Financial planning is about more than the numbers. It's also about the people, the relationships, and the values behind the work.

After a year of working with Maarten Kerstens and the EP Wealth team, one client highlighted their responsiveness, thoughtful guidance, and genuine care. What also stood out? The team's commitment to philanthropy and creating opportunities for clients to engage with their community.

Two people can share the same financial goals—and have very different ideas about how to reach them.

Our attitudes toward saving, spending, debt and financial security are often shaped long before marriage. Those differences may not become obvious until a major decision arises, such as paying for college, retiring or receiving an inheritance.

Talking about money before those moments can help couples better understand each other’s priorities and build a financial plan around a shared view of the future.

If you’re a business owner, it’s pivotal to start planning for retirement years before a sale or exit.

EP Wealth Advisors Vice President Advisor, Chuck Bautista, spoke with InvestmentNews about how many business owners run their retirement plan like they run their companies.

"It is important to take into account which of those expenses might be covered by the business prior to retirement but not after, like a company car or health insurance. We take account of this information at onboarding, before the sale," Chuck tells Gregg Greenberg.

From Sundays on the field to life after the NFL, financial priorities can change significantly.

One former professional football player recently reflected on working with Joe Palumbo and Adam Fein throughout his playing career and into retirement. Through each chapter, Joe and Adam have remained focused on understanding the client’s goals, family priorities, and changing financial needs while providing ongoing guidance along the way.
