I founded Earndex to help others find and remain on a path to financial security. I have deep expertise in all subject areas of financial planning including investments, retirement planning, insurance, tax planning, employee benefits, estate planning, and more. My job is to ensure you stay on course to achieve your long-term financial goals. While I work with a broad range of clients, I have significant experience working with business owners, particularly with solo service providers. Outside of work, I am a dedicated husband and father of two. I enjoy skiing, golf, and cooking for family and friends.

Mike founded Whitford Financial Planning after working in the financial services industry for 25 years. He learned the importance of planning ahead and giving back by observing his parents manage their household finances. Mike wanted to become an advisor so he could help people make informed financial decisions. He started his career with Vanguard in a mutual fund accounting role but quickly realized he wanted to work directly with clients. While at Vanguard he completed the Certified Financial Planner (TM) coursework and first became an advisor. Mike then transitioned to Rodgers & Associates where he was able to provide more in-depth tax and retirement planning services and helped to build and manage a team of advisors. At Whitford Financial Planning, we specialize in retirement, taxes, and inheritance planning. Our comprehensive services are designed to coordinate your investments, tax strategies, retirement income needs, insurance, and estate planning goals.

I founded Overture Wealth Management to help pre-retirees, retirees, and small business owners make smart, tax-efficient financial decisions. My approach emphasizes clear guidance, low-cost investing, tax minimization, and disciplined portfolio management. When I launched my firm, I began my career at UBS in Pittsburgh in 2003. Early in my career, I recognized that the traditional brokerage model didn’t fully align with my vision of putting clients first. I joined Vanguard in 2004, where I spent 14 years developing expertise in retirement planning, investor education, and portfolio management. Before founding Overture, I served for six years as a Wealth Manager at a Philadelphia-based RIA, advising high-net-worth families, small business owners, physicians, and executives. I hold both the CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER® and Chartered Financial Analyst® designations and live near Philadelphia with my wife and two daughters. Outside of work, I enjoy skiing, biking along the Schuylkill River Trail, and cheering on the Steelers and Pitt Panthers. Whether you’re nearby in the greater Philadelphia area or elsewhere in the U.S., I’d be happy to arrange a complimentary introductory meeting to discuss your financial goals.

I often hear two common questions from my clients: "Am I saving enough for retirement?" and "How can I reduce my tax burden?". These are crucial questions that need comprehensive and objective financial planning. I’m passionate about helping my clients find financial clarity and achieve their financial goals with personalized planning and investment strategies, with a special focus on tax planning. My mission is to help individuals, families, retirees, and business owners make wise financial decisions and effectively grow, manage, and protect their assets throughout life's various and often complex transitions. As a fee-only financial planner and fiduciary, I always put my client's interests first. I never receive any commission or incentive and I have an obligation to provide unbiased and trustworthy financial advice. I’m happy to offer flexible fee arrangements for clients who wish to manage their own investments. I am a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ professional as well as a Pennsylvania-licensed Certified Public Accountant. I live in Delaware County, Pennsylvania with my wonderful wife, Whitley, and our beautiful daughter.

Hi, I’m Bob Falcon. I'm the President and Founder of Falcon Wealth Managers LLC and College Funding Solutions LLC. I leverage my unique skills as a CPA (Tax) along with my CFP(R) to provide tax-efficient financial and retirement advice to my clients. As a Certified College Financial Consultant, I help families to minimize the cost of college by (1) making sure they get the financial or merit aid they are entitled to, and (2) identifying great colleges that are not on their list where they can obtain significant aid. After graduating from Villanova with a BS in Accounting, I started my financial services career working 9 years in public accounting as a CPA in Tax. I rose to the Manager level in a Big 4 Accounting firm, then broadened my expertise by earning an MBA at Kenan-Flagler Business School (UNC-Chapel Hill). Today, my goal is to make sure my clients do not pay any more tax than is legally required so that they (not the government) can enjoy their lifetime savings. As a self proclaimed "Tax Geek with Personality," I revel in helping my clients to pay as little tax as possible. I help my younger clients with their executive compensation (stock option) strategies as well as optimizing their employee benefit selections. For those nearing retirement, I develop individualized multi-year tax strategies that allow them to minimize their taxes on retirement savings withdrawals and to optimize their Social Security election strategy. In the end, I want all my clients to share their wealth with their children, grandchildren, and their charities instead of with the government.
