Zdenek Financial Planning, LLC
is a Registered Investment Advisor (RIA) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). In our role as investment advisor to our clients it is our job to help structure and manage their investment portfolios for achieving financial independence and preserving wealth. Zdenek Financial Planning offers a comprehensive Investment Management Program to achieve this.

Taking A Straightforward, Sophisticated Approach To Investing
Wealth building is a journey that works best when you know your destination and when you'd like to arrive there: the end goal dollar amount that you are building toward and the number of years you have for getting there. Once a clear destination and desired timeframe is established you can effectively develop and manage an investment portfolio that is focused on achieving your specific goals.

Sophisticated institutional investors understand this. That’s why their approach to investing is to construct a portfolio of holdings designed to generate, over the long-term, the average annual return required to reach their wealth goal within the planned timeframe.

Most individual investors err by not beginning their investing activities by first taking these steps. As a result, many of them become overly preoccupied with attempting to have their investment portfolio generate a relative return that exceeds the return of the S&P 500 Index.

At Zdenek Financial Planning we believe the correct way to measure success when tracking wealth building progress with an investment portfolio is to gauge whether you remain on track for reaching your desired wealth goal within the planned time period. Sophisticated institutional investors recognize that anything else is but a distraction from the goal at hand.

Zdenek Financial Planning works with individual investors who want to build and manage their investment portfolios the way savvy institutional investors do.


We have an established investment management process that is specifically geared to the affluent investor. Considering a client's goal for wealth building and wealth preservation, we calculate what investment rate of return he requires to reach these objectives. We analyze a client's investment time horizons and liquidity needs over the short, mid and long term, and his investment risk tolerance for each time period. Then, using the client's personal investing guidelines, we research and select suitable money managers to whom, or mutual funds to which, we will allocate his investable cash.

We provide our clients with access to some of the top private money managers in the nation thus enabling us to create customized portfolios for each client based on their specific wealth and investment targets per their Personal Financial Plan. We work closely with each money manager to ensure they know the individual portfolio and asset management needs of each client and provide on-going due diligence to ensure each manager continues to stay true to their investment style and approach. Pension funds, IRAs and individual investment accounts are managed in this personalized manner.

Once a client's wealth is prudently invested, Zdenek Financial Planning's service continues as we actively monitor the performance of each investment in the portfolio. We will retain an investment as long as it continues to perform acceptably and meets the needs of a client's personal portfolio.

We also provide each client with a specialized quarterly investment report, which provides a consolidated view of his or her wealth and investment targets against actual performance of the portfolio. As part of this process, we give special attention to explaining the performance and progress of their investment portfolios as well as any rebalancing and/or strategy changes that need to be implemented.


Following a five-point investment philosophy, we:

  1. Set a reasonably attainable investment return objective.
  2. Let compounding play a key role in growing wealth.
  3. Invest for the long term. Don't chase investment fads or try to time the market.
  4. Only make investments that allow you to sleep well at night.
  5. Base portfolio asset allocation decisions and investment selections on the requirements of a client's personal financial plan.
