What is a Financial Plan?

Meet with Greenspring Advisors: https://greenspringadvisors.com/contact/

What is financial planning? Join us for a conversation on what financial planning done well looks like and how to tell when it’s done for the wrong reasons – typically if the conclusion is to buy a product a salesperson receives a commission on. We discuss the difference between static versus dynamic plans, how your families’ plan is similar and different to a company’s financial plan, and trade-offs in the accumulation and withdrawal phases of life. And more.
