If I use you to develop a financial plan, am I obligated to purchase any products?

Absolutely not! I offer recommendations to meet your needs and objectives, but you are under no obligation to purchase anything.

The extent of my involvement in helping you implement your purchase of a product or investment is up to you. I can help you purchase investments and/or set up your accounts with a third-party custodian such as a discount broker. You can manage your accounts yourself or I will coordinate complete investment management. Since I am not compensated by others, you can be assured that my recommendations are based on what I believe is in your best interests. I take my fiduciary role seriously.
