I was filled with confusion and uncertainty as to what I would do to survive financially.

I had to retire early due to family illness. I was filled with confusion and uncertainty as to what I would do to survive financially. I was recommended to Millstone Financial by a family member. After speaking with Don and Mike, I realized they had my best interest at heart. They understood my concerns and relieved my fears tackling early forced retirement!

Four years ago, we were unsure how to manage our assets to properly provide for our retirement. Since working with Don and Mike of Millstone Financial Group we are confident they have provided investment guidance and strategies that are consistent with our risk tolerance and secure long term financial security.

- Dave & Kathy Demone

we would be working into our 70’s…

Prior to meeting Millstone Financial Group we had retirement investments but figured the way things were mapped out we would be working into our 70’s.Meeting Mike and Don of Millstone Financial Group changed our lives. Their approach was not to sell a specific product but to look at what we had, change what didn’t work and look at the whole picture and what our dreams were. After switching to Millstone Financial Group we could feasibly retire at 65, which we have done and we are loving it!

- Joan & Lou Acevedo

Retirement? It wasnt even a topic for me.

Prior to meeting Mike 15 years ago, I felt uneducated and unorganized with any investments or policies I had. Retirement? It wasn't even a topic for me. Because Mike took alot of time to get to know me and my wife Rae and our retirement goals, I am completely confident in Millstone Financial and the hard work of Don and Mike.

- John & Raeann Wagenman

Millstone Financial Group helped me work through a difficult buyout.

Prior to my selling of my business and my wife and I retiring, we connected with Millstone Financial Group. In the past eight years since, they had helped me work through the management of a difficult buyout, created the diversification to help mitigate current and future taxes, and set a course for retirement with a strategy that self generates the ability to live out our lives in a manner in which we grew accustomed to, while steadily increasing the principle growth.
