WHAT WE DO
Our process begins with your goals and vision. We then lead the execution of your financial plan. That includes cash flow management, insurance, taxes, your work benefits, education planning, and your investment management.
F5 Financial Planning was established to help individuals discover harmony in the most important aspects of their lives. It is our belief that a life of Freedom and Significance is founded upon a deliberate lifestyle of creating harmony and balance between the Five Fs—Faith, Friends, Family, Fitness, and Finance.
We challenge our clients and push them to grow as individuals, and we hold them accountable to follow through on what they know is in their best interests. Our job is to make sure you have security, simplicity, and success related to all the financial aspects of your life. We can’t imagine any other approach.
Our focus revolves around helping our clients achieve their life goals. We serve as a personal CFO and are available to help them when issues arise.
We are a fee-only financial planner, so we don’t try and upsell you on additional products, or collect any commission off of your assets. We’ll agree on the fee and that’s it! From that point forward our minds are focused solely on your financial wellbeing.
