What will your plan look like?

Five Things Money Can Do For You

Which is most important to you?

The Madrona Wealth Plan is a custom-made financial plan for those whose net worth is $500,000, $2.5 Million, or even $25 Million.

Growth

Risk doesn't mean reward. Risk means potential reward. There are many ways you can grow your wealth. The trick is to allocate your portfolio so you have enough growth potential without taking too much risk or compromising your quality of life.

Cash Flow

During your working years, cash flow is typically easy to solve. Your cash flow comes from your work and some of your investments. Once you retire, you'll need to take your portfolio and use it to generate cash flow. There's more than one way to generate cash flow in retirement. It just depends on how you want to solve for it.

Liquidity

Have the flexibility to access assets at anytime is nice, but it comes at a cost. Too much liquidity can create problems when you retire. Chances are, you don't need access to all of your money at any given time. How much liquidity do you need now and in the near future?

Protection

Once you become rich, your jobs is to stay rich. Sometimes, that means taking less risk so you can preserve at least a part of your portfolio. There are many ways you can protect your wealth. How much should be protected? Which strategy is right for you?

Tax Advantages

Depending on how you allocate your investments within your portfolio, it may be tax efficient or it may create tax problems. Have you consider the tax implications of your strategies?

Cash & Cash Equivalents

It starts now, even if you are not retired. Lifestyle Planning focuses on planning for income and expenses so that you can maximize your quality of life.

How do you want to live your life today, tomorrow, and in years to come?

Bond Market

There is no such thing as a perfect investment. With Growth Planning, you can strategically diversify your investments on multiple levels so that your wealth grows, based on the purpose that drives it.

Are your assets growing in the right direction so that they can do what you want them to do?

Equities (Stock) Market

A market crash may be one of the biggest fears people have, but it's not the only way you could lose your wealth and quality of life. Protection Planning focuses on how to minimize the different areas you may be at risk so that you can sustain your quality of life and wealth

.Don't lose it right before you need it. Are you protected?

Insurance Products Market

Taxes will most likely be your biggest expense for the rest of your life. Did you know that getting to a zero-tax bracket for the rest of your life may end up costing you more in taxes overall? Tax Planning allows you to work with an advisor and a CPA so that you pay the least amount of taxes possible. 

How money could you save from tax planning?

Real Estate Market

Long-Term Care is a conundrum. If you can afford it, you probably don't need it. If you need it you probably can't afford it. Healthcare Planning is a deep dive into the different options you have available to you while looking at your Medicare/Medicaid plans so that you can be prepared for potentially rising medical expenses. Anticipate the possible expenses while it's still cheap. The options available to you may surprise you.

Want to see other options that may be a better fit for you?

Alternatives Market

When correct planning is done, you may find that you have extra funds that you want to give. Whether it is to your family, the local church or charities, or something else, you don't need to wait until you pass to give. Gifting Planning focuses on efficiently passing your generosity while you are alive so that you can enjoy watching others receive your gifts.

 Where do you want to send extra funds?

Relationships can be lifted or ruined over how your legacy planning is done, or not done. Determine the legacy you want to leave without compromising others.

Do you have the necessary estate documents?

Our Advisors

Our advisors are held to the fiduciary standard. That means they are legally bound to do what is in your best interest. Their primary focus is

Our CPAs are trained in proactive comprehensive tax planning. Once you become a client of Madrona Financial, you’ll be able to work with our

CPAs as needed.
