Life Transition Planning
Life is a continual process of transition. Graduations, the birth of a child, your first job, a new house, purchasing or selling a business, retirement, chronic illness and death are all important life transitions that work best when there’s a plan in place. From beginning to end, we’d like to be at your side as your guide. Smooth transitions lead to sustainable wealth and family unity.

Emotions and investing do not mix well. This why our evidence-based investment approach is informed by your long-term goals, academic research and financial science. We focus on what you can control, which provides a disciplined approach that relies on diversification and minimizes expenses and taxes. Our motto is Science not Science Fiction.

Doing nothing often results in losing control of everything and family conflict.
Family Wealth Counseling
90 percent of affluent families lose control of their wealth within three generations. If so, you might ask, what do the 10% do differently? They integrate the hard issues (tools, techniques and strategies) with the heart issues (social, emotional and spiritual). We have developed a comprehensive process that integrates the practices of some of the best families across the US that have avoided the 90% failure rate* that destroys family wealth and unity.
