Over time, your goals may change and evolve, and financial planning is an ongoing process of reevaluation and strategizing on how to best address your goals and objectives. This is best done in a comprehensive, holistic approach, which considers all aspects of your financial situation. Reaching each aspect, such as taxes, retirement, liquidity, investments, income and expenses, insurance, housing, leisure, estate planning, risk, and goals, aspirations, plans, hopes, and dreams.

4. What is your approach to financial planning?

White Turf believes each person is different and is in a different situation. What is right for one person may not be right for another, so personalization, and listening to each individuals concerns and needs is vital. The next focus is on realistic implementation. We all know we should save more and spend less, but much like a new year’s resolution, it is only as good as what actually gets done. Understanding the person behind the numbers, and the feelings each person has are central to ensuring proper advice is rendered.

At White Turf Financial, the range of clients includes all types, backgrounds, income levels, and professions.
