Financial Management Experience
Greg joined Net Worth Advisory Group in 2009 as a client service manager. In that role he gained valuable experience developing comprehensive financial plans, analyzing investment portfolios, and presenting retirement plans to clients. Prior to working with Net Worth Advisory Group, Greg worked as a sales representative before being promoted to manager for a home security company. Those experiences taught him to be aware of clients’ specific needs and concerns, skills which have proved invaluable as a financial planner.
Greg uses a comprehensive financial plan as a foundation to help outline clients’ retirement goals while providing peace of mind for the future. Through this process, he works tirelessly to help clients achieve their financial goals by managing their expectations, educating them about the market, and with efficient tax planning. This process is maintained and enhanced via semi-annual plan updates and investment performance reviews, all at a fee that is cost efficient for the client.
Greg believes the only way he can truly be accountable to his clients is through a fee-only platform, as opposed to working in a commission-based environment where conflicts of interest are inherent. This platform also provides him the opportunity to cultivate and develop life-long relationships with his clients. His services include: wealth management, investment management, company retirement plans, education planning, insurance evaluation, tax evaluation, retirement planning, pension and social security analysis, and estate planning.

Greg and his wife live in Eagle Mountain Utah with their two daughters. They enjoy vacationing in San Diego and playing golf.

TRANSPARENT FEE-ONLY PRICE
We charge a minimum of $750 for a comprehensive financial plan. For wealth management clients, we charge an all-inclusive fee for managing investment portfolios which covers the cost of investments, the advisor, transactions and ongoing financial planning services. Most clients pay between .5% and 1.5% depending on portfolio size. In a minority of cases an extra expense may apply for mutual funds and ETFs.
OBJECTIVE AND INDEPENDENT
As an independent advisor we are not beholden to one broker dealer or one set of proprietary funds. As a result, we can select from a variety of brokerages and investment alternatives that best fit our clients’ situation. As a fee-only firm we provide services that are not tainted by a hidden agenda to sell financial products paying large commissions. Since we don’t earn commission we can focus exclusively on helping our clients without any conflicts of interest.
FIDUCIARY DUTY TO YOU
As a fee-only firm, we are fiduciaries to our clients. This means our financial planners are legally required to act in your best interest at all times. You may be surprised to learn that this is a much higher standard than many other brokers and advisors are held to. Our fiduciary duty means that you can rely on us to make the best decisions for you.
