Maury Schneider is a Long Island (Massapequa, NY) fee-only financial planner. MLS Financial Planning provides comprehensive financial planning and cash management planning to help clients organize, grow and protect their assets through life’s transitions. As a fee-only, fiduciary, and independent financial advisor, Maury Schneider is never paid a commission of any kind, and has a legal obligation to provide unbiased and trustworthy financial advice.
Hi, I'm Maury Schneider, CPA, CFP® (but you can call me professor). I'm focused on educating my clients on implementing a process to achieve their financial freedom over the long‐term. I believe knowledge is powerful and when we don't have a trusted person to ask questions to or we don't know where to begin the process, inaction and complacency is the result.
My goal is to help you achieve financial clarity, make mindful and informed decisions, and use your money as a tool to design a life that you love now and in the future. Life is full of choices. I will help you make the best decisions for YOU.
In addition to my work with individuals and families, I’ve been helping companies, both big and small, achieve their goals for over twenty years.
I've also been married for over 30 years to my best friend and the CEO of our family. She is the best person I know and we have raised two great children that are now successful adults. Of course we've also had the best dog (as everyone who owns a pet has). Along the way, we have educated them (yes, the dog too) and had our share of ups and downs just like you have. I have walked in your shoes (although everyone's journey is unique and their own) and that's another reason I feel I can help you achieve your goals and objectives as we will define them together.
When I decided to shift my focus to helping individuals, families and young professionals achieve their goals, I went back to school to get a masters degree in personal financial planning. This unique combination of education and experience make me different and uniquely qualified to help you. I believe the best approach to financial planning and cash management planning that focuses on YOU is to educate and partner with you and to become your accountability coach and decision facilitator.
I spend my days helping clients organize their finances and create practical financial processes that provide clarity and peace of mind. I also teach accounting, business and financial planning to college students, which is not only fun but keeps me on my toes and better informed to help you.
