It is impossible to make a financial decision without taking into account the entire picture of an individual's finances. Like a physician, we need to know your entire story to provide you with a personalized plan based on your individual needs and goals. One reason a doctor asks many questions about your history is because it influences their recommendations. Current medications impact new medications they may want to prescribe and family history may impact screening tests they recommend. 

The same holds true in personal finance. Every decision must be made in the context of the bigger picture. For example, investment decisions can 

impact your taxes and your estate planning strategy can impact your insurance strategy. In other words, the decisions made in one area of your finances can have consequences in other areas. 

​

All aspects of your finances must be coordinated together so the plan is consistent with your goals. Just like in medicine, sometimes it takes a whole team of people from different specialties to put a plan in action. We specialize in managing investments for our clients based on their lifelong goals, but we also work with attorneys, tax advisors and insurance agents if something falls outside of our specialty to coordinate all aspects of a person's financial plan.
