Planning realities we know in Mason
State-of-Michigan employees
The state’s retirement systems carry pension tiers, 401(k)/457 plans, and retiree-insurance rules that read like statute — because they are. We translate them into one clear income plan alongside Social Security and personal savings.
MSU faculty and staff
University 403(b) plans — often at TIAA — include account versions whose withdrawal rules vary widely, some payable only over roughly nine years. We know them in detail and build retirement income around what your specific contracts actually allow.
Capital-region professionals and retirees
Higher Lansing-area incomes make tax-efficient saving and a clean drawdown plan the difference-makers. We coordinate both with a CPA on staff.
Services for Mason households
Questions we hear from Mason
Do you understand State of Michigan and MSU retirement plans?
Yes — state pension/457 planning and university 403(b)/TIAA planning are both specialties of ours, including the TIAA Traditional versions with multi-year withdrawal schedules that surprise people at retirement.
My retirement is mostly a state pension. Do I still need planning?
Arguably more — pension elections are irrevocable, and survivor choices, insurance rules, and tax withholding still have to be right. We make sure the one-time decisions are made with full information.
How do we meet from Mason?
About 40 minutes south via US-127 and I-69, or by phone and video between annual in-person reviews.
