The Opportunity

Sarah has suddenly received an unexpected inheritance of $2 million from her deceased aunt. Feeling inexperienced and uncomfortable with managing finances of this size, she’s seeking guidance. Her goal is to invest the money wisely to grow over time, stop working, live comfortably, and leave a legacy for her children and grandchildren. 

The Solution

Through discussions with the Brickley team, we built a flexible, multi-year strategy that aligns with Sarah’s short-term and long-term goals. 

  • Developed a comprehensive financial plan that allowed Sarah to stop working and start volunteering more. 
  • Built a spending plan that considered Sarah’s expenses and existing debt.
  • Invested her inheritance in a diversified portfolio designed for long-term growth.
  • Assisted Sarah with her estate planning discussions.
