Todd Buchner

I’m John C. Pak, a Certified Financial Planner™ and founder of Otium Advisory Group. My mission is to help time-starved professionals—those who barely have time for lunch—cut through the noise and finally feel confident about their financial future. With a clear, no-fluff approach to retirement readiness, I create simple, effective strategies designed to fit real life—not a textbook. I believe financial planning shouldn’t feel like a second job, so I focus on what matters most, eliminating the jargon and complexity that gets in the way. Aside from my life-long devotion to personal finance, my other passion point is teaching. I've been presenting retirement literacy courses at select Southern California Universities since 2014. I believe… - If you are open to the idea of prioritizing, organizing, and purging, you will save time and money. - If you change the way you see things, you will change the way you do things. - If you find someone to go along with you on your financial journey, you will have more success. Take advantage of the complimentary consultation. I look forward to sharing my vision of how we can get you to the finish line.

For over 10 years, Jason has been helping clients achieve their financial goals through transparent advice and client education. Prior to establishing Bluepoint Wealth Advisors, Jason spent nearly 6 years with The Vanguard Group in Scottsdale, AZ. Originally inspired by his grandmother’s adolescent hardships, he’s always been encouraged to help others find financial clarity. “My grandmother, who was a huge influence on my life, was a teenage girl during the Great Depression. Because she witnessed such financial hardship, she learned at a young age the importance of financial stability, and remained relatively frugal through most of her life. She instilled these values on my father, a financial advisor himself, who began educating me at a young age through our many road trips. In fact, the earliest lesson I recall was about mutual funds, and how I could buy a fund that contains Toys-R-Us, rather than buying the toy itself. What was initially a desire to learn more about my father’s job, quickly became valuable knowledge I knew could be used to help others. In 2013, I moved away from my friends and family, not knowing anyone in Arizona, to pursue a career with Vanguard. Given the indisputable morals behind Vanguard’s reputation, I could not think of a better company to begin my career, and to further enforce how success is achieved by putting client’s priorities ahead of one’s own.” Jason now looks forward to bringing that industry leading experience, and scaling it down to provide a more personalized relationship with each of his clients.
