Modular Financial Planning

† Although we would love to work with everyone, Pinestar Capital Advisors does not typically offer ongoing, comprehensive financial planning and wealth management services (e.g., budgeting, bill pay, retirement planning, insurance, or personal tax optimization advice). We believe such services are best provided by a CFP®, CPA or similar-type professional who specializes in those important topics. However, Pinestar Capital Advisors does offer limited (i.e., modular) financial plans on a one-off basis for clients or prospective clients with areas of concern related to their investments — e.g., investment strategy, theory, tactical considerations, execution, capital markets research, etc. — which overlap directly with our core areas of expertise: investing and asset management.

I am not disposed to quit the ground I have taken, unless circumstances more imperious than have yet come to my knowledge should compel it; for there is but one straight course, and that is to seek truth and pursue it steadily.

— George Washington (July 31, 1795)
