I'm a retirement focused advisor with over 10 years of experience. I specialize in tax-efficient retirement planning and investment management for those that are retired or within a few years of retiring, all for a flat annual fee. I launched Free Time Financial in March 2025 after spending 10 years working for a Registered Investment Advisor firm who provided tax-efficient retirement planning, but charged for the service based on how large your investment accounts were. That model never made sense to me, and I finally left to build a firm on my own terms, where I could take wonderful care of a smaller number of families and charge them based on the complexity of the service and not on how wealthy they are.

Welcome! I’m Brett, and I’m glad you’re here. I’m a proud born and raised Buffalonian passionate about helping others make the most of their money and their lives as they navigate the transition into retirement. In 2019, I founded Eudaimonia Wealth; a fee-only financial planning firm in Buffalo, NY dedicated to helping local families retire on their terms by providing independent, objective advice. At Eudaimonia Wealth, we realize we can’t be all things to all people and don’t pretend to be. We specialize in helping people who are at or near retirement and need help putting the pieces together. We partner with families to help them generate income from their savings, optimize their investments, and create a tax-efficient distribution plan that supports their needs. Eudaimonia (pronounced you-day-mo-nia) is a term from Greek philosophy used to describe an ultimate state that could be achieved by living a life of meaning, purpose, and fulfillment. It was considered to be a state of “peak performance in the art of living,” and represents to the core what I believe real financial planning is all about.
