You've Done the Hard Part.
Now Comes the Part Most People Get Wrong.

As you approach retirement, the questions shift from "How much can I save?" to ones most advisors aren't equipped to answer. You've built $1 million or more in your 401(k) or IRA, now the real planning begins:

"How do I take money out without triggering an avalanche of taxes?"
"Will my retirement savings really last 30+ years?"
"What if something unexpected happens to my spouse or my health?"
"Am I missing something that could cost me later?"

Most retirement mistakes happen in the five to ten years before retirement.
We focus on the three areas where the right plan makes a six-figure difference:

💸 Taxes
We help you move money from "Forever Taxed" accounts to "Never Taxed" Roth accounts while you're in a lower tax window.
💰 Income
We replace your paycheck with a flexible withdrawal strategy designed to keep your lifestyle steady even during market volatility.
🛡️ Risk
We catch the gaps generalists miss, like Medicare IRMAA surcharges, Social Security errors, and the tax bomb inside traditional IRAs and 401(k)s.

Why People Choose Atomic Planning

No plan? Here's What That Could Cost You.

The Cost of Inaction

⚠️
Sequence of Return Risk: Withdrawing money from a "Cookie-Cutter" portfolio during a down market early in retirement, which can permanently derail your plan.
⚠️
Tax Blindness: Losing a massive portion of your 401(k) to the IRS because your advisor didn't model a multi-year Roth conversion strategy.
⚠️
Medicare Surcharges: Falling into "tax traps" that trigger IRMAA penalties, causing you to pay thousands more for healthcare than necessary.
⚠️
Social Security Gaps: Claiming benefits based on a "rule of thumb" rather than a mathematical analysis of your lifetime household benefit.
⚠️
Inheritance Tax Bombs: Ignoring the tax bomb inside your traditional IRA or 401(k) and leaving your heirs with a massive, unavoidable tax bill.

Common Questions From People Just Like You

We work best with people who plan to retire in the next 10 years and have $1 million or more saved in a 401(k), 403(b), or IRA. The decade before retirement is the most important planning window of your life. The decisions you make about taxes, Social Security, and income in these years will shape your finances in retirement. If you're in that window and want to make sure you get it right, there's a good chance we're a fit.
Always. We're fiduciaries, which means we're legally and ethically required to act in your best interest. That's how financial advice should work.
Most families we work with pay a 1.00% annual fee, billed monthly, on the assets we manage. And that fee automatically goes down as your accounts grow. No hidden fees. No commissions. No product sales.
Compare Our Fees
They can but it depends on your situation. We've helped some clients project six-figure tax savings by spreading out conversions over time. It's all about timing and having a smart strategy.
