Overview
Kevin Stone had just sold his consulting firm and wanted to put the proceeds to work — safely. With a SEP IRA and taxable accounts, he had a solid base, but needed a long-term plan.
We helped him roll over the SEP IRA into a fixed annuity that guarantees income for life, regardless of how the market performs. We also created a legacy plan to transfer unused assets tax-efficiently.
Today, Kevin has dependable monthly income and doesn’t have to second-guess his financial future.
