Marion Financial Advisors is an independent, fee-only financial and investment advisory firm. I work with clients who want to get better control of their finances and become more knowledgeable financial consumers. I first see my clients when they come to me with a problem . . .We are contributing to our 401k plans but we don't know if we are putting the money into the right investments. We also want to start saving for our kids' college education but are not sure how we should be doing it.We want to retire in ten years but don't know if we have saved enough to retire comfortably.I am retired and don't know how much I can spend without running out of money.My husband died last year and he handled all of our finances. I don't know anything about this stuff. I find that although many people have concerns like these, they often don't address them because they are too busy or just don't know where to start. I work with clients to deal with these pressing issues. We then work together to define what their values and goals are and then develop an integrated financial plan in line with these values to achieve these goals.
