The plan you were never given.
You have the pieces — a pension estimate, a TSP statement, a 401(k) app, a Social Security letter. What you don't have is the one document that ties them together. So we write it.
Most people arrive with fragments. You leave with a plan.
Every number you'd need to retire well already exists — scattered across statements, portals, and file drawers. The job of a fiduciary is to pull them onto one page.

A fiduciary who has already seen your situation.
Capital Wealth was founded on one rule — fiduciary, fee-only, no proprietary products, no commissions. That rule hasn't moved since 2009.
Straight talk. Real guidance you can use.
Every week Mike takes listener questions on Retire Right Radio — tax strategy, Social Security, Roth conversions, federal benefits. No sales pitch. Just the same answers our planning clients pay us for.
Read before you decide. Then decide.
Both books grew out of questions Mike heard every week on the radio — the same questions clients ask in their first planning meeting. Download the first chapter of either, no email gate on the preview.
Retire Right, Retire Now
Mike reveals the proven strategies that turn your savings into reliable retirement income. The first chapter covers the difference between a portfolio and a plan — and why that difference compounds for twenty years.

- The 5 pillars of retirement income
- Protecting savings from market volatility
- Tax strategies that could save you thousands
- The biggest mistakes people make with retirement
The Federal Benefits Gap
Federal employees get a six-hundred-page benefits book and almost no guidance on how to use it. The first chapter walks through the five decisions that shape the next thirty years of your retirement — FERS, TSP, FEHB, survivor elections, and the order of operations.

- FERS election: 50% vs. 25% survivor math
- FEHB at 65 — Medicare coordination, decided
- TSP: when a partial rollover actually helps
- The timing mistakes that cost six figures
Three steps. No surprises.
The first is free. The second and third happen only if we both think it's a fit.

The numbers below are what peace of mind actually looks like on paper — taxes you won't overpay, income you won't outlive, decisions you won't second-guess. The fee covers itself, many times over.
No two plans are identical. These are the ranges we see across our book of business — not a promise, a pattern.
Past results are not a guarantee of future performance. Numbers shown are aggregates across our planning book — illustrative, not projections.
