The Strategy Snapshot
WHERE ARE YOU NOW?

ARE YOU...
- Starting to think about retirement, but unsure where to begin?
- Managing your investments, but unsure that your current asset allocation meets with your risk tolerance or overall “view of the world”.
- Already retired and interested in principal preservation, guaranteed income and stability for the “safer” part of your portfolio.
- Aware of how “sequence of returns” affects your long term distribution strategy, especially in today’s richly valued equity market and above average 5 year recent returns.
- Mindful of the long term impact that rising inflation and volatile interest rates have on the bond portion of your portfolio.
WE MEET YOU WHERE YOU ARE.
Explore tailored, “financial science” based strategies based on your life stage, longevity expectation and risk tolerance.
THE CONSULTANT DIFFERENCE
An unpaid second opinion is simply a sales call.
At incomes and legacies, our fee-based consultants never earn commissions or receive assets under management (AUM) fees. While the company may, in certain circumstances, receive a finder’s fee from the issuing company, your consultant personally never does. We never take control of your assets, but if you hire us, we’ll help YOU take control.
After all, it’s YOUR money!

"I have known Tom for over a decade. He reached out to me after my wife passed and I appreciate his consultative and comprehensive approach. I look forward to continuing to use Tom as my financial sounding board. "
Richard H.
Leesburg, VA

"We have known Tom since before the financial crisis while he was at Navy Federal. He helped us make money thru our investments and then preserve our capital when we no longer wanted to worry about the stock market. He even came to our house and met with our son. Thanks Tom."
Jerry & Bobby M.
Haymarket, VA

"I'm a lawyer and I understand contracts. I wanted to find a bond alternative for a portion of my fixed income portfolio that was immune from interest rate volatility. Tom helped me find a suitable maturity date paired with a competitive interest rate."
