Financial Planning

Optimal Wealth Strategies is an independent retirement planning firm,
overseeing and coordinating finances in Augusta, Georgia, and the
CSRA. Our mission is to provide the families and businesses we serve
with innovative financial strategies, solutions, and planning that result
in financial clarity and security. In the financial services industry,
there are generally two ways of obtaining financial advice: one is
given by stockbrokers and the other is given by investment advisors.
While many investors are not even aware differences exist, one of the
main differences is that investment advisors have a fiduciary duty to
act in the best interests of their clients at all times.

%

79% said they would rather work with an investment advisor if they knew advisors provided greater investor protection than stockbrokers.*

We feel that information is power in today’s difficult financial world. We strive to focus on our clients’ education over transactions. As a fee-based advisory firm, we charge our client’s a fee instead of earning commission to help ensure that the appropriate products are chosen based on the client’s best interest and not based on the commission generated.

We offer our prospective clients a complimentary, no obligation RISK ASSESSMENT, where we provide third party analysis of their current investments, personalized income projections, and ideas for immediate implementation. We look forward to our initial visit and finding out how we can help you get one step closer to your financial goals.
