About Danny G. Michael, CFP®, RLP®, MSBA Retirement requires making decisions that will impact my clients for the rest of their lives. So the first thing I do is help them define for themselves what a fulfilling, deeply satisfying retirement looks like. Once they have complete clarity on what they want, I put my advanced degrees in finance and tax-planning to work getting that for them. It’s also important that my clients know I have no hidden agendas. As a Certified Financial Planner™ and Registered Life Planner®, I provide completely transparent retirement planning and my team acts 100% in their best interests. We make no commissions off the financial products clients invest in and we charge no hidden fees. For 20 years, I’ve led clients through the maze that is retirement planning and I love knowing that they’re fully enjoying this phase of their lives and not worrying whether or not their financial resources can support their most fulfilling retirement. There’s nothing worse than realizing after you retire that your planning was incomplete. Let’s work together so that you can enjoy the comfortable, confident retirement you’ve earned.

Hi, I’m Alan Nelson, Founder of Measured Money Maneuvers. My “money” story began many years ago with my decision to enlist in the Navy. At the time, I was independent and living on my own, attending community college and working full-time to make ends meet, but was not really sure what I wanted to do with my life, and didn’t want to get shackled into a ton of student loan debt and paying it off into my 30s and 40s. So, I raised my right hand and took the oath with the goals to serve our country, learn valuable skills, hopefully figure out what I wanted to pursue in life, and get my college education paid for…or at least get the GI Bill to assist with college later. Like many young enlisted starting out, in the first two years, my two roommates and I were fooled by the predatory insurance salesman and purchased a whole life policy as an “investment” with the promise of the “guaranteed” 7% rate of return. Thankfully, we had some senior enlisted leaders that knew better and told us to get out of it immediately before the 30-day window closed and we’d have had to pay a huge surrender fee to get out. This was my initial wake-up call that I needed to learn more about personal finance and investing. I was fortunate to earn a commissioning program within a couple years and while I initially thought I’d transition out in 6-8 years, I went on to serve a 25-year career as a submarine officer. As a young junior officer, I wanted to help my Sailors holistically – professionally, personally and of course, financially. Many young service members make poor early financial decisions that can take them years to recover from due to: 1) lack of financial literacy, 2)having their own paycheck for the first time in many cases and, 3) being the target for many unprincipled salespeople. Despite also working at an innovative high-tech company with brilliant engineers, I realized quickly these highly-educated people still didn’t know much about personal finance. People asked how I knew so much, so I offered an initial lunch and learn. The feedback was so positive and by the second seminar, it became undeniably clear that helping people with money to live their best life was my passion and I knew I needed to earn my credentials as a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ Professional. While I will continue to educate, I realized that I could truly help more people by starting my own fee-only, fiduciary registered investment advisor (RIA) firm, Measured Money Maneuvers LLC.

My earliest memory of money is watching my mom sort through her large wallet of department store credit cards at the cash register to find the right one for payment. As a kid, it taught me that credit cards were normal and I didn't hesitate to get my first card as an adult. Our early experiences shape our relationship with money, making financial planning deeply personal. Everyone’s journey is unique, and I love learning about your life to create tailored advice that helps you live your best life. My personal journey includes: - Joining a fintech startup as the 4th employee, where I learned to pivot and adapt quickly. - Working with high-earning professionals, which taught me advanced tax-planning strategies. - Teaching financial education webinars, where I honed the ability to simplify complex concepts. We specialize in: - Working wealth accumulators with no minimum for asset management - Equity compensation planning (RSUs/ISOs or NSOs, ESPP) and IPO planning - Proactive tax planning - Working with single retired women Every day, I’m grateful to serve people.

I created Madi Manages Money using what I’ve learned working as an investment analyst and financial planner over the past decade. I’m proud to hold both the Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) and Certified Financial Planner (CFP®) designations. Unlike most money experts and #finfluencers you find on TikTok, I’ve made investment decisions with billions of dollars at my day job. Everything changed when I gave birth to my daughter. Like you, I wanted to provide for her in every sense of the word, including financially. It occurred to me that other moms feeling the same drive could use help acting on it because it seems the parenting books forgot the chapter on what to do with your money. Let me help you lead your family to financial success. - Madi What you can expect from me: 1. Simplicity: I believe the financial industry overcomplicates matters; simple yet effective strategies can result in substantial progress. 2. Integrity: Pursuing designations like CFA & CFP shows my commitment to high professional standards. 3. Accountability: I expect clients to take action on my recommendations for financial success. 4. Authenticity: Being my true self empowers others, especially younger women seeking advice.

I’m an advice-only financial planner based in North Bethesda, MD. I offer three services: The Hour, The Plan and The Clubhouse.
