HELPING EDUCATORS

Get Simple Answers to Your  Questions.

COVID has been brutal on teachers and their students. When our partner Frank passed away, we decide to focus on giving educators the support they need to live happier, healthier, wealthier lives - and carry on his legacy. 

Why most teachers don't get good advice.

We've talked to, chatted with, or answered emails from over 4,000 teachers. Most are overwhelmed with the complexity of financial planning. Only about 5% have taken action and are on-track. The rest that have saved or invested have often been given bad advice or sold investment strategies that aren't appropriate. Many times they are going to retire and be broke. Here is why...

Callous Companies Create Complexity to Confuse

Are you confused about where to invest your money? It's not your fault. Big companies create complexity so you give up and just do what their salesmen suggest. They often suggest high-fee policies that result in your earning less.

Inexperienced Salesmen Incentivized to Sell Bad Policies

Because teachers don't earn a lot of money, many big companies send their least experienced sales people into schools. They are often well meaning, but only sell what their company has told them about.

WHAT TEACHERS SAY

I met with Steve wondering what would come of our conversation. Steve examined my financials including what I would possibly get from TPAF in retirement. He made several helpful suggestions and asked nothing from me, nor did he pitch me any product. I came away understanding my retirement situation more. I am always suspect of altruism but in this case, I believe it was real! :)

1. How much will I earn in retirement and will there be a gap between what I get and need?

96% of teachers nsert some text here that summarises this specific benefit that they can get from getting your product. Insert some text here that summarises this specific benefit that they can get from getting your product

2. How much money did I lose or gain in the COVID-market?

Ugh! Those 403b and other investment statements are almost impossible to understand. During our video meeting we can look at yours and help make sense of them.

3. Am I paying excessive fees on my 403(b) or other polices?

This is a really difficult question. The fees are often buried in complex language in small type. Variable Annuities are notorious for this. So is your spouses 401K by the way. But, we can dig into them even though it might take a bit more time than our initial 20 minute chat.
