Merrill Lynch

I believe that financial success can be achieved when you're able to make investment-related decisions and trade-offs that can help you reach personally meaningful goals. Whether you're planning your retirement, saving to buy a home or funding a child's education, the process begins by getting to know you and how you feel about the following:* Health: Managing healthcare expenses, now and in the future* Home: Upsizing, downsizing, remodeling or buying a vacation home* Family: Taking care of your family and other people in your life* Leisure: Spending your free time in meaningful ways* Giving: Volunteering, mentoring others and giving to charities* Work: Working in retirement, selling or starting a business* Finance: Bringing it all together and defining your financial goals. Success will be measured by the amount of progress you are making toward reaching your goals, making thoughtfully considered adjustments as events and conditions warrant.
