Long-Term Care Planning

Our unique approach to long-term care planning will help you prepare for the future by protecting your assets and ensuring you receive quality care if needed. While most Long Term Care Plans are use it or lose it, our strategy will safe guard your valuable assets for your family if you never end up needing care at all. We guide you through developing strategies to cover the costs without depleting your savings in a tax efficient manner.

Tax Planning

While your accountant is likely doing a great job of helping you avoid overpaying your taxes in the short term, we can help you avoid kicking the tax can so far down the road that it comes back to bite you later in life. We do this by evaluating opportunities to convert tax deferred assets into tax free assets and help you evaluate when it does and doesn’t make sense to implement these strategies.

We were looking for a financial advisor for retirement and so glad to have found Tony. His seminar covered everything we needed to know, eliminating the mystery of finances. He took time to learn about our situation and worked hard to build our retirement plan. Creative, detailed, friendly, and attentive service. We are very happy with the results, and relieved to know that we are in good shape. We have recommended Rockford Retirement Planning to family and friends.Two years later: We are very happy with what Antonio has done for us, by planning and setting up our finances for retirement. Now we can relax about the money, and start focusing on our retirement dreams.

As we were getting close to retiring at 62 we were questioning if it was possible . Tony was referred to us by a friend who he helped. Our first visit was all it took. Tonys specialty is to help the working class along with the wealthy. It is possible and if you are approaching retirement you need to contact Tony for a no high pressure meeting.

Antonio (Tony) is the most honest individual that we know not only as a business person but a pillar in the community. Tony, for many years had sold my wife and I on the idea of Being Our Own Bankers.Years later, now retired we are able to receive what we call our vacation check once a year. Pulling funds from what Tony has used as the Three Buckets of Investments System.We live in a different state now that we're retired. However; we don't plan on making any moves with our investments.

Getting started with the Rockford Retirement Center has been really easy to transition, the only issue we have is that we feel communication after doing all the transfers has been absent. We understand that it is still early in the process, however we have not seen our portfolio and really don't know what our next steps are.

Not only is Tony extremely knowledgeable, he is a stand up guy. Credibility & trust is of utmost importance, and nonnegotiable in the world of financial services. Over the last 5 years of knowing him, I've seen Tony demonstrate this over and over in the way he handles clients, operates his practice, mentors other advisors, and gives back to the industry. I highly recommend Antonio Fillipone!
