Financial success doesn't happen by chance. It has much more to do with choice. Transforming aspirations into actuality takes acumen, hard work, discipline and strategic financial planning.

As your Wealth Management Advisor, Ross Kasner will listen, clarify and help prioritize your goals and aspirations before developing a financial strategy designed to help you achieve your vision for the future.

Ross explains his philosophy and process he utiizes in working with clients:

 

My business exists to help people achieve a higher quality of life. My mission is to help people articulate what is important to them and inspire them to make financial decisions in alignment with those values.

I shall make every conscientious effort to ascertain and understand all of the conditions surrounding those I serve.  In doing so, I will render the same service that I would apply to myself under the same circumstances.

When I initially meet with you I will take you through a process designed to help you discover what is most important about money to you.  We will discuss your goals and current financial situation and how they are interrelated. Typically the discussion includes your wealth accumulation strategy for retirement, your investment strategy, overall savings, insurance, legacy estate analysis, and education funding. Finally, I will propose action steps to help you bridge the gap between your current financial reality and your intentions.

When you agree to come on board as a client, we will establish a systematic timetable to proactively initiate the recommended strategies. Then, over time, we will monitor your progress and make adjustments as needed.

I work extensively with consultants, corporate executives, traders and business owners. My typical client is 36 - 66 years old, has children, loves his/her family, is fun to be around and is financially successful. Most of my clients live in the city, in the north, northwest and western suburbs.
