Tri-Star Trust At Tri-Star Trust, we build genuine relationships, tailoring financial solutions to your goals. Caring for Our Clients, Each Other and Our Communities.

When Gene Pickelman and Larry Preston founded Tri-Star Trust Bank in 2000, they wanted to create a totally different type of wealth management firm - one that not only brings value to clients' lives, but also values its employees and makes a difference in its communities. This philosophy has helped us grow to a staff of 34 professionals, managing more than $1 billion in assets and contributing to more than 140 local nonprofits. We currently have four convenient locations - Saginaw, Frankenmuth, Midland, and Greater Lansing. Tri-Star's Saginaw Office: (989) 921-0010; 1004 North Michigan Avenue, Saginaw, MI 48602. Tri-Star's Frankenmuth Office: (989) 652-6600; 160 South Main Street, Suite 2, Frankenmuth, MI 48734.

National Retirement Planning Week is HERE! ✨

We asked Market Director Rob Clark: What steps are you taking to help ensure a fulfilling retirement?

"The biggest step I have been taking the past three to five years is a steady increase to my bi-weekly 401(k) contribution. In just five years, I’ve managed to increase my giving percentage from 6% to 12%. The increases, coupled with the company match, have helped my investments grow quickly. It gives me tremendous peace of mind to know that money will be there when I retire and I won’t be solely relying on my Social Security benefits."

National Retirement Planning Week is HERE! ✨

We asked Associate Operations Manager Melissa Young: What steps are you taking to help ensure a fulfilling retirement?

"We started with what our retirement goals are, and then worked backward and figuring out what we need to do to get there. We live modestly, try to save more than we spend, and make intentional choices about where our money goes today so we can have more freedom tomorrow. And we always take advantage of the employer match—free money? We’ll take it!"

National Retirement Planning Week is almost here! ✨

We asked Relationship Manager John Shaski: What steps are you taking to help ensure a fulfilling retirement?

"I look at the amount of my 401k/Roth 401k contribution a couple times a year to see if there is room to contribute more. A great time to do this is around the time you may receive a raise. Increasing your contribution 1-2% often has little effect on your paycheck but can yield significant results in a retirement plan over time. "

National Retirement Planning Week is almost here! ✨

We asked Relationship Associate Drew Gandy: What steps are you taking to help ensure a fulfilling retirement?

"I’m intentional about preparing for retirement by maximizing my employer’s 401(k) match, increasing my contributions annually, and fully funding my Roth IRA each year. I also invest in a diversified portfolio and maintain an emergency fund with enough cash to cover three to six months of living expenses. Just as importantly, I remind myself that the purpose of earning money is not only to save for the future but also to enjoy life today. Thoughtful planning and healthy balance go hand in hand."
