The right guidance helps you reach new heights on your financial journey, and we’re there for every step of the climb.

Safe Dial

Secure your FIRE plan

FIRE isn’t just about hitting a number. It’s about building a life where work becomes optional. That takes more than a brokerage account. It takes a plan that accounts for taxes, healthcare, withdrawals, and the curveballs life throws along the way.

We build comprehensive financial plans designed around your specific timeline, your goals, and your definition of “enough.”

Retire sooner with better investing

Index funds were designed for diversification. But today’s most popular indexes have become top-heavy and dominated by a handful of mega-cap names. If your portfolio tracks the S&P 500 or NASDAQ 100, you may have much more concentration risk than you realize.

We build portfolios around a core market allocation, optimized to reduce rebalancing friction and avoid unnecessary drag. Alongside that core, we maintain a selective allocation to individual stocks chosen for quality, valuation, and diversification benefit. This dual passive/active approach diversifies not just your holdings, but your strategy itself and targets better outcomes.

Retire on your terms

We build portfolios around your timeline, not a generic retirement age. Your independence date drives every decision.

Confidence in volatile markets

Market swings are inevitable. We help you stay invested and stay calm, with a strategy built to weather uncertainty.

Investing and planning together

Your portfolio and your financial plan should work with each other. We make sure they do.

Good planning avoids surprises

From taxes to market risk, we think ahead so you’re not caught off guard.

Tax planning beyond April

Roth conversions, asset location, capital gains harvesting. We look for opportunities across years, not just at filing time.

Bridging the gap to traditional retirement

The years between early retirement and Medicare/Social Security require different strategies. We plan specifically for that window.

Common questions

We start with the understanding that FIRE timelines are shorter and more aggressive than traditional retirement. That means we focus on owning quality companies at reasonable valuations, avoiding the frothiest parts of the market, while staying fully invested for long-term growth. We’re not trying to time the market, but we are intentional about what we own and why.

Both. We’re investment specialists, but FIRE requires more than good stock picks. It requires a plan. We help with savings targets, tax strategy, withdrawal projections, and the broader roadmap from where you are now to the day you walk away from work.

The earlier you start, the more options you have. Small adjustments now can compound into meaningful differences down the road. Even if your FIRE date is decades away, having a clear investment strategy and financial plan in place helps you make better decisions along the way.

It’s a useful starting point, but it was designed for a 30-year retirement. If you’re retiring at 40 or 45, you may need a more flexible approach. We can help you stress-test your withdrawal rate against your actual timeline and goals.
