After identifying their main goals and objectives while expressing their respective concerns and underlying fears, Michael and Mary scheduled a series of 1 to 2 hour meetings over a 3-month period. Each meeting was devoted to one element of their total financial plan. In this way, the couple felt more confident and had the space and time to ask important questions and avoided the feeling of being too overwhelmed. Technology was used to schedule virtual meetings, and to analyze current holdings.

A comprehensive financial and estate plan for Michael and Mary could help to identify strengths and weaknesses using various scenarios and simulations to account for changes in income, health and how insurance might mitigate some of those risks. Analyzing and stress testing investments to check alignment with their risk tolerance regularly at their age would be warranted. Engaging with Michael and Mary’s three children would be prudent to account for generational planning considerations.
