While you are not required to bring anything to your first meeting, it would be helpful if you brought the following:

  • Your latest financial statements such as Mutual Funds, CD’s, life insurance policies, annuity policies, retirement accounts (IRA, 401(k), TSA, 403(b), etc.), trusts, etc.
  • A copy of last year’s Tax Return, if possible
  • Your completed Retirement Road Map® Questionnaire, which will accompany the confirmation package that will be sent to you in advance of your visit
  • Any questions you may have or issues you want to discuss

We will analyze your current financial situation by reviewing with you all of the information you provide. Then by talking with you and identifying your specific areas of concern, we will be able to determine your needs and goals and make recommendations that are tailored to you. It is a fact-finding discussion.

There is absolutely no charge or obligation. Many times after the initial face-to-face visit, we can tell folks that everything looks great and no changes are recommended. However, if both parties agree that we could add real value to your situation, we would schedule a second visit.
