Mission
Statement: Vision for our business
We strive to assist our clients in accomplishing their life goals through practical investment planning and by utilizing prudent, proven investment diversification strategies.

Financial Concierge:   We help you get to where you want to be! 
 
Team Approach and Philosophy 
We take the time to thoroughly understand the life goals of our client relationships. We capitalize on the full service investment brokerage and banking resources of  Wells Fargo Advisors, and we strive to exceed client service expectations. 
 
Remuneration and Product Neutrality 
We may be compensated for our services by either an investment advisory fee and/or traditional commission programs. Under no circumstances will our investment recommendations be driven by firm proprietary quotas or sales incentives. We strive for full disclosure and transparency of our remuneration and one which serves the long term interest of the client relationship. 
 
Our Ideal Client Relationship 
Our ideal client relationship begins with investable assets of a minimum of at least $250,000-500,000. The individual is thoughtful, intelligent and informed and is respectful of our expertise and the time we dedicate to exceeding the expectations of our client relationships.
We seek relationships who in turn are seeking a trusting, long term relationship with a professional financial advisor.
  
401(k) Advocacy and Value Proposition 
We help plan sponsors make their retirement plan more successful by implementing strategies for increasing participation and savings rates AND helping participants allocate their assets in an age and investment risk appropriate manner.
 
We guide plan sponsors in monitoring their plan fiduciary responsibilities by assisting them with the investment selection and monitoring process as well as controlling and at times lowering the overall cost of the plan.
 
We keep the interests of the participants and their beneficiaries as our top priority. We believe that every participant deserves the right—regardless of income or the size of their account balance—to be able to access high quality education and investment advisory services.

There’s Still Time to Catch Up

Worker confidence in affording a comfortable retirement fell to a record low in 2011, but investors aged 50 and older may be able to make up for lost time by maximizing contributions to retirement plans and taking advantage of catch-up contribution limits. The accompanying chart shows the potential difference in accumulation by taking advantage of catch-up contributions.

Finding a Good Time to Invest

When a prominent stock market index closes above an important threshold, many investors who have been sitting on the sidelines may see it as good time to invest, but they may have missed a significant part of the rally. Waiting for the "right" moment to invest could prove to be a costly and ineffective strategy.

Do You Have Enough Disability Coverage

Disability can affect anyone without notice, and a well-paid professional in the midst of a productive career has much to lose if he or she suffers a medical problem and is unable to work. But there are ways that high earners can expand their coverage and help ensure that their income, assets, and lifestyle are not at risk from a potential disability.

HOT TOPIC: Current Economic Conditions and the Prospect for Inflation

Inflation jumped up to 3.2% in April. That’s still below the 50-year average but it may be little consolation for anyone who has been to a gas station or a grocery store recently.
