Fee Schedule
Effective February 2026
At In The Money Retirement Planning, I offer modular financial planning services.
That means we can go as deep — or stay as focused — as you need.
​
Some clients want a full, comprehensive retirement roadmap.
Others want help solving one specific problem — like Roth conversions, tax planning, Social Security timing, or preparing for a business sale.
​
You only pay for the planning you actually need. Nothing more.
​
Fee-Only. No Commissions.
I am a fee-only financial planner.
I do not receive commissions.
I do not accept referral fees.
I am not paid to recommend one product over another.
That matters because when compensation doesn’t depend on selling something, conflicts of interest are minimized. My focus stays where it belongs — on helping you make smart decisions that move your life forward.
For many families and business owners, this structure doesn’t just create clarity — it can save significant money over time.
​
Transparent Pricing
​
After your complimentary consultation, I can usually provide a clear quote.
​
If we stay within the agreed scope of work, you won’t be charged incremental hourly fees. No surprise invoices. No ambiguity.
​
If your needs change, we can always adjust to fit your needs.
​
Everything is discussed upfront.
​
