These are the questions that bounced around my own head until I took the leap and created Gen X Wealth Partners. I said to myself enough is enough. I’m offering you the job I wish I had. It’s a unique opportunity, and I am opening it up to you. No corporate nonsense, just the ability to spread your wings and help your clients fly. We are an independent firm by design to eliminate conflicts of interest and foster creativity. I have developed a process to help Gen X get on track financially. They have so many competing goals. They have so many planning needs yet, so few advisors speak to them. It’s crazy. The biggest one is saving for their retirement vs. saving for their child’s education. Our unique secret weapon is advanced college planning which helps them maximize their financial aid offers and uncover the right school at the right price for their child. There are enough advisors helping retirees. Come discover a budding niche with a ton of future potential. Gen X needs our help. If this sounds like you then keep reading.
