Many people avoid thinking too much about their finances beyond the short term. Wealth building feels like it’s for the uber rich. However, the right financial advice and planning can help every individual, family, and small business owner keep their money safe and meet their financial goals. Contrary to what one may think, a financial advisor doesn’t just offer investment advice, they can develop strategies to help you pay off your mortgage comfortably, plan the ideal beach retirement, or simply make sure you can take that perfect family vacation every year.

The Process
If you are new or have limited knowledge of how the world of financial planning works, you need a financial planner like Kara Day who provides unbiased advice and is bound by the highest fiduciary standards to act in the best interests of her clients.
As a potential client, you will first have an introductory meeting with Kara to understand your financial goals and how she can help you reach them. The next meeting involves an in-depth look at your current financial situation including liabilities, income, and expenses along with prioritizing short, medium, and long-term goals. She will also discuss your investment objectives and tolerance for risk to lay the foundation for building a financial plan during this time.
Using this information, she will analyze each area of your finances, look for any gaps or challenges in your current plan, and identify different opportunities to reach your financial goals before meeting you to present a bespoke financial plan. This is also where she explains recommendations with due context so that you can make informed decisions before the plan is implemented.
Once your plan is implemented, you can meet either annually or more frequently as you desire so that you know if your goals are being met, whether your plan needs to be tweaked to meet your evolving needs, or simply to learn how your money is growing.
