Hi, I’m Jeremy Eppley, a fee-only financial planner and investment manager based in Maryland, serving clients virtually across the country.

Mike focuses his energy into helping clients navigate all of their financial needs. His experience includes a stint on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange, a career focused on investments at Brown Advisory and insurance at Securian Financial. During these experiences, he learned that a balanced approach and strategic financial planning is what can help clients achieve their goals. When not talking to clients or researching the next great opportunity for them, Mike & his wife enjoy quiet city living and relaxing whenever their new daughter allows. He loves playing soccer, lacrosse, golf, basketball… and really any sport. When he’s not meeting friends or family at the movies or the local watering hole, you can normally find him reading something very nerdy, like science fiction or financial science.

I get it. Finding a Financial Planner that is a good match for you is not easy. The alphabet soup of credentials and terms can be confusing. I will take as long as you like to talk through all your questions. We serve individuals and families (Baby Boomers, Gen X, Gen Y/Millenials, and Gen Z), entrepreneurs, self-employed individuals, ultra high net-worth families, trusts, intergenerational families, baby boomers, entertainment industry professionals, startup founders, business owners, and small businesses. We help our clients with holistic financial planning including: retirement planning, investment planning & management, business planning, wealth management, new wealth planning, income planning, estate planning, charitable giving, portfolio management, home buying, cross-border planning, and tax planning. I have been fortunate to have served families and individuals from Alaska and California to Texas and Massachusetts and all over Virginia, Maryland, and DC (13 states so far) while based in Fairfax, VA. Why? Because we have everything needed to be your guide in a changing landscape. Like most established firms, at Your Best Path, we offer comprehensive financial planning, retirement planning, investment management, and more to help our clients build the life they really want. However, there are a few aspects of our practice that differ from the great majority of planners. – My mission is to help people align their values and their investments so they can stop supporting the companies that are destroying the systems that make life on Earth possible. I am a leader in sustainable, responsible, and impact investing (SRI), having received the CSRIC designation – the first-ever certification for studying investing while considering environmental, social, and governance factors. If you want it to, your portfolio can reflect your specific values, not just a cookie-cutter index from fund managers who don’t even vote their shares. – We have extensive experience working with tech professionals, managers, and executives with equity compensation (RSUs, Options, ESOPPs, and deferred comp.) – We also have expertise developed over years of working with clients from many branches of the Federal Government, so I understand the intricacies of their various benefit programs. –I have no asset minimum and am happy to work with those with less, but am ready to serve those with substantial wealth.

If you are analytical, love details, and have higher standards and expectations for your financial advisor, we should talk. Our service model is high touch, very personalized, and as detailed oriented as you can get. We specialize heavily in retirement income planning and customization. We also pride ourselves in our very in depth, proactive tax planning. We are veteran-owned, real fiduciaries, and would love the opportunity to show you what we can do.

Hi, I’m Robert Lindstrom, founder of Provision Financial Planning (PFP). My own unique journey has culminated in PFP. Just like it is important for me to understand my clients’ past experience as it relates to money, it’s important that you know my history in this field. I became interested in investing and personal finance at a young age. I was going to do something related to finance but I began my career in 2010 on the heels of the Great Recession. I felt fortunate to find any job, much less one in “financial services”. What a blessing this turned out to be. Beginning my career in “wealth management” planted the seed. It was here where I was encouraged to obtain the CFP designation. This really opened my eyes to the importance of financial planning instead of just investment management. The CFP® designation covers dozens of areas of financial expertise is recognized as the standard of excellence for the financial planning profession. Pursuing this desire to do more than investments, I ended up taking a position that would allow me to do financial planning. However, this position was primarily a commission-driven sales role. While I learned a lot, this was not a good fit for me. It wasn’t all bad. I now have a much better understanding of how various products work (and don’t work) and the sales-driven financial piece of my industry that is unfortunately so prevalent. It was my next role where things really started to take shape. I ended up working at a Fee-Only firm that had deep tax expertise. I immediately felt at home in this fee-only compensation model because I could focus on planning instead of selling. Being a Fee-Only advisor means I don’t sell any financial products for a commission or receive other revenue sharing. This means I’m only compensated directly by my clients, which eliminates many of the conflicts so prevalent in my industry. I’ve also been exposed to several different investment philosophies in my career. A lot of industry experts claim to be able to time the market or identify the next hot sector or stock, either themselves or by picking active funds that try to. The data shows this is unlikely, and even risks large underperformance. While it may sound counterintuitive at first, you’re paying us to prudently manage a portfolio for you instead of seeking to outperform by timing the market. This brief history has culminated in me founding Provision Financial Planning in 2019 as a proud fee-only firm.
