Welcome to Whitfield

Retirement planning for people who’d rather be retired.

I work with a small number of families who are five to ten years from retirement, or already there. You get one planner, a written plan, and straight answers about the questions that keep you up at night.

  • A year-by-year income plan you can actually follow
  • Social Security and pension timing, modeled side by side
  • Tax-smart withdrawals across IRAs, 401(k)s, and savings
  • A standing review every six months, and a phone call anytime

What your plan covers

The three questions every retiree asks.

Your plan answers each one in writing, with your actual numbers.

01

When can I retire?

We model your savings, pensions, and spending to find the earliest date that still feels safe.

02

How much can I spend?

A monthly paycheck from your savings, with guardrails that adjust if markets turn.

03

Will it last?

Stress tests for long lives, high inflation, and healthcare costs, so there are no surprises.

Client stories

Retired, and finally relaxed about money.

Graham showed us we could retire two years earlier than we thought. For the first time, I’m not checking the market every morning.

Carol H.Retired teacher, Rogers

Selling my shop was the biggest decision of my life. Graham planned the taxes and the income so I could step away without worrying.

Marcus J.Former business owner, Springdale

He explained our pension options in plain English and never once tried to sell us a product. That’s why we stayed.
