We recognize the importance of protecting our clients’ privacy. We have policies to maintain the confidentiality and security of your nonpublic personal information. The following is designed to help you understand what information we collect from you and how we use that information to serve your account.

Categories of Information We May Collect

In the normal course of business, we may collect the following types of information:

  • Information you provide in the subscription documents and other forms (including name, address, social security number, date of birth, income and other financial-related information); and
  • Data about your transactions with us (such as the types of investments you have made and your account status).

 
How We Use Your Information That We Collect

Any and all nonpublic personal information that we receive with respect to our clients who are natural persons is not shared with nonaffiliated third parties which are not service providers to us without prior notice to, and consent of, such clients, unless otherwise required by law. In the normal course of business, we may disclose the kinds of nonpublic personal information listed above to nonaffiliated third-party service providers involved in servicing and administering products and services on our behalf. Our service providers include, but are not limited to, our administrator, our auditors and our legal advisor. Additionally, we may disclose such nonpublic personal information as required by law (such as to respond to a subpoena) or to satisfy a request from a regulator and/or to prevent fraud. Without limiting the foregoing, we may disclose nonpublic personal information about you to governmental entities and others in connection with meeting our obligations to prevent money laundering including, without limitation, the disclosure that may be required by the Uniting and Strengthening America Act by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism (USA PATRIOT) Act of 2001 and the regulations promulgated thereunder. In addition, if we choose to dispose of our clients’ nonpublic personal information that we are not legally bound to maintain, we will do so in a manner that reasonably protects such information from unauthorized access. The same privacy policy also applies to former clients who are natural persons.

Confidentiality and Security

We restrict access to nonpublic personal information about our clients to those employees and agents who need to know that information to provide products and services to our clients. We maintain physical, electronic and procedural safeguards to protect our clients’ nonpublic personal information. We respect and value that you have entrusted us with your private financial information, and we will work diligently to maintain that trust. We are committed to preserving that trust by respecting your privacy as provided herein.

Where should your next dollar go?

You’re earning more than ever – so why does every financial decision still feel overwhelming?

You’ve worked hard to get here. You have a good income, maybe a growing investment account, a 401(k) you’ve been contributing to, and a mental list of financial goals that keeps getting longer. You know you should be doing something smart with your money, but when you sit down to actually decide what, the options feel endless and the stakes feel high.

Should you max out your Roth IRA or contribute more to your traditional 401(k)? Pay off the mortgage early or invest the difference? Build up the emergency fund or put more into the market? Fund the kids’ 529 or focus on your own retirement first?

If any of that sounds familiar, you’re not alone and you’re not behind. You just don’t have a clear framework for prioritizing your next dollar.

Most people in their 30s, 40s, and 50s have absorbed plenty of financial advice over the years. The issue isn’t that they don’t know what a Roth IRA is. The issue is that they don’t know which of the ten smart things they could do right now is the right thing to do first.

Financial decisions don’t live in isolation. Putting money in the wrong place at the wrong time – even a technically “good” account – can cost you flexibility, trigger unnecessary taxes, or tie up capital you’ll need sooner than you expected.

That’s why sequencing matters more than almost anything else in personal finance.

Start with these four questions

Before your next dollar goes anywhere, it helps to have clarity on a few things:

  • Are you financially secure in the basics: emergency fund, insurance, no high-interest debt?
  • What is this money actually for: retirement, a specific goal, long-term growth, or a broader strategy?
  • How soon might you need access to it?
  • What’s your current and expected future tax situation?

Your answers to those questions change everything about where that dollar should go. Someone who expects to be in a higher tax bracket in retirement should prioritize very differently than someone who expects to be in a lower one. Someone saving for a home purchase in three years needs a completely different approach than someone building a 20-year retirement portfolio.

We have a free, one-page flowchart called “Where should my next dollar go?” that walks you through exactly this decision, step by step, based on your actual situation. It will give you a clear starting point and help you ask the right questions before you act.

Download the guide and take the next step. If you’re ready to move from “I should probably do something” to an actual plan, we’re here to help, schedule your free 30-minute consultation. No pressure, no obligation – just clarity.
