OUR TEAM
DAN MURPHY
Dan has been helping individuals, corporations and foundations reach their retirement and investment goals since 1999. In our opinion, time in the market is more important than trying to time the market. We believe that by building globally diversified portfolios using a combination of low-cost investment products (ETF’s, Institutional Mutual Funds and individual securities) gives our clients the best chance to achieve their financial goals. We use financial planning software to ensure that clients stay on the path to financial independence.

Our objective is to provide exceptional service at an exceptional value. In addition to managing investments, we also create financial plans for clients (a road map to financial independence), provide Federal/State income tax and estate planning, confirm a client has adequate insurance coverage (life, disability, health, long term care, umbrella, etc.), implement retirement plans at the entity or individual level (401(K), SIMPLE, IRA, Pension Plans), assist clients with structuring the sale of their businesses, and most importantly we help clients make good investment/business decisions and avoid costly ill-advised investment/business decisions.

JAMES TERRELLS
