Case Study

Helping a conservative client

THE SITUATION

Dennis owned a small family business and earned a modest income. As he approached his retirement years, he worried have enough to provide for a comfortable retirement. He has always been very conservative with his money and suspicious of seeking counsel from a financial management company.

THE SOLUTION

One of Dennis’s friends recommended CD Wealth Management as a group of experts he could trust. Andy Dropkin and his team began meeting regularly with Dennis to help him get an overview of his financial picture. Respecting his conservative approach to money, they recommended and helped him buy individual bonds. At the time, Dennis had his money invested with another financial services company. Despite that, Andy reviewed Dennis’s portfolio and recommended changes to optimize his assets over his remaining working years.

Andy and the CD Wealth Management team developed a solid working relationship that has lasted more than a decade. In the years working with Dennis, Andy helped Dennis diversify his portfolio and helped him to invest his proceeds after the sale of his business.

Now Dennis enjoys his retirement knowing his future is secure with a large portion of his money in tax free bonds and the remainder in equities. Dennis is taking care of his wife and set aside money for his grandchildren’s education. He even has recommended Andy and the CD Wealth Management team to his estate planning attorney who has been so impressed, that he recommends CD Wealth Management to his clients.

Dennis is a real client. His name has been changed to protect his privacy.
