Welcome to my website, where I hope to offer you something of life changing value.
If you would like to know more about how I approach the markets and working with clients,
check out my interview in Proactive Advisor Magazine.
Whether you are already retired or working to accumulate enough capital to fund retirement, you are likely aware that serious problems for most investors are the low levels of current income available from the bond markets and the possibility of devastatingly substantial losses that seem to lurk around the corner every few years in the stock markets.
If you've ever been let down by or are skeptical of the standard advice of relying on asset allocation, along with its attendant reduction in returns and the wishful thinking of "staying the course" during market declines, consider that diversification by strategy is a more successful method of managing risk.
My focus with clients is to enable them to:
* Secure a desired level of guaranteed income
either now if already retired
or later upon retirement.
* Steadily grow investment capital to a needed
amount by combining multiple risk
management strategies so as to smooth out the
variance of returns by minimizing the downside
and upon retirement, convert enough of it into a
desired level of guaranteed income.
* Continue using multiple risk management
strategy combinations with the remaining
non-income capital once in retirement in order
to regularly fund increases of their
guaranteed income while retired.
Understanding bear market history helps define the challenge.
Knowing the history of asset allocation returns helps define at what point on the risk/reward spectrum you are either currently positioned or considering exposing yourself to.
We use a blend of different risk management strategies designed to gain as much on the upside as possible, while avoiding most of the downside.
