Our Mission: Prioritizing Our Client’s Best Interest

We recognize that market-based accounts are vital for potential growth. However, as the adage goes, “it’s not what you make, but what you keep that matters.” In light of potential socio-economic and market volatility, the real question becomes: How long can you “keep” it?

Our goal is to help our clients to:

  • Have contractually guaranteed income for life
  • Secure their desired lifestyle throughout retirement years
  • Be able to access additional income to address potential long-term care expenses

Aside from Social Security or a pension, the only way to access a contractually guaranteed lifetime income is through a fixed deferred annuity. We monitor hundreds of fixed-index annuities and select only those that, compared to a systematic withdrawal from a diversified portfolio, provide more income with fewer assets. Additionally, they also offer extra income for Long-Term Care expenses.

At Wealth Guard Management LLC, the best interest of our clients ALWAYS comes first. Period.
