About

Stages Planning Group provides financial planning, consulting and investment portfolio design and management to individuals, families, businesses, retirement plans and nonprofit entities. The firm operates on a fee-only basis and offers both project-based and ongoing planning services alongside discretionary asset management held at independent custodians.

Its investment approach combines Fundamental Analysis with Modern Portfolio Theory to develop asset allocations tailored to each client’s goals and risk tolerance, and the advisor reviews external portfolios to ensure consistency with the overall plan. Portfolios are typically managed on a discretionary basis with periodic rebalancing; the firm does not engage in options, margin trading, or performance-based fee arrangements.

A notable characteristic of the practice is the unusually large number of client relationships it serves—over 300—which is uncommon among similar independent firms and suggests a focus on scalable planning and oversight workflows. The firm also discloses a prior client-acquisition arrangement, does not accept commissions or insurance sales by supervised persons, and executes trades on a per-account basis rather than routinely batching block trades.

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.
