Fee-Only Financial Planner serving the Milwaukee, WI area and clients across the country

Hilltop Financial Advisors is a Milwaukee, WI fee-only financial planning firm that provides comprehensive and objective financial planning to help clients organize, grow and protect their assets through life’s transitions. In addition to helping young medical professionals, business owners, and growing families, we also specialize in student loans, helping you develop the best strategy for eliminating your student debt. As a fee-only, fiduciary, and independent financial advisor, Hilltop Financial Advisors is never paid a commission of any kind, and has a legal obligation to provide unbiased and trustworthy financial advice.

 

Hilltop's subsidiary brand, Student Loans Over 50 (SL50), helps adults over 50 conquer their federal student loans. Using a signature student loan system, SL50 helps older clients:

- Find and qualify for federal student loan debt forgiveness or student loan relief.

- Leverage exclusive tax strategies to lower their monthly payments even more.

- Aggressively funnel these savings towards their retirement or other financial goals.

Welcome! I'm Erik Kroll, a Certified Financial Planner professional (CFP®) and student loan expert. I'm passionate about helping people conquer debt, find loan forgiveness for their student loans, and build intelligent money systems that align with their deepest values.

 

I created Hilltop Financial Advisors after following the "traditional" path of financial planning and investment management in Milwaukee's financial district. 

 

After five years, I noticed that busy people spend so much time working or planning for the future that they don't have time to enjoy the present! 

 

I realized that these people were doing so many things right, but their money didn't align with their values. I discovered they didn't need a bunch of financial bells and whistles. They just needed a better system to manage their money and cut 90% of their decision-making.

 

Hilltop's single-point-of-contact management model ensures that your true priorities are part of every financial decision. As your representative, we handle the administrative headaches you hate, so you can enjoy what you love instead.

 

I understand how careers and family can demand so much of your time and leave room for little else. 

 

I created Student Loans Over 50 after hearing story after story of adults in their 50s, 60s, and even 70s with crippling student debt. These people were terrified of retiring with debt (understandably so!) but had no idea if they qualified for student loan relief.

 

I studied every federal student loan debt forgiveness and assistance program in the book. Then, I developed a system that combined these strategies with Hilltop's single-point-of-contact model. As a result, my 50+ clients can enjoy their golden years while achieving retirement security.
