Invest in What Lasts
A legacy plan may cover many areas of your life: retirement, goals for furthering education, strategic family philanthropy and creating a shared family mission, or addressing important issues of a family business. It begins with a conversation—sitting down and talking frankly about what wealth stands for beyond the number on a balance sheet. The Radecke Group understands there’s no one-size-fits-all formula for creating a legacy plan, because every family is different. Starting the conversation is the first step. We strive to understand the nuances in a polarized world. When you’re ready to move forward, we help you protect the things that matter most to you and your family. After all, we have families and values ourselves. And we believe in investing in what lasts.

So what prevents many of us from preparing for outcomes that, intellectually, we know we're all going to face?

Michael Radecke Sr. and Michael Radecke Jr. have been incredible to work with. They are patient, knowledgeable and have gone above and beyond to help me. I never handled my family's finances or investments prior to my husband passing away. They have made a very difficult time much less overwhelming. They have also been very kind throughout this whole process, not only to me, but to my three children whose money they manage as well. I feel confident putting my financial future in their hands.
