Biography


If you're like many people, you’ve worked hard. You’ve played by the rules and saved for retirement. Now, the world has changed, and you don’t know what tomorrow will bring. You want to regain the feeling of control and financial independence that you worked a lifetime to achieve.We’d like to help. As an independent, fee-only advisor firm, we work for our clients—and no one else. You’ll see the difference in everything we do.Our principal is C. Andrew Millard, CFP®. Andy has a way of viewing the world from several angles at once, of making the complex simple, and of helping our clients emerge from confusion to clarity. Communicative and proactive: In order for you to feel comfortable with your investments, we believe it is important for you to hear from us often. We educate our clients in a number of ways: weekly email updates, periodic phone calls, written quarterly reports, and individual consultations are all part of the client process. In addition we host frequent client events, mostly educational, but sometimes social—and always fun.
