Why

Our relationship with you is …

  1. Exclusively advisory, exclusively for you. Our advice is based on getting to know you well, and always serving your highest financial interests accordingly.
  2. Targeted. We help retiring or near-retirement corporate executives and similar professional families enhance the quality of their lives by offering a disciplined approach to planning, investing and staying on track toward their personal financial goals.
  3. Experienced. Founded in 2001 in the wake of 9/11, we’re passionate about helping our clients organize, clarify and strengthen their financial affairs throughout the never-ending barrage of global market events.
  4. Enjoyable. Beyond just achieving your life’s goals, we want you to enjoy the experience along the way. 

 

fiduciary

noun  fi·du·cia·ry  \fə-ˈdü-shə-rē, -ˈdyü-, -shē-ˌer-ē\

  1. one often in a position of authority who obligates himself or herself to act on behalf of another (as in managing money or property) and assumes a duty to act in good faith and with care, candor, and loyalty in fulfilling the obligation.

 

What

To reinforce our client relationships, we are …

  1. Your fiduciary advisor, which means we are legally obligated to know and always act in your highest financial interests. Non-fiduciary, “suitable” advice is often flawed by outside interests and unfamiliarity with your circumstances.
  2. A Registered Investment Advisor firm, which further defines our role as an overarching supporter of your financial affairs. Our advice is never secondary to your spreadsheets; it’s central to your life.
  3. Fee-only, and affiliated with fee-only organizations, so our compensation comes exclusively from you, our client. Refusing any conflicting, third-party incentives helps further align our interests with your own.
  4. Plain-spoken Texans, who will tell it to you like it is. As a partner in your financial future, we’ll skip the technical jargon, so you can make informed decisions about your personal wealth.
