About Me
Hi, I'm Jonathan P. Bednar, II. I work with young professionals and families across the country to guide them with their finances as they experience life transitions. Life is full of transitions such as getting married, having a baby, buying a home, transitioning to a new job, etc.
How do you handle it? My desire is to help you plan for and "Create The Life You Love®" free from anxiety around money. Often times my clients are earning six-figure incomes but haven't had the time to accumulate assets, they have no plan, value the guidance of CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ Professional, and understand that navigating the changing financial landscape is too important to do by yourself.
Topics that arise include career coaching, student loan analysis, investment advice, saving for the future, company benefits optimization, insurance education, and tax planning.
Isn't it time to "Create The Life You Love®?"
