RETIRE HAPPY

OUR PURPOSE

WE BELIEVE IN LIVING LIFE TO THE FULLEST AND CREATING EVERLASTING MEMORIES. THOSE TWO EXPERIENCES ARE THE REAL RICHES OF RETIREMENT. AND WE WANT OUR CLIENTS TO HAVE AN ABUNDANCE OF BOTH. TO ACHIEVE THAT, OUR MATTHEW JAMES TEAM DESIGNS PERSONALIZED FINANCIAL STRATEGIES FOR RETIREES & PRE-RETIREES.
THINK OF US LIKE THE BOB ROSS OF THE FINANCIAL WORLD – PAINTING A HAPPY LITTLE RETIREMENT. JUST FOR YOU. AND YOU DESERVE TO RETIRE HAPPY.

WEALTH GOALS

We strive to create realistic plans for you to withdraw from your savings during retirement. As your life evolves, we adjust your distributions to make sure you can experience the things you want in life.

LEARN MORE

When it comes to investing, there are three main options: Taxable, Tax Deferred, and Tax Free. It’s important to keep in mind that, eventually, Uncle Sam will get his share of the income – and without proper planning, your heirs may be faced with a hefty tax bill. Preparing for the future by thoroughly understanding the long-term implications of each type of investment is essential for successful financial planning.

LEARN MORE

Retirees often worry about outliving their income, especially due to high costs of long-term care and potential loss of income caused by the death of a spouse. To help protect their life savings in times of crisis, we explore strategies that can help safeguard their financial security.

LEARN MORE

This is all about taking the reins of your future. Knowing to whom you want your belongings to go after you pass away is the first step. You can decide exactly who should get what – and when. Prioritize and take control of your legacy today by planning ahead. With the help of our custom strategy, you can make sure that your wishes are respected.

LEARN MORE

As the baby boomer generation continues to age, the importance of long-term care planning increases significantly. To ensure you are able to sustain a healthy life, planning for potential expenses related to long-term care is essential. It is important to consider the best option for funding long-term care without compromising your retirement income.

LEARN MORE

Do you know your risk number?
Our 5-minute quiz provides an easier way to understand your risk tolerance. This will help you align your retirement portfolio with your investment goals and expectations. We believe this is one of the best technologies we use in our practice, and it helps give our clients the confidence to make more informed decisions about their investments.
