The Art and Science of Financial Success financial filosophy is a fee only financial planning firm based in New York City, that serves clients nationwide. The firm's philosophy is represented by how the firm's principal lives his life, splitting time between New York, California, and his home state of Texas. financial filosophy is able to provide face-to-face service to clients in these areas, and we are happy to service clients across the nation on a remote basis. Whether through remote or face-to-face contact, financial filosophy is committed to the art and science of our clients' success. At financial filosophy, there is a clear commitment to both the art and the science of financial planning. The science of financial planning is the most familiar and commonly known aspect. It’s the dollars and cents, the actuarial tables and historical data, the stock quotes and trend lines that, in the mind of an expert, consolidate into the elements of a financial plan. The art of financial planning is a more subtle thing – a way of looking at the data that includes a subjective, creative, value-infused vision of reaching goals. If the science is the brains, then the art is the soul. You are at the center of the process as a clear pathway is seen through the existing environment that leads you to your goal.... See More

McPherson Financial Advisors, Inc. is a holistic financial planning firm. Our commitment is to the client first and foremost. We do not require that you place your investments with us. Many of our clients are self-directed investors who realize the benefits of financial planning. Our approach to investing is a strictly index-based approach.
We take time to fully understand our client's goals and aspirations. Our recommendations are built not only from spreadsheets, but, more importantly, from an understanding of what will provide peace of mind to our clients.
We specialize in planning for retirees and pre-retirees. The decision to retire or perhaps to enter the next chapter of life is never made easily. Aside from the financial issues, there are behavioral considerations about how to find fulfillment if you are not generating income, and how to use your accumulated wealth to lead a satisfying life.
I focus on assisting clients to lead a fulfilling life in "retirement". I also pay close attention to the financial details, and I offer strategies that can reduce tax and the cost of investing just when you need those strategies to work as optimally as possible.
My ideal client is at least 50 years of age, has accumulated investment savings, and is either already living in retirement, or considering what life would look like without the demands of working full time.... See More
