Our Mission

You work hard for your money...

Yet many successful people have never been shown how much of it quietly slips away through taxes, fees, interest, and other financial decisions.

We help you see where those dollars are going, understand the impact over time, and explore ways to keep more of what you've earned.

The goal isn't simply to accumulate money.

It's to help you hold onto more of it so you can spend it, enjoy it, and share it with the people and organizations you care about.

We use a refreshing perspective based on fundamental economics, proven strategies, and personalized coordination. Our foundation is built on a great offense backed by a strong, reliable defense. While basic math can be used to formulate and measure strategies, our insight and experience reveal all elements involved in a sound approach. This allows us to build your plan to account for a life in constant motion.

Many firms insist you leave trusted advisors to work with them; it is not our intention to replace any of those people. Our objective is to build on what you currently have in place, allowing you to identify gaps and address them in a way you are comfortable with.

Highly recommend working with Dick Simpson. His firm, Simpson Wealth Partners, introduces an approach that organizes and manages your financial investments, insurance, and planning in a structured framework. As a process driven person, I really appreciate the planning model and the visibility it provides.   While the process is extremely important, the commitment to building a relationship is more important.You won’t meet or work with a finer person.
CRAIG NORTH -
Dick Simpson has been a terrific resource for Amy and I. He’s a real problem solver and has helped me to navigate some issues related to financial planning, insurance, etc.  With his help I started a 529 Plan for our kids, changed insurance (and added more coverage for the same amount) and explored other options to secure my retirement.   I know you have other options, but I wanted you to be aware that as a financial consultant, he works with clients to educate, organize and maximize their money and time.
