Opportunity
A long-time client had been cautious when she had to take over the family finances after her husband’s sudden death. We helped her settle his estate, plan retirement, and pay the children’s college education. As she approached a significant birthday, she was hoping to achieve a life-long dream: owning a sports car.
Solution
Our advisor noticed that she was also approaching eligibility for a widow’s benefit that would add a new source of income. Combined with the widow’s diligent saving habit and unpretentious taste, we created a road map for her to buy the car of her dreams.
Outcome
Our client was able to add luxury to her life, without compromising her future stability. Today, she is still enjoying her red convertible.
