Rediscover The Power Of Excellent Planning
The New Standard
The old way financial advisors help you is to ask you a few short questions and recommend one of the products they sell that they think best fits what you say you need.
But that’s not going to cut it anymore. You want a resilient financial strategy – one that’s going to grow with you as your situation and the world changes. You want something that is designed specifically for your needs and your life – rather than a cookie-cutter approach that is wedged to fit where it doesn’t really belong.
This is the age of the new wealth manager – one that specializes in helping people just like you, who want a true partner with their financial goals and who’s able to look holistically at you as a person to help those financial goals align with your life goals in their entirety.
That’s where Resilient comes in.

No More Financial Salespeople
You no longer want a financial salesperson who’s only priority is their own commission or someone who will twist your arm and hard-sell you into becoming a client. In fact, you don’t want to hire an advisor that makes commission on what they sell you at all. The reason is simple: if they make commission on what they sell to you, they don’t have the initiative to ensure you’re successful.
The way we do it here at Resilient is different. Our fees are structured so that the better you do, the better we do. Which completely aligns our goals together: to build your wealth and create a high-performing financial plan.
We don’t sell financial products. We create solutions as your partner – combining our expert advice, years of experience and millions of dollars in success stories with your needs, your goals, and what you want to achieve. Together we build a plan that works for you and then discover how to bring that plan to life.
Ready To See What Your Options Are?
Giving You The Power Of Choice
The biggest power you can have is the power of choice. And when you find yourself working with someone who’s locked into specific options provided by a specific company… you remove the choice from your strategy.
When your choice is limited, you can’t can’t choose the way your goals are met. You can’t choose how your financial plan is structured. You can’t really even choose flexibility without jumping through hoops to get what you want.
Our entire firm is built around handing you the freedom, education and information you need to not only make choices – but to make informed decisions with the power of our experience at your back.
We’ll happily take over the entire management process for you so it’s not something you have to think about on a regular basis. But by allowing YOU to remain in control – we’re creating a plan that has YOU as the driver, instead of a meaningless catalog of financial products that may or may not fit your needs.

Your Wealth Snapshot

It’s all on the table because it all matters to your entire life. And because we don’t simply focus on one small area, we’re able to create greater outcomes for you that meet your needs in multiple areas.
