Alex Calott, NSSA® & Austin Powell, CFP®, NSSA®


After observing the philosophy at large investment firms, we noticed a huge problem. People were underprepared for retirement and didn't have a plan to ensure they wouldn't outlive their savings or pay too much in taxes. These firms were solely focused on growing their assets, not preserving them and creating a reliable income stream in the distribution phase of retirement.

That's why we founded Blue Financial, Inc. nearly ten years ago. We ask the right questions and address the big issues to help design a holistic financial plan for you that you can count on now and in the future.


Together, we’ll walk through each step of the process to build a sound financial and retirement plan focused on achieving your goals because that’s the only benchmark that matters.

5 Ways to Reduce Your Taxes in Retirement
By Austin Powell 13 Aug, 2021
What are the biggest expenses you’ll face in retirement? Healthcare? Housing? Travel? All of those costs could be significant, but one of the biggest could be taxes. That’s right. Just because you’re done working, doesn’t mean you’re done paying taxes. Many sources of retirement income, like Social Security, pensions, and retirement account distributions, are taxable. That doesn’t even include the wide range of other taxes you could face, like property taxes, sales tax, and more. Taxes may be a part of life, but they can also be a drain on your retirement. Every dollar you pay in taxes is a dollar that can’t be used to support your lifestyle and fund your goals.
