Craft Your Vision
We will work closely with you to understand your priorities, as education savings can cover a wide range of expenses. We listen to your expectations and the role education plays within your family, in order to craft a tailored plan.
Design Your Plan
Our process is designed to help individuals or families save and allocate funds for educational expenses, such as tuition, books, and living costs. It includes setting specific financial goals, estimating the costs of education, identifying sources of funding (e.g., 529 plans, savings, scholarships, loans), setting realistic saving targets, and creating a timeline for achieving these goals. The plan aims to ensure that individuals or their dependents can access quality education whether it is private secondary education, technical school, or undergraduate/graduate university degrees, among others, without facing significant financial burdens.
Navigate Education Together
Through our vast knowledge of financial aid, education costs, tax-efficient investment options, and utilizing sophisticated planning software, we continuously guide you to make the best decisions. We understand every family’s circumstances and financial situations are different and every child’s educational path is unique. Education planning needs to be flexible and adaptive; as your financial advisors, we will continually assess the educational goals of your family and adjust planning and strategies as needed.
Instill the Importance of Education
Watching your child walk across the stage to receive their diploma, land their first job, and become financially independent can be a great source of pride for any parent or grandparent. By proactively saving for your loved ones’ education, you not only provide them with the financial means but also reinforce the message that education is a lifelong journey worth investing in.
Gary and the WAM team went beyond offering investment advice by truly getting to know our family. This friendship truly enabled the WAM team to personalize our navigation through our working years and now into retirement. Consequently, we have met and exceeded our financial goals, we are living our best dreams, and we are secure in our vision for our latter years. Thank you, Gary and WAM!
Brian, Matt and the entire team were very patient and responsive. I feel like they really took the time to know me, my priorities, and my goals. This is exactly the type of relationship with a financial advising team that I was hoping to build.
We didn’t have all of the pieces put together in a clear picture until our engagement. Now we have a clear plan and a path to success.
I learned a lot about the process of planning for our future and our financial plan was professionally presented. I could see where our assets and income will come from to finance our retirement and what important actions need to be taken for the plan to be a success.
