Put Your Family at Risk

Without an estate plan and the right insurance, your family could be irreversibly damaged if you’re gone.

Rick Valenzi, founder of Financial Zen

Hi, I'm Rick. I created The Financial Zen Group just for you.

I get it. Between your career and your kids, you’ve got a lot on your plate.

You don’t need the added responsibility of being a financial expert. I believe you deserve a guide who can carry that burden for you.  

And that’s why I’m here. When you work with Financial Zen, you get a team of financial professionals with over 20 years of collective experience. 

We are obsessed with protecting your family, optimizing your finances and helping you alleviate the burden of those responsibilities.

SCHEDULE YOUR DISCOVERY CALL

Questions you may have before scheduling your Discovery Call...

What if I've already got my family's finances all figured out?

That’s entirely possible. And you’ll know for sure after your Discovery Call with Rick.

We only help families we can positively impact 10X. (Because we selfishly want our members telling all their friends about us!)

We’re not interested in pushing peas around the plate like your pre-schooler. So if you’ve got everything covered, we’ll tell you so.

How complicated is the Bootcamp program?

Our process is designed so all you have to do is “show up”.

If you can find one hour per month for 6 months you will protect your family and optimize every penny you own.

Is the Bootcamp program worth the money?

Divide your annual income by 2000 (the number of working hours in a year). Now multiply your “hourly rate” by how many hours it’ll take you to research, plan and execute all the financial strategies you need to protect your family.

When you consider what your time is worth, I bet we’re cheaper than doing it yourself!

What if I don't want you to invest my money?

That’s cool with us. Leave your portfolio where it is.

Unlike other financial advisors, we don’t require you to hand over your money to work with us.

That’s because instead of charging a portfolio fee like the other guys, we charge a flat monthly subscription.

What if I can't find the time?

We know how busy you are.

And that’s why we’re available to meet anytime between 6:30am to 9:30pm Monday through Saturday, either in-person or over Zoom.

What if I don't have that much money?

Financial complexity depends on how much you make, not how much you have.

Traditionally, financial advisors only work with people who HAVE a lot of money because their fees are based on it.

That’s why we charge a monthly subscription instead. It levels the playing field and give young families access to services they historically wouldn’t “qualify” for.

The Results

No worries. All confidence.

Stop worrying about sending your kids to college, whether you’re spending too much and how you’ll afford retirement.

Acquire confidence, gain clarity, and understand your finances like never before. 

Conquer Financial Complexity and achieve Financial Zen!
