As your life changes, your financial plan has to be flexible enough to evolve with it. Throughout life you may change jobs, get married, have kids or grandkids, buy a house, start a new business, or inherit money. Almost all life events bring new financial risks and opportunities so you need a financial plan that changes with you. Our financial planning process is designed to help you make better decisions and allow you to use your money as a tool to live the life you want. We are committed to providing objective observations and delivering specific, actionable recommendations to help you create, grow, and keep wealth.

Your goals are unique and are the central focus of your financial plan. Gaulden & Associates works closely with clients to learn what matters to them most. We’ll help you make sure the most critical tasks are prioritized quickly, while carefully scheduling secondary tasks in the future so they’re not forgotten. This work helps set a path to achieving your goals, simplifying your financial life and allowing you to make smart choices through informed decisions.

Once we have identified your goals, our advisors create a strategy tailored to you with specific, actionable recommendations. We’ll look at the various paths you could take, evaluate the probabilities of success, then make a decision that aligns with your goals and values. When implementing your plan, Gaulden & Associates provides accountability, guidance, and advice along the way. We’ll periodically meet to review and adjust your strategy to make sure it remains in line with your current situation.
