    Thanks to Garrett's support, instead of constantly trying to put out financial fires, I'm now on…read moretrack to be debt free this year, have an emergency fund, and more consistently align my finances towards my fiancée's and my values and goals. For context, I first found Garrett while searching online for a finance coach, and I resonated with his optimism and supportive tone on his website. I proceeded to have an initial call with him, and just like the tone on his website, Garrett was warm and friendly. He was attentive, curious, and professional, and he showed up with structured programs combined with a willingness to adjust and be flexible for my specific circumstances. He clearly had the training, experience, and skills, and I got the sense he walked the talk, invested a lot in himself, and put in the work to live authentically. I was eager to work with Garrett, but I still had my hesitations. I was on track to go deeper and deeper into debt. Did it really make sense to hire a finance coach and add on another expense in my life? At the end of the day, I had to conclude that I needed additional support. I tried reading books, getting support from friends and family, and making changes on my own, and I wasn't getting the results I needed. It's as if I had tried to heal a broken bone on my own and then realized I really needed to hire a doctor. I had to admit that I couldn't do this with my current approaches, and Garrett had been able to help many others before me. After discussing with my fiancée, Jasjeet, we hired Garrett to support us as a couple. I'm so glad we made that decision. Garrett continued to show up consistently with the aforementioned qualities, and after only 7 sessions, I experienced the following results. - Alignment with Jasjeet on our priorities and financial plan which includes being debt free this year and having an emergency fund - New tools for successfully talking about and getting aligned about finances with Jasjeet - A shift towards feeling more empowered and steady in my relationship with money Of course, Jasjeet and I also needed to put in the work to show up to the sessions and do the work in-between sessions. So much credit for our success goes to my fiancée. As our coach, Garrett helped guide us with a listening ear, honest perspective, tools, and strategies. Thanks again, Garrett, and I'm looking forward to continuing our work together!

    While I have not yet chosen to work with Garret, our initial call was fantastic. He was extremely…read morepersonable and walked me through what working with him would look like in a very transparent and non-salesy way (this is coming from someone in sales). Garret took the time to understand my situation and then outlined our his services may help. At the end of the call, rather than hard selling me, he told me it might be smart to try it on my own first and then come back if I was running into the same issues. I could not recommend him enough solely based on our intro call.

    I'd been doing my taxes through Turbotax for years, and finally this year my taxes were too…read morecomplicated so I decided to go to a professional. I'm so glad I did. John is thorough, calm, and very detail oriented. He went through my previous tax returns and found deductions that I didn't even know that I missed. He sorted out my taxes without judgement or snark. He also gave me great advice on healthcare and my upcoming tax year. Just a great guy. I'm happy to have him as my new accountant.

    I used John for nearly 10 years. Not because I liked him all that much, but he was convenient and I…read morethought he was competent, though nothing more. However, every year I said to myself that this will be the last time I use him. His communication skills get a 0. He doesn't answer the phone or respond to messages. You may as well use the USPS to write to him because email doesn't work very well. This year I was in a pinch to get my taxes done quickly. I told him that before I sent my return. After 2 weeks, nothing. He didn't acknowledge receipt of my return (which was sent email) until I contacted him. He finally got back to me after 2 weeks (after leaving messages everywhere) to tell me it would be another week or two. My return is about as simple as they come. Making a long time customer wait for up to a month for a simple return is not good business. I finally fired him. John is a nice guy and I wish him the best. Hopefully, this review will enlighten him about customer service.

For all the effort and check ins the results were less than what the bigger and established financial companies were able to do. Let's face it, all of these guys have their issues but personally I would look elsewhere. Better the devils we know really applies in the case of this start up.

    Update 2/16: I want to share that the owner of Stash Wealth reached out to me and shared her…read moreappreciation for my feedback. She also addressed some key concerns I had and expressed how feedback helps them evolve and stay competitive. After this, I do feel more confident in recommending this service to friends knowing how seriously they take their feedback and I'm excited to consider revisiting this service at a later date. ------------ I purchased the individual stash plan. Here are some of my notes that may help you make a decision if Stash Wealth is right for you. Summary: I think SW could be a good starting place for some people. If you aren't sure what accounts to setup, how much you can afford a month on expenses, or how to save for retirement or a home then this could be helpful. Things I liked: -Small team / personalized experience -Professional and nice staff -They have "experts" in various areas of the financial world which is nice if you like having one place to go to for your money questions. -A fiduciary - meaning they aren't suppose to sell you investments that aren't in your best interest -They seemed happy to let me email follow up questions after I went through the stash plan process - pretty quick responses -The online experience / website / portal was great. They used Zoom for the meetings. -good to have gotten another perspective on my financial plan. I now know I was checking the right boxes. Things I didn't like: - Having a small team means time is money meaning you may not get virtual time you need to get your "financial shit together". Leaving holes in your final plan or areas you wish they had looked at. -I noticed the advisor wasn't aware of some of the features in some of the products he was recommending. Wasn't aware of new savings features, along with the Ally Investment Platform (he thought they only let you buy stocks), wasn't aware of Wealthfront's minimum balance. If you're a money nerd you should keep up with this stuff so you know the latest and greatest to help your customers. -The overall Stash Plan was pretty basic in my opinion. They basically look at your income, budget, and do a little basic math to tell you where to flow your money to reach your goals. I expected more. Give me multiple approaches to killing my financial outlook i.e. show me various conservative and aggressive options to reach my goals faster (increase your 401k matching by x percent after paying off x debt, or sell vested stock on x date to do x thing which could give you x returns by x date allowing you to retire x number of years earlier). I felt a little bit like a number to them - after they get your basic money flow they try to upsell you on ongoing money management. -They ask you to upload your bank, credit card statements, employer benefits, paystub, etc... however they never gave me any insights into my spending or to my knowledge, used my statements in my stash plan. -I only met twice with the advisor - around an hour each time and it felt a lil rushed towards the end. -After my first meeting, I sent some updated debt numbers to my advisor, but he forgot to update our plan by the 2nd meeting. This fudged my final plan. This was a little off putting. -The advisor really didn't go into strategies on how to pay off debt faster, other than consider consolidating it. For example, one of my debts is a balance transfer and has 0%$ APR for 12 months. I feel like the advisor should have offered some insights on how i should prioritize that debt above other areas. There was no mentions or discussions around this. -Personally I did not like the style of the plan. At first I liked it, but later I found it difficult to find information, interpret it, etc.. the format, the way it was written and flow of it got on my nerves later. At the end they put a cliff notes slide - however in my mind, a good plan shouldn't need cliff notes. The plan should BE the cliff notes. -I have unvested stocks at the company I work for - I expected to see more forecasting around how and when to use the unvested company stocks. -I initially didn't provided accurate budgeting numbers - (on me) I would have given them brownie points if they had allowed me to redo my plan with the correct numbers instead they just told me some things to tweak over email or if they had caught this via the monthly statements - i.e. Cam based on the statement it looks like you spent $800 on food and not $200 a month like you said in our first meeting. Overall, they just take what you give them, create a money flow plan and get you on your merry way and try to get you in their Stash mgmt service. They aren't looking at your situation comprehensively - IMO. I don't trust the numbers or the plan provided so i'm no better then I was before dishing out $1300 bucks. Ultimately, I've learned that no one is going to care as much about your money and your life as you do.

Before we even got into the actual dollars, Pam spent a lot of time just getting to know us and finding out how each of us had dealt with money throughout our lives. She wanted to understand our experience so that she could give us advice that took our tolerance for risk and comfort with different ideas into account. She was VERY thorough in gathering all the information she needed, and continues to be very willing to answer the many questions that come up as we work through the process of making a financial plan for the future. The model she used to create a dashboard is very detailed and is giving us the information we need to make decisions.

She is easy to work with, thoughtful, and very knowledgeable. Her initial approach is ideal and after hiring her to create our plan, we were pleased with her caring and detailed approached to gathering all the information needed to build our plan. She was able to walk my wife and I through our current and future goals ensuring our plan would meet our needs. We are so glad we got a second opinion, Pam was able to show us we were in a better financial position than we thought and was going to save us hundreds of thousands in taxes that we could use to improve the quality of our life style. The best part of the experience was when Pam was able to clearly show my wife that she could securely retire immediately. We had planned for her to retire this year, but she was anxious and unsure we were in a position for her to truly quit working. My wife has thoroughly enjoyed being retired this year focusing entirely on appreciating what life has to offer. Much appreciated Pam :)

When I came to Brooklyn Plans I was looking for financial advise to help set me on the road to successfully paying off my upcoming grad school loans.

It was one of the best decisions I've ever made and worth every penny. As a millennial I know how easy it is to believe that you will be swimming in debt forever.

Cannot recommend Brooklyn Plans enough!
