Steve explains that, “The correct course of action to properly address one’s financial future is like building a house; it is critical to discover your needs first, and then build the proper plan. Learning the right questions to ask before moving forward is absolutely critical.”

After properly evaluating a client’s economic situation and long term goals, the team at the Sexton Advisory Group answers questions specific to each client’s needs and only then provides advice to be sure they are headed down the path to a strong financial future. Steve tells us, “It is absolutely essential that people clearly understand their specific situation before they can begin to make intelligent decisions in terms of any financial or investment products. Research and experience have clearly shown a very high level of frustration by people who have made decisions that weren’t completely tied to their individual situation. Because there are so many things that can be affected, not the least of which are tax ramifications.”

Steve also shares that is critical to monitor and facilitate necessary changes as financial situations change. “A person must understand that financial and retirement goals change, and there must be a commitment to maintaining or changing the strategies as to ensure the best possible future for each client and their family,” he states. “Most financial advisors only focus on helping clients accumulate assets. But our job should to help you get a handle on your true needs and desires, to help you avoid financial problems in your retirement years and your estate plan.”

As part of the Entertainer’s continued commitment to San Diego’s financial wellbeing, Steve Sexton will continue to contribute and provide financial advice to our readers. Steve explains, “There are a lot of ways that we can all benefit by becoming more aware of our financial situations. I’m looking forward to providing ongoing financial advice on each Entertainer & Lifestyles TV show, plus at sdentertainer.com.”
