In the recent past, I left my former advisor and moved my account to Buska Retirement Solutions, Inc. I met with Cole initially and he has been my trusted advisor ever since. I was just beginning a building project too and he guided me fully through the process, even calling me back in a timely manner when I had questions.

The investment environment is challenging right now, but I feel extremely confident that Cole will guide me to living my best life during my retirement.

My husband and I highly recommend Buska Retirement Solutions if you are looking for a good financial planner. They were very easy to work with! Listened to our concerns and provided great plans and were very educational in developing our plan for the future. We feel very confident for the future as we enter retirement!

Five stars for the entire Buska team. They have been very professional, courteous and supportive. After my husband passed away I had a lot of anxiety surrounding my finances. Cole Bruner and his team are experts in retirement solutions and they put various options out on the table for me, explained concepts very well, helped me with difficult 401K rollover paperwork and made me feel at ease. I would highly recommend Buska Retirement Solutions!

5-Step

Retirement Planning System

From increased market volatility and historically low-interest rates to the loss of pensions and the rising cost of health care, the burden of retirement falls more heavily on the shoulders of individual Americans than it ever has before. But you don’t have to carry it alone.

1. Selecting a Financial Services Professional

Step One explains the role of a financial services professional and introduces New Generation Retirement Planning.

2. Fact and Feeling Finding

Step Two encompasses thought-provoking questions about your financial well-being. It begins with the Color of Money Risk Analysis and incorporates the elements of discovery and client feedback.

3. Retirement Planning

Step Three allows us to craft a holistic plan based on your goals and objectives, which is accompanied by a formal presentation using the Color of Money, Social Security Maximization and Retirement Compass reports that allow us to engage in the important task of feedback prior to execution.

4. Solutions and Executing

Step Four incorporates independent third-party research and solutions based on careful consideration of your asset allocation and risk, income planning, asset maximization, legacy planning, and tax strategies. This step is characterized by efficiency using forward-thinking technology such as electronically-generated and pre-populated forms with e-signature capabilities.

5. Ongoing Relationships

Step five addresses long-term client engagement and five-star service by providing you with unique technology and enhanced value-adds, such as Generational Vault, RFID Data Blocker cards, ByAllAccounts and Wealth Watch.
