What's Different About Heckmann Financial?
Most professionals in the financial services industry operate exclusively in one of three areas:
- Asset Managers - These advisors typically serve as investment managers focusing only on "rate of return"
- Insurance Agents - These advisors tend to view insurance as the solution to every problem
- Fee Based Planners - These advisors often focus their entire business model around charging fees for plans without actually helping clients to implement them
The Heckmann Financial team simplifies your life and improves your plan efficiency by providing all of these areas so you can implement your multi-faceted plan at one firm.
We specialize in creating income distribution plans that adapt to today's changing financial environments. We help clients get the most out of their financial lives by maximizing the probability of successful outcomes based on several key factors including taxes, market environment, health care costs, social security optimization, longevity, and legacy goals.
Most importantly, we take a collaborative approach to planning: We educate. YOU make decisions. Not the other way around.
