Working with a fiduciary financial advisor takes the guesswork out of retirement planning. We will provide you with things to think about today, ideas to consider for your future, and if we choose to partner together, we will put it in writing.
Most families have done everything “right.” You worked hard, saved diligently, and followed the rules. But as retirement approaches or life shifts, you’re left wondering: Now what?
The financial world feels more complex than ever. Tax laws change, markets move, and far too often, the advice you get feels vague, generic, or disconnected from your real life.
Much of the industry still treats financial planning as a sales process… pushing products, chasing predictions, and speaking in jargon. That’s not a financial plan. That’s a transaction.
At Financial Enhancement Group, we care about Your Life After Work™ and you living the retirement you deserve. You need clear answers, not complexity. A team, not just an advisor. And a plan that addresses your entire financial journey, from retirement income and tax strategy to your legacy and the life you want to live.
That’s why we created the Family Focus® Process, built around the Five Critical Elements of your financial journey. It’s designed to help you reduce financial regrets, make confident decisions, spend without guilt, and pass on your values, not just your assets.
Joe and the FEG Team have been a part of our financial lives before retirement and afterward. As regular listeners of the ‘Consider This Program,' we decided to go to Joe and the Team for a consultation; shortly thereafter, we joined the FEG family. They helped us navigate retirement with social security and pension decisions and continue to advise us on the best strategies for gifting, tax planning, legacy planning, and the minefield of required minimum distributions. Knowing we are working with fiduciaries at FEG gives us peace of mind.

We have worked with Joe and the FEG Team as we prepared to retire and are now a few years into retirement. They helped our family separate from the workforce with a peaceful mind. They have worked with our children and us on tax planning and gifting strategies. They have also been instrumental in helping us with the legacy planning and unique challenges that many families face. Joe is more than a fiduciary. He is the definition of trust. He has earned our firm belief in his integrity, ability, and character. We are totally reliant on him.
