Wealth Management

Wealth Management

Optimist believes that a diversified portfolio of great companies is the best way to grow wealth and protect purchasing power. The method your advisor uses to achieve this is important to your success. That’s why we follow a philosophy called Optimist TLC  - Transparency, Liquidity and Cost Effectiveness™. We look to create a portfolio that serves your goals and risk tolerance with the greatest efficiency.

Investments

Tax Optimization

We work with your tax advisor to help lower your tax rates, making your retirement savings last longer. Your plan will show exactly how you'll be paid and taxed. We’ll explore strategies like ROTH conversions, company stock distributions, stock option exercises, and deferred income to meet your retirement goals efficiently.

Annuities

Risk Management

The real risk in retirement? Unplanned health expenses that can drain your assets. Planning for long-term care and premature death is essential. While insurance isn’t always appealing, it can be the most efficient protection. Your plan will include coverage recommendations—or show you why you might not need it! As independent fiduciary advisors, we source solutions from one of the largest independent insurance brokerages, aiming to find a solution that best serves your needs.

Estate Optimization

The true mark of a successful retirement plan is the legacy it leaves behind. What people and causes matter most to you? We’ll work with your estate attorney to ensure your legacy goals are met, regardless of your health or state of mind. When clients shift their focus from the market to their legacy, we know we’ve created a plan they can trust.
