Our services are best for anyone looking for a trusted fiduciary partner to help with ongoing financial, tax and investment decisions in preparation for, transitioning to, and throughout retirement.
What It Costs
Transparency is an integral part of being a fiduciary and this includes the fees we charge. We offer both Ongoing Financial Planning and Investment Management services.
We charge a recurring monthly fixed fee for Ongoing Financial Planning that ranges from $100 to $500 based on several factors such as complexity and specific needs of the client. This recurring fixed fee is paid monthly in arears, and billed through a third-party to the client’s bank account. Clients with $500,000 or more in managed assets shall receive Ongoing Financial Planning at no additional cost to the client.
The table below outlines our Investment Management Fees based on the assets that we manage. Fees are billed quarterly in arears, and deducted directly from client’s accounts at Charles Schwab & CO., Inc.

The Iron Mountain Financial Planning Process
Learn More Call With Brian (30 Minutes)
The first step in our process is a brief 30-minute call to learn more about each other. This is where we learn what is top of mind for you today and we’ll share a little about our process too. This is where we mutually decide if there is value moving onto the Discovery & Observation meetings.
Discovery Meeting (60 Minutes)
If we’ve both decided we’re a good fit after our intro call, this is our first in-office or Zoom meeting. You will receive a simple checklist of what information to gather before this meeting. We’ll get a clearer picture of your current financial situation, and dig into the questions that brought you to us in the first place.
Observations Meeting (60 Minutes)
This is where we give you some ideas to consider and some observations about your current situation and your plans for the future. This is also where you’ll have the full picture of how we will work together. We can schedule the next visit to sign forms to get our work together started, or feel free to take your time and sleep on it and let us know when you’re ready.
