Our Investment Philosophy
The Income Model
The Income Model is an investment strategy that focuses on generating income through a diverse portfolio of fixed income and fixed-income-like equity positions.
This income-first approach helps generate renewable income streams that can fund recurring retirement expenses while seeking to help preserve and grow investment principal over the long term. It’s a sound investment strategy that eliminates the need to rely on the 4% withdrawal rule.
Why? Because clients are earning the interest and dividends and not withdrawing principal, which is a way to help ensure their retirement savings can last a lifetime.
To accomplish this, our affiliated RIA Sound Income Strategies, LLC avoids mutual funds and focuses on individual, income-generating securities that can be customized and managed for specific client investment needs.
Advantages of individual securities include better:
- Justification of your management fee
- Transparency
- Client retention in a down market
- Tax management
