You have spent a lifetime building a strong foundation for your family, which includes your material assets and the less tangible, but no less important, values and principles that guide you. There are two very different paths that families like yours typically follow.
Many families with legacy wealth follow a path that leads to the eventual loss of their assets and the damage to their family harmony. The wealth of these families does not survive more than three generations.
A small percent, choose a different path, leading to multi-generational strength, prosperity and unity. Imagine if you could pass not only your material wealth, but also the values and wealth-building skills that you have learned and lived. What contributions to family and community might three generations empowered with those skills and attributes be able to make?

The entrepreneurial mind is always moving. If it’s not creating, building or managing, it’s consumed by all the details required to keep a company on its feet. Business owners face complex issues when it comes to retirement plans, portfolio management, estate planning, insurance planning, risk management, and business transfer planning. Add in the inevitable uncertainty, lack of clarity and an assortment of advisors who don’t know how to work together, and it’s not surprising that a majority of business owners haven’t found the time to finish and, in some cases, start their financial plan. Hightower Bellevue’s Entrepreneurial Services process helps create peace of mind surrounding your financial plan.

Retirement plans, like 401(k)s and Simple IRAs, are one of the most important employee benefits a business owner can provide. This important benefit can help your employees achieve their financial goals and can help you attract and retain your best talent. And since happier, financially secure employees lead to greater stability and productivity for your company, this simple tool can help your business flourish. However, many business owners face the repercussions of an incorrectly established plan. How can you ensure that you’ve optimized the financial benefit for yourself and your employees? How can you be confident that fiduciary standards are maintained? After all, you want your employees to understand, utilize and appreciate this benefit, not to expose yourself to undue risk. Hightower Bellevue offers a holistic approach to your business, including your company sponsored retirement plan.
At Hightower Bellevue, we place your interests first by designing a customized plan that seeks to provide the optimal benefits for you and your employees. We offer to educate your employees on your company’s plan and help them with their personal retirement planning, so they are fully utilizing this benefit. We make the administration of your plan easy, so you can spend more time on your business.
We all have dreams, goals and aspirations. These things are often dependent on prudent financial management. Whether you seek financial independence, educational funding, vacation homes, building a financial legacy, or funding institutional goals, these objectives all rely on a well-crafted financial plan. Even more intangible aspirations like personal fulfillment, meaningful relationships, and crafting legacy of values require a clear vision and a broader stewardship plan. Our financial planning process includes the four important key areas designed to help you achieve financial success. An additional fifth area then extends the process to create an alignment with your personal and family values to help you reach your personal vision.
