Firm Information
Guideway Financial is a fee-only financial planning and investments management firm that provides comprehensive services to individuals and families, with a particular focus upon retirement income strategies. Using a patented approach, Guideway creates plans that are designed for retirement income to endure for an exact time, thus reducing worry whether income will last throughout retirement. Guideway was formed in 2013 in Austin, Texas, and serves clients throughout Texas.
As a fee-only firm, the advisors at Guideway Financial are fiduciaries, and they do not sell any products or receive commissions or referral fees of any kind. In addition, Guideway uses a fixed fee-for-service model (aka retainer), rather than charge a percentage of assets under management (AUM). The firm's leaders believe that this is the best way to serve as fiduciaries and place clients' interests first.
