Most people get risk wrong because they don't have goals attached to their money.
Without knowing when you plan to stop working or what you will need when you do, building a portfolio is just throwing darts blindfolded. That is the mistake we see most often.
If you have not attached goals to your investments yet, that is the conversation to start.

We are strong proponents of both spouses being in the room when building your Life Vision, and this is why.
Different ideas about risk, spending, and the future are completely normal. What does not work is one spouse operating without the other at the table.

Building a Life Vision when you are married means building one together. Full transparency, no games. That is how planning should work.

Many of us worry wonder whether our children and estates may be required to pay for any long-term care we received. Theres a trend in both federal and state law is to have children liable for those costs in some circumstances. Here's what to know.
Will Your Children Be Required To Pay For Your Long-Term Care? Many Americans worry that long-term care expenses will cause them to run out of money. They also should wonder whether, after they are deceased, their children and estates might be required to pay for any long-term care they received. The trend in both federal and state law is to have children liabl...
A client needed $400,000 and needed it quickly.
He assumed his options were limited. They were not. A securities-based line of credit let him cover the obligation in the short term, pay interest only, and build out a repayment plan that fit his timeline.
This is one of a handful of cash tools that most clients do not know exist until they need one. Between securities-based lines of credit, lending opportunity reviews, and strategic cash flow planning, there are usually more ways through a problem than people assume.
Part of our job is making sure clients know what is available before the moment arrives.

Self-Portrait with Two Circles, c. 1665–1669
In this commanding late self-portrait, Rembrandt presents himself with striking directness, standing before a mysterious backdrop marked by two faintly drawn circles.

The best time to give isn't always later.
A client once told Ken she would rather give with a warm heart than a cold hand. She wanted her kids and grandkids to feel her generosity while she was still here to see it.
Everyone is talking about the great wealth transfer. We think the more interesting question is what you do before it happens.
That is exactly the kind of planning The Rembrandt Society was built for: offering a planning-only option for those who want to give well, not just give eventually.
