It’s a written plan for the gap between your last paycheck and Medicare and Social Security — when several important financial decisions often collide at once.

What does the Last Paycheck Plan cost?
There’s no charge for the Last Paycheck Plan.
It’s designed to help you understand where you stand today and what decisions need attention before you make any financial decisions.
Think of it like having your house assessed before you decide on renovations. First, you get a clear picture of what needs attention and what the project actually involves. Then you decide what kind of help, if any, makes sense — and whether you want us to provide it.
How do you get paid?
We don’t charge an upfront planning fee, or a recurring annual planning fee. There’s no cost to sit down with us and build a plan.
If you choose to open an investment account, purchase an insurance product, or have us manage investments for you, we may be compensated. Certain investment and insurance products pay us a commission, while ongoing investment management is compensated through an asset-based advisory fee.
You’re never required to implement anything through us. Before you make a decision, we’ll explain if there are any costs involved, how we’re compensated, and whether there are ongoing fees so you know exactly how the arrangement works.
Do I have to become a client afterward?
No. Some people may have what they need to move forward on their own. Others may want help implementing parts of the plan or ongoing guidance as decisions come up.
Either way, you’ll know what the next step is before you decide whether to take it.
