About Our Company

Our Beliefs

Of the many principles that guide our work, the most important is trust. That means we start with listening to our clients, before speaking. Our goal is to understand you, your needs and expectations. Before offering any recommendations, we carefully consider your liquidity, risk tolerance, income requirements and time horizons.

We ensure that all of our clients meet or exceed their retirement objectives, by developing individually tailored lifetime retirement plans that ensure you will never outlive your income, no matter the market direction or how long you live. Our mission: To Protect and Grow Family Wealth! We are an independent financial planning firm in south Oklahoma City. We focus on creating income plans and operate as fiduciaries that serve our clients for their best interest. We offer insurance investments through Retirement Income Strategies, LLC and securities through Investment Strategies, LLC. We have been named as one of the Top 5 Financial Planners from The Oklahoman Reader’s Choice Awards for the last six years. Both of our advisors have been on local news stations and contributed to national news stories. We record weekly podcasts on a variety of retirement planning and financial topics and regularly host educational seminars on retirement planning, social security benefits and investments.
