There’s a new sign on Piccadilly Street!

One of our favorite things about this location is the neighborhood. We’re just a few steps from the George Washington Hotel, a Wi******er landmark dating back to 1924, and an easy walk from everything that makes Old Town such a great place to spend an afternoon.

If you're coming to see us, leave a little time to explore:

• Walk the shops and restaurants along the Old Town Walking Mall

• Step inside the stunning Handley Library, a Wi******er landmark since 1913

• Find Wi******er’s famously oversized — and claimed “World’s Largest” — Apple

• Or simply take in the historic architecture and character of downtown

And if you’re nearby, keep an eye out for our new sign!

Keith recently went "Back to School." 📝

Only this time, it was to help teachers prepare for retirement.

As a former educator himself, Keith enjoyed helping local teachers better understand their retirement benefits and plan for the years ahead.

Here’s to a great school year!

Retirement Tax Strategies

We've hosted several workshops in recent weeks focused on retirement tax strategies.

The conversations may happen in different rooms, but many of the questions are the same:

How will withdrawals from my 401(k) or IRA be taxed?
Could Roth conversions help?
How could required distributions affect my taxes and Medicare premiums?
Am I making decisions today that could create a larger tax bill later?
Retirement tax planning is not simply about paying less tax this year. It is about creating a coordinated strategy for how your income, investments, Social Security, and retirement accounts work together over time.
Join our waiting list to be notified when the next workshop is announced.

Grateful for the opportunity to spend time recently with financial advisors from across the country, sharing tax planning strategies for retirement.

It’s an honor to be invited into rooms like this, especially alongside professionals who are deeply committed to serving their clients well.

Tax planning doesn't end in December.

There may still be ways to improve your 2025 tax situation before the filing deadline—but they require action.

If you’re nearing or in retirement, how your income is structured matters.

Tax Strategies for Your 401(k) and IRA — pictures from another great workshop in Wi******er!

We often hear from people nearing retirement:
"Won’t my taxes just be lower once I stop working?"

Maybe.

The outcome can depend on the planning done before and during retirement.

Between RMDs, Social Security taxation, and retirement account withdrawals, taxes can look very different from what many people expect.

Appreciated all the thoughtful questions and conversations with those who attended.

We look forward to continuing the discussion at our next workshop on March 16 in Richmond.
