Helping You Sustain Your Legacy

No one ever said creating wealth was easy. On the contrary, it takes time, talent, perseverance, commitment, and attention to detail. When you are devoting the better part of your energies to building your personal wealth, how do you find the time to manage it? Many people have a ready response to this... they don’t! What many people want is someone with the expertise, integrity, and experience to coordinate all their personal financial goals into a cohesive plan for reaching financial independence and abundance.

At Clifford Financial Planning, Inc., we believe everyone will leave a legacy. The planners at Clifford Financial Planning, Inc. specialize in the Creation, Preservation, and Transfer of Wealth. To provide the long-term security found in your legacy, you must have a blueprint for success. In the same way that you would not build a home without a blueprint, sustainable, long-term financial success is most easily built as directed by a blueprint.

We work with our clients to identify and prioritize long- and short-term goals and then build the processes which may help enable them to achieve independence and abundance, and leave a legacy that extends beyond the life of the client.

Welcome to the Clifford Financial Planning Home Page

We hope your visit will help you understand the opportunities and potential rewards that are available when you take a proactive approach to your personal financial planning.

We have created this site as a resource for you to help you gain a better understanding of the concepts behind creating financial abundance and independence, such as: cash-flow planning, debt-management, insurance, investing, retirement, estate planning, and wealth preservation. If you desire, we also want to give you fast, easy access to market performance data.

You will find a wealth of information in the form of newsletter articles, calculators, links to trusted, informative sites, and research reports. We hope you take advantage of this information and visit us often. (Be sure to add our site to your list of "favorites" in your Internet browser, as we frequently update our information and wouldn’t want you to miss any developments in the area of personal finance.)

Our clients hire us to help them make well-informed decisions about money. We at Clifford Financial Planning, Inc. do that by creating a comprehensive, strategic roadmap to point our clients in the right direction toward achieving financial independence. Our relationship is based upon trusted ongoing financial planning, discipline, and guidance.

We are often asked, "Why do I need to pay a financial planner? I can do this myself." That might sound true, and people might be able to do this for a little while. But the stakes are too high; there is too much riding on it. This is about your financial freedom. If you fail in your financial planning efforts, if you lose your ability to retire in the manner you had hoped, you cannot start over. Then what? Social Security as a fallback plan? Work longer? Live on less?

Frankly, the risks are too high to guess at your financial planning and chance getting it wrong.

We hope that you will discover the value of working with skilled professionals which will enable you to pursue your financial goals. We are here not only to help educate you about the basic concepts of financial management, but to learn more about your financial goals and then craft, execute, and manage a Comprehensive Financial Plan created specifically for you.
