What Makes Us Unique |
Lifetime Financial Planning is unique in that the firm offers
its services to "everyone" on an as-needed
basis for an hourly fee. There are no requirements as
to your income, net worth, or the amount of money you have
to invest. Since we are compensated only on an hourly fee basis,
we are able
to
provide
recommendations
that are solely in our clients' best interests.
Unlike most of the national financial service firms, "we
do not sell" any proprietary investment or insurance products,
which might cloud our objectivity. At Lifetime Financial Planning
there are absolutely "no commissions, sales quotas or incentive
contests" driving our recommendations.
Many financial advisers provide "fee-based" financial
planning, which means they charge a fee for financial advice
and also receive commissions on the investment and insurance
products they recommend. Lifetime Financial Planning is a "fee-only"
Registered Investment Advisory Firm. The only thing our clients
pay for is the time required for a financial adviser to evaluate
their financial situation and to meet with them to provide specific
recommendations. |
