Here’s How We Work

We offer ongoing financial advice as well as one-time engagements and periodic checkups. As part of each engagement we give you step-by-step instructions so you can implement our advice.

In addition:

• We offer a free initial Get Acquainted Meeting. This is usually conducted in person.
• We will give you an estimate, upfront, of the expected fee.
• You can choose how much we work for you.
• We can work together in person, by phone or via e-mail.
• Annual checkups are recommended, but not required.
