Our Fee-Only “No-Commission” Policy Ensures that You Get Recommendations with No Conflict of Interest

In addition, with a CPA certification, we also understand the complexities of investment tax implications. You don’t have to worry about making a chunk of money only to see it gobbled up at tax time. Our strategic planning incorporates ALL the variables to maximize your wealth.

Commissions Bring Profits to Others and Risk to You



Case Study

Shane came to us wanting to review his Merrill Lynch. We noticed he had a taxable brokerage account with mutual funds that had both high internal fees and a high front-end load (sales commission) of 5% totaling  $112,500 in fees


In order for these mutual funds to produce a decent return over the fees they contained riskier stocks. So the broker made money while Shane carried all the risk. 


To put the odds more in Shane’s favor we designed a comparable portfolio with lower fees, no commission load, and lower market risk. More of
his money went to work for him! And better yet, when and if we make portfolio changes he will never pay us a sale commission because we don’t work on commission. Thus, he can always trust that we make recommendations based on profitability for him and not us!



Case Study

Another client, Paul, had a brokerage portfolio consisting of mutual funds producing large short-term capital gains of $44,000. Since he was in the top tax bracket of 37% he was paying $16,280 in taxes to IRS. So after tax, he only netted $27,720 Crikey! (As Crocodile Dundee would say). He was giving the IRS 37% of his profits!


We found more tax-efficient funds that tilted his gains inside his funds to long-term capital gains. His tax went down to $6,600 which was
$9,680 in tax savings ($16,280 – 6,600). This was $9,680 for him to keep instead of giving it to the IRS!
