Budget and
Saving Management

Earn thousands, spend hundreds and save.

You will either need to save from the money you earn, the money you inherit, or possibly both, and invest to replace your earned income. Some of us will be fortunate enough to inherit, but most of us will need to save from the money we earn and invest it for the day when we stop working for money.

IT’S JUST PART OF WHAT WE DO.

Real-Time Dashboard of Your Key Performance Indicators

We provide you with a real-time dashboard of your key performance indicators that track the vital signs of your wealth management plan we work together to create with you. Your dashboard provides you with a single-pane executive summary of the high-value metrics of your plan. These metrics help inform you and your team to identify and stay focused on the key issues and top priorities of your plan.

Tax-Deferred, Tax-Preferenced, Tax-Free
and Taxable Savings Rates

We identify, help create, track and balance your use of tax-deferred, tax-preferenced, tax-free and taxable saving opportunities. We provide you with a budget and expense portal that helps you capture, organize and structure your cash flow. We prepare summary reports for your review and provide strategies to help you improve your tax-deferred, tax-preferenced, tax-free and taxable saving rates.

Household Cash
Burn Rate

We help you track, organize and structure your household expenses to calculate how much of your income you use for living expenses, taxes and saving. We help you identify your spending and saving rates to track your retirement preparedness and financial security. We help you estimate the number of years you could live on your cash or cash-like assets before needing to liquidate longer-term investments.

Income Stability
Rate

We identify and calculate the percentages of your income that are stable versus variable to help you determine your capacities and exposures to various financial risks ‒ personal, business and investment leverage and associated debt repayment schedules; investment strategies; retirement plan funding requirements; durable goods and maintenance expense schedules; saving shortfalls; and other liquidity needs.

Borrowing and
Debt Rate

We evaluate the types, amounts and structure of debt you use in your financial life and wealth management plan and help you align the type, duration and amounts of your debt structure to match the duration of your financed assets and consumption. We help you track your debt service obligations and related income and asset coverage.

Uninsured Risk
Exposure Rate

We help identify and quantify your loss exposures to material risks in your financial life that would have the potential to create “wipeout” risk to your financial safety and wealth management plan. We help calculate the types and amounts of insurance coverages you need to protect your wealth management plan compared to the types and amounts of the coverages you have.

Equity Investment
Rate

We calculate a range of investment capital allocations you will need to commit to long-term investment in stocks and business interests to meet your required compound rate of return within a high probability of success. We analyze and help identify your financial capacity to embrace the upper and lower bounds of allocations of your investment capital to higher-risk, higher-return portions of the capital markets.

Tax Efficiency
Rate

We review your tax returns, types of investments, investment strategies, account types, how you hold title to your assets and liabilities, and track your marginal and effective tax rates to help you identify potential opportunities to reduce, convert, defer or eliminate your tax liabilities with planning.

Cash Liquidity
Rate

We help you track the amount of after-tax cash you have available to estimate the number of years you could live on cash or cash-like assets outside of your retirement plan assets if needed.

Critical Path
Rate

We create studies of various scenarios to determine worst-case scenarios in which your financial future might unfold. We model and stress-test actual investment returns below plan forecast combined with expenses, inflation and tax rates above forecast. We model “financial-winter” scenarios that might unfold under conditions of economic adversity to help you adjust your plan to withstand a “plan-to-worst” outcome.
