Hi! I'm Kevin Lam, and I am the owner of Age Wisely Financial. With more than four decades of accumulated financial wisdom, I guide you (or your parents) in gaining understanding, making decisions, and taking action in such key areas as: • Purpose in Life: crafting a Life Purpose Statement • Income Stability: analyzing Social Security, pensions, investments, annuities • Portfolio Review: assessing asset tax status and allocation for alignment with goals and safeguards • Withdrawing from Investments: evaluating Target Funds, Guardrails, Bucketing, Bond Ladders • Medicare: reviewing current and projected health care costs and coverage • Roth Conversions: potentially lowering taxes in future years • Required Minimum Distributions (RMD): reducing through Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCD) and Qualified Longevity Annuity Contracts (QLAC) • Inheriting an IRA: untangling the complexities of the Required Beginning Date (RBD), 5-year, 10-year, and other rules • Donor Advised Funds (DAF) and Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCD): using strategies to meet your philanthropic goals and reduce tax • Loss of Spouse: mitigating “widow/widower’s tax penalty” + maximizing Social Security survivor benefits • Long-Term Care: searching for affordable choices • Reverse Mortgage: evaluating for appropriate use in accessing home equity • Aging in Place Modification: assessing home changes for continued independent living • Care Facility Search: helping locate care facilities • Identity Theft and Fraud Prevention: using available protection tools • Legacy Vision: communicating values and memories to future generations • Trusts: explaining use of Intentionally Defective Grantor Trust (IDGT), Grantor Retained Annuity Trust (GRAT), Domestic Asset Protection Trust (DAPT), Qualified Personal Residence Trust, (QPRT), Charitable Remainder Trust (CRT), and other advanced trusts. I serve you on a flat-fee basis. For individuals, $4,500. For couples, $6,000. I also serve you as Advice-Only. This means I provide recommendations for your asset portfolio (and your entire financial ecosystem), but you are always in command of your assets. You do not pay me any Asset Under Management (AUM) fees. You do not need to transfer any of your accounts. Let's talk. Let's work together to understand your concerns and goals, figure out your choices, and help you navigate your best course of action. Let's gain you comfort in your mind, and heart.

My passion is bringing clarity and confidence about money and a feeling of security to the families who have entrusted me to guide them. I have more than 25 years of experience working with hundreds of families and pair that with deep technical knowledge to help you maximize your financial life. Working with me, we’ll first address your biggest concerns and agree on what areas to prioritize. Then we’ll identify and address gaps across all aspects of your financial plan. Retirement and goal planning, investments, and taxes are often the primary issues to address, but over time we will also review your estate plan, insurance, employee benefits, and just about any other financial issue that may come up. I especially love working with those who are philanthropically minded, helping them maximize their charitable giving to support the causes they love. I work on a flat-fee basis, primarily with ongoing relationships but can also provide 1-time plans. I am also “advice-only”, meaning that I do not control or directly manage your investments. I do provide specific and actionable investment recommendations and can help you implement changes. I believe in low-cost, passive strategies and believe that simpler is almost always better. There are no asset minimums, but I find that I work best with mid to late-stage professionals approaching or transitioning into retirement. I primarily meet virtually and can serve clients across the country. Always 100% Fiduciary, never any products to sell you. Pricing can vary depending on complexity, but usually consists of an initial start-up fee of $2500, then $475 monthly for as long as we agree that I am providing value. 1-time engagements typically range from $4,000 to $6,000. In addition to being a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ professional, I hold the Accredited Estate Planner (AEP®) and Tax Planning Certified Professional (TPCP®) designations, a master’s degree in Personal Financial Planning, and am a Chartered Advisor in Philanthropy (CAP®). I live in Newark, Delaware with my wife Maria, and together we have 3 wonderful children, Allie, Zach, and Josh. I am involved in the community with several organizations and non-profits.

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.
