Lighthouse Wealth Management is a financial planning and investment management firm committed to its fiduciary responsibility to do what is in each client’s best interest. We sign a fiduciary statement for each client promising to do just that, which we think all top financial advisors should do. We approach financial planning holistically. We review your whole financial life, not simply the assets we manage. When we give you financial advice, we believe it is truly in your best interest, not ours. We do not receive any form of commissions, and we do not sell annuities, life insurance, or other similar products.
