Michelle

After her divorce, Michelle was ready for a change. Michelle wanted a female advisor she could talk to. She was smart, independent and successful. However, she didn’t feel confident making complicated financial decisions. She felt like she needed someone who could take the time to explain things, without pressure or conflicts of interest. We:

Simplified and consolidated her investments
Created a one-page financial plan, relieving much of Michelle’s worry
Agreed to a custom communication plan, just right for Michelle

Advised her on other life issues, including keeping her finances safe

Michelle says, “I need someone to talk to about financial issues. Who else do I have? My advisor at A&I is a huge help, and a good friend!” Although the divorce was expensive, it is past. Her financial advisor gives Michelle confidence that her future is bright.
