A divorce doesn’t automatically take your ex off your 401(k) beneficiary form.

It happens more quietly than people expect. A form gets filled out at a new job. Life changes: a marriage, a divorce, a new child. The form stays the same. And for most retirement accounts and life insurance, that form generally takes priority over the will.

None of this needs to be solved today. But it’s much easier to look at calmly in October than to discover it at the holiday table.

Full breakdown on our blog. Link in bio.

This week on FRS Boardroom I'm talking about Trump Accounts. Leave the politics at the door. This is just about how the account works.

In short, it's a savings account for kids under 18. Family can put in up to $5,000 a year combined, it's invested in a low-cost index fund, and it becomes IRA-style money once your child turns 18. U.S. citizen kids born from 2025 through 2028 may also qualify for a one-time $1,000 from the government, but you have to request it. And Michael and Susan Dell have pledged $250 for kids 10 and under in ZIP codes with a median household income under $150,000.

Quick clarification on two details in the video: Dell's $250 is for kids 10 and under in certain ZIP codes, and only the money family puts in comes out tax-free. Earnings, employer money, and the $1,000 deposit are taxed when they're withdrawn.

It's not for every family, and it's not something I can set up for you. If you're wondering whether it fits, ask me. I'm happy to talk it through.

With rates this high, what should you actually be doing with your money?
If you’re carrying a HELOC, business line of credit, auto loan, student loan or credit card debt, higher rates may be changing the way you should think about your overall strategy.
That doesn’t automatically mean paying everything off at once.
But it does mean asking the right questions:
→ Which debt should you prioritize?
→ How much cash should you keep available?
→ Should some savings be used to reduce higher-interest debt?
→ How does that decision affect the rest of your financial plan?
For families and business owners juggling multiple priorities, the answer isn’t always simple.
If you’ve been wondering whether today’s interest rates should change what you’re doing, that’s a conversation worth having.
Reach out to FRS Advisors and we can help you look at the full picture.

Today we're celebrating a milestone of our own — it's Bob's 50th birthday!

There's something fitting about it. Turning 50 is one of the moments we hear about most from clients — it's when retirement stops feeling abstract and starts feeling real. Bob has spent his career helping people plan for exactly that turning point.

Today, we're just glad to celebrate his.

Join us in wishing Bob Clements, ChFC, AIF®, a very happy 50th birthday!

What if you're assuming you can't afford for one of you to stay home — and you've never actually run the numbers?
A client called Bob this week with exactly that question. Young couple, two kids under school age, a third due in September. Both parents earn well — but with daycare costs climbing, they're asking whether it makes sense for one of them to step back after maternity leave.
Not because they're struggling. Because they want to know if it's actually possible.
So Bob's team is doing what they always do: building out the full plan. What happens to retirement savings on one income? What about the 529? What does it look like in a good market — and in three bad years in a row?
That's the difference between guessing and knowing.
More families are going to face this same fork in the road as the cost of living keeps climbing. If you've been assuming an answer without ever testing it, that's worth a conversation.

Happy belated Father's Day to all the dads out there. 🎉
Bob spent his Father's Day thinking about something most business owners don't want to think about — what happens to your family if you're gone tomorrow?
Not your clients. Not your business partners. Your kids.
If you're a sole business owner, your income doesn't automatically transfer to your family when you do. Your business doesn't magically become a college fund. And if someone has to sell your assets in a hurry? They'll get pennies on the dollar — and everyone in the room will know why.
Bob has a plan in place. Do you?
Watch this week's FRS Boardroom and then ask yourself the question he's asking himself as a father: Is my business actually protecting my family — or is it just protecting my lifestyle while I'm here?

Most people don't wait to plan because they don't care. They wait because life is full.
The kids have games. Work has deadlines. Retirement feels like a problem for future-you. Estate planning lands on next year's list. Again.
Then one day, retirement isn't 20 years away anymore — and the window for your best options has quietly closed.
In this week's Boardroom Brief, Bob breaks down why the most effective financial plans aren't built at retirement. They're built long before it becomes the focus.
The decisions you make now — around savings, investments, insurance, taxes, and estate planning — shape how much flexibility and choice you have later. That's what our ClearPath Plan™ process is designed to do: create a coordinated strategy that grows with you, so you're never scrambling to catch up.
Whether you're in the early stages of building wealth, approaching a major transition, or already retired, a well-structured plan makes the difference between reacting to life and leading it.

A conversation this week reminded me that retirement isn’t just about having enough money.

It’s about knowing how to actually make the transition.

I met with a client who is at retirement age and financially capable of retiring sooner than expected. But the hesitation wasn’t really about the numbers.

It was:

• How do I replace my paycheck?
• Which accounts should I draw from first?
• If income drops, should I start doing Roth conversions?
• How do I avoid unnecessary taxes?
• What does this next stage of life actually look like?

For many people, the anxiety comes less from a lack of preparation and more from a lack of clarity.

That’s where a real financial plan matters.

Through our process, we help clients create a step-by-step roadmap around retirement income, taxes, distributions, investment strategy, and lifestyle planning — so they can move forward with more confidence and less uncertainty.
And this doesn’t only apply to retirement. Sometimes the biggest financial decisions involve giving yourself permission to work less, travel more, spend differently, or simply enjoy the life you’ve worked hard to build.
If you’ve been wondering what your next chapter could realistically look like, we’d be happy to have a conversation.

The hardest part of estate planning?
It’s not the paperwork.

It’s the conversations most families never have.

We sat down with a client recently to talk about:
👉 what happens to their business and wealth when they’re gone

Not just legally—but practically:

Who runs the business?
What’s fair between children?
Who’s involved vs. not involved?
What’s the bigger vision for the family?

This is what real legacy planning and wealth transfer planning looks like.

Because without communication, even the best plan can fall apart.

That’s why we guide families through structured family meetings as part of their overall financial plan—especially for business owners.

A lot of times:
The kids don’t know what’s expected…
And sometimes they don’t even want what the parents assume.

Clarity now can prevent conflict later.

That’s the purpose of a .

Think your finances aren’t “big enough” for a financial advisor? Think again.

One of the biggest misconceptions I hear:
👉 “I don’t think I’m at the point where I need help yet.”

The truth? Most people wait too long—not because they don’t need guidance, but because they feel intimidated to ask.

You’re not a waste of anyone’s time.
You just haven’t found the right fit yet.

At FRS, it’s about helping you take the first step—whether that’s working together, pointing you in the right direction, or simply giving you clarity to move forward.

That’s how the Clear Path Plan starts.

If you’ve been putting this off… this is your sign.
