ASCJ Wealth Management Group
Welcome
Our entire team shares a common goal: to help you achieve your personal financial goals, such as planning for and funding your children’s education, helping ensure that income can last in retirement, and planning for potential health care costs. Every step in the process takes into account your personal perspectives and priorities. Our goal is to help bring simplicity and transparency to the complexities of investing, turning the often-intimidating task of planning for the future into an exciting journey of helping you pursue and reach your goals.
Philosophy
You live in a world that’s constantly changing. Markets can fluctuate frequently. Potential investment opportunities can arise daily. Regulations are enacted or amended. That’s why understanding you and your situation is the best place to start helping you plan your financial future: where you are today, where you want to be tomorrow, and what you want to accomplish along the way. By understanding you and your priorities, we can more effectively provide you with the experience and resources needed to help you build a personalized plan that is rooted in the unique complexities of your life.
Approach
Working with us means working with advisors truly dedicated to helping you pursue your goals. The approach is simple, transparent and supported by thoughtful investment guidance aligned to the goals that matter most to you.
The value of the relationship with you includes:
- helping you make informed decisions
- recognizing your life priorities and goals
- understanding your investment style
- helping you prioritize and pursue goals
- being transparent by making possibilities, fees and risks clear
- taking steps to help you preserve income during a life challenge
- educating the younger generation about investments and the markets
Your approach to investing
Drawing upon research in the field of behavioral finance, Merrill developed the Investment Personality Assessment to help us get to know you better as an investor and potentially help you refine your own investing preferences. By gaining a deeper understanding of how you think and feel about investing through this assessment, we can customize the financial approach we develop together to help you pursue what matters most to you. Our Investment Personality Assessment is one of the ways to help us get to know you - to understand your goals and priorities. These questions will help us provide you with additional insights and resources.
Understanding your goals and priorities
Your life and goals change. We have tools to help you keep track of these changes so they can be reflected in your financial approach.
