At Crystal Lake Tax & Financial, we specialize in teaching clients how the world of income-
generating investments and strategies can be used to help those in and nearing retirement to
conservatively achieve their long-term financial goals and avoid common retirement planning
mistakes.

money organically, or as we like to say "the old fashioned way." We rely on real world proven
strategies rather than just hope like so many other brokers.

informed, educated decisions that will best suit your current needs and enable you to achieve
your long term goals. We believe piece of mind comes from understanding your options and from
working with your advisor to choose the options that work best for you and your family.
