29 Years of Retirement Guidance

Retirement clarity. Without the sales pressure.

I'm Ebby. For nearly three decades I've helped families understand Social Security, income planning, annuities, and estate documents — honestly, in plain English.

No products to sell Flat-fee consulting only Serving clients nationwide via Zoom

A different kind of conversation.

Most retirees walk into a financial advisor's office and walk out with a product — and a lot of confusion. That's not what happens here.

I no longer sell financial products. I share what I've learned over 29 years so you can make informed decisions — whether you work with my son's firm, your existing advisor, or no one at all.

"After 29 years in this industry, the saddest conversations I've had weren't about money — they were with families who didn't have the right answers when they needed them most. This site exists so that doesn't happen to you."
