Keeping more of your money where it belongs — in your account.

Here's the Danger

There are two types of fees that can drain your retirement:

Advisor Fees

Go directly to your financial advisor

Investment Fees

Are netted off your returns and paid to the company managing your investments (mutual funds, variable annuities, etc.)

These fees may not bother you when you're making money (like the last 12 years). But in a downturn, they can feel downright painful. For example, if your advisor and investment fees amount to 2% annually, you could be paying $10,000 each year on a $500,000 IRA, or over $100,000 every decade.

You Need A Fee Analysis

It should be easy to understand how much things cost.

That’s why our Fee Analysis uses special software to show exactly how much you’re paying in financial advisor fees, and how much you are paying for investments. That transparency applies to our own fee as well. We provide our services on a flat fee basis based on the work and value we provide, not the zeroes in your accounts.

How Much Does Your Financial Planner Really Cost?

It’s a seemingly simple question, yet most people couldn’t tell you what they pay their financial advisor. Unfortunately, that’s often by design.
