About
The ABC Squared provides financial planning services to individual clients through three tiers—Basic, Personalized, and Advanced—covering investment planning, retirement and tax strategy, life insurance, college planning, and business continuity or self-directed real estate. The firm reports no assets under management, does not custody or trade client investment accounts, and generally delivers advice as a one-time financial plan with optional follow-up work.
The firm tailors recommendations through an initial interview and may use model allocations, drawing on cyclical and fundamental analysis, modern portfolio theory, and technical analysis while advocating a long-term investment approach. Compensation options include fixed-fee and hourly planning engagements that are collected in advance; the firm does not participate in wrap programs or provide discretionary trading services.
Distinctive aspects include an affiliation with insurance activities and the acceptance of commissions on insurance product sales, a conflict of interest the brochure discloses and documents for clients. The Advanced Advice package—access to outside specialists (CPAs, attorneys), actuarial plan design, and self-directed real estate planning—along with the firm’s small, recently registered structure and volunteer focus on financial literacy, are atypical features for a firm of this size.

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
