESSION 02

Education

Where we build understanding

Before we talk about any specific product, you should understand the risks retirees actually face and the range of ways to solve for them. This session is entirely about education, no pressure.

  • Walk through the different types of retirement risk
  • Discuss the common problems people run into in retirement
  • Explore how those problems can be solved or reduced
  • Answer your questions so you feel informed, not sold to
SESSION 03

The Right Fit

Where we get specific

Once we both understand your goals and the landscape of risk, we get specific. This is where we go deep on the individual products that may fit your plan.

  • Review specific products that may make sense for your retirement plan
  • Go in depth on interest rates, dividend payouts, and death benefits
  • Cover how each option is taxed, and ways to help reduce your tax burden
  • Answer the finer detail questions before you decide on anything

Retirement planning can feel scary. It doesn't have to be.

Most of that fear comes from not knowing what you don't know. That's why education comes before any product conversation. A solid foundation of understanding is what turns an overwhelming decision into a clear one, and it's the difference between a plan you were sold and a plan you actually understand.

Ready When You Are

Let's schedule your first conversation.

Session one is simply a conversation about your goals. There's no obligation, and no cost to sit down and talk.
