My Approach

It’s hardly news that wealth can complicate your life. Because more is at stake, you have more financial decisions to make on an ongoing basis.

Many of these choices involve finding ways to grow and preserve your wealth. But look closely and you’ll see that even the simplest decisions generally involve multiple considerations—tax management strategies, retirement planning, health-care costs and more. Certain steps, such as estate planning and the creation of trusts, may affect the well-being of several generations. Entrepreneurs face the added requirement of balancing the needs of their business with that of their own financial life.

Fortunately, even the most complex financial issues can be handled successfully with the help of a dedicated advisor who is experienced and knowledgeable about the realities of wealth.

  • The FIVE STAR Wealth Manager Program (“Program”) research was conducted (Insert survey dates from the Five Star table: www.fivestarprofessional.com/wm2012researchdates.htm.) All identified broker dealers, RIA firms and FINRA-registered representatives in the area were contacted to gather wealth manager nominations. Fewer than seven percent of wealth managers in the area receive the recognition. The quality of client service provided by nominated wealth managers was evaluated using ten objective criteria, but results may not represent a particular client experience. Not all wealth managers use discretionary control to manage clients’ assets. Five Star Professional, manages the Program, but does not endorse listed wealth managers. Investors should conduct their own evaluation of a financial professional as working with a financial advisor is not a guarantee of future financial success. For details go to: www.fivestarprofessional.com/wm2012researchoverview.htm
  • As part of the FIVE STAR Wealth Manager ("Program") research process, surveys were administered to at least 20% of high–net–worth households in the area, along with financial service professionals (survey dates and details at: www.fivestarprofessional.com/wmresearchspecs). Fewer than seven percent of wealth managers in the area receive the recognition. Wealth managers were evaluated based on customer service, knowledge, overall satisfaction and other criteria. A score averages all responses and may not represent a particular client experience. Not all wealth managers use discretionary control to manage clients’ assets. Crescendo Business Services, LLC, manages the Program, but does not endorse listed wealth managers. Working with this wealth manager is not a guarantee of future financial success. Investors should conduct their own evaluation of a financial professional.
