About Robert McAlister

"A retirement plan and a good boat have a lot in common — both have to be built for the weather you can't see yet."

I came to financial planning the long way around — eight years running commercial fishing operations before I realized the part I loved was helping the crew make sense of their money.

These days I work with families in their fifties and sixties who've done well and want to make sure it lasts. My job isn't to dazzle you with projections — it's to tell you the truth about what the numbers say, and make the next step obvious.
