About
Retirement Planning Specialists - Midwest provides financial planning and consulting to individual clients and refers investment assets to a third‑party money manager for discretionary portfolio management. The firm also offers free educational seminars and workshops and provides hourly financial planning and topic‑specific consultations.
RPS does not manage client assets directly; it exclusively refers accounts to a third‑party manager (Gradient Investments, LLC) and acts as a liaison, monitoring quarterly statements and relaying client instructions while the third‑party manager executes trades and bills advisory fees. Financial planning work is billed hourly and delivered on a project basis, and RPS does not take custody of client assets or exercise trading discretion.
Notable distinctions include that the firm’s principal maintains an active insurance business, spending roughly half of her time as an insurance agent and receiving customary commissions for insurance sales, a potential conflict the brochure discloses. The firm also disclosed a regulatory matter — a June 2024 consent order with the State of Nebraska related to transacting without registration and a payment of $8,720 — and, unlike most peers, RPS itself does not charge percentage‑of‑AUM advisory fees or provide direct portfolio management.

We'll help you think it through – whether you ultimately need an advisor or not.
Warmer provides personalized recommendations and introductions to independent fiduciary advisors. We do not supervise advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.
Each advisor listed on our site is an independent fiduciary responsible for their own advice. Warmer may receive fees from advisors for participation or referrals; these fees are paid by advisors and do not affect the fees clients pay for advisory services.
For advisor listings, we rely on sources including public filings and data provided by advisors, and we cannot guarantee that all information is current or accurate. Please review an advisor's Form ADV and do your own diligence before entering into an advisory relationship.
By using our service, you agree to Warmer's Terms of Service and Advisory Agreement and Privacy Policy. Logos provided by Logo.dev
