WHY TUSK

Because Peace of Mind Shouldn't Arrive Last.

Financial success creates opportunities—but it can also create more moving parts to protect. Retirement income, insurance, long-term care, family responsibilities and business interests should not be considered in isolation.

TUSK helps bring those pieces together. We start with the risks that could disrupt your financial life, review the resources you already have, and help evaluate strategies designed around your priorities.

A Different Starting Point

Most financial conversations begin with a product. We believe the better starting point is the problem that needs to be solved.

What happens to your income in retirement? What happens if you need extended care? What happens if illness or disability interrupts your ability to work? What happens to the people or business that depend on you?

Once those questions are understood, the financial tools can be evaluated in the context of the larger plan.

How TUSK Works

Understand the Situation

We begin with your family, income, assets, retirement plans, business interests, existing insurance and the financial concerns that matter most to you.

Identify the Risks

We identify events that could disrupt the plan—including longevity, market volatility, loss of income, death, disability, long-term care needs and business-related risks.

Review What You Already Have

Existing insurance, annuities, retirement accounts, pensions, Social Security, business assets and other resources should be understood before considering something new.

Evaluate the Strategies

When a gap exists, we help evaluate appropriate insurance and retirement-income strategies, explain the tradeoffs and coordinate implementation when you decide to proceed.

One Financial Life. Several Different Risks.

TUSK focuses on areas where insurance, retirement income and risk management intersect.

Retirement Income

Evaluating how retirement assets may be converted into dependable income while balancing liquidity, longevity and market risk.

Life & Legacy

Protecting people, obligations, businesses and legacy objectives through appropriately designed life insurance strategies.

Health-Related Financial Risk

Preparing for the financial consequences of disability, chronic illness and long-term care needs.

What You Can Expect From TUSK

Education Before Decisions

You should understand what you own, what is being proposed and why it may—or may not—fit your objectives before making a decision.

Strategy Before Product

The name of a financial product matters less than understanding the problem it is intended to solve, its contractual provisions and the alternatives available.

Coordination

Insurance and retirement decisions can affect beneficiaries, estate planning, taxes, businesses and family finances. When appropriate, we coordinate with clients' attorneys, CPAs and other professional advisors.

Ongoing Review

Life changes. Financial circumstances change. Policies and retirement strategies should be periodically reviewed as needs and objectives evolve.

THE TUSK PHILOSOPHY

“Awareness isn't a product. It's knowing what could disrupt the plan before it happens.”

Good risk management cannot eliminate uncertainty. It can help you understand where financial vulnerabilities exist and make informed decisions about which risks to retain, reduce, transfer or prepare for.

The objective is straightforward: protect the financial life you've worked to build while preserving the flexibility to enjoy it.

You Don't Need to Know Which Product You Need.

You only need to know what you want your financial life to accomplish and what concerns you about protecting it.

The first conversation is designed to establish direction, review your existing situation and determine whether there is anything TUSK can meaningfully help you improve.
