Is MoneyZen Wealth Management Right For You?

Not everyone needs a wealth manager. Not all wealth managers are a good fit. Is MoneyZen Wealth Management right for you? If the following describes you, there’s a good chance the answer may be, “Yes!”

• Your financial well-being is as important to you as your emotional, physical, and spiritual well-being.

• You want to remain involved in your financial future, but leave the details to us. • While money enriches your life and you’re not afraid to say so, you also know that it’s

not an end in itself.

• You are excited to delve beneath the surface and discover your MoneyZen. To you, it’s more than money, it’s about your life.

• Thinking about a relationship with us – our smart and simple process, leading-edge technology and personal touch – gives you a refreshing sense of relief.

What Is The MoneyZen Zone?

It is a place of , , and .

The MoneyZen zone is that delightful sweet spot where you are focused on the things that matter AND that are within your control. It is a place of profound clarity and strength. It guides all of our financial planning and investment decisions at

MoneyZen Wealth Management.

It brings you closer to the life you were meant to live.

MoneyZen Financial Acumen

“Earn and save it. Invest and protect it. Spend and enjoy it. Reflect on it and repeat.”- Manisha’s recipe for MoneyZen

By being a good steward with her own money, Manisha Thakor has been able to pursue her dream life – living in beautiful Santa Fe, NM and doing work that nourishes her soul. Applying the same model, she helps her MoneyZen Wealth Management clients realize their life dreams as well. Your enriched life begins with holistic financial planning and continues on with evidenced-based investment management:

Holistic Financial Planning + Investment Management = Mindful Wealth

At the core of the MoneyZen approach is a unique 5-steps methodology designed to put the personal back into personal finance. With a full array of expertly managed financial planning activities (cash flow/budgeting, debt management, education and retirement planning, insurance analysis, tax awareness, estate and philanthropic planning) we distinguish ourselves by never losing sight of the “Zen” goal that these potentially complex issues are all about: aligning your values with your money, to arrive at your impeccable plan. In this sense, your plan becomes a part of you, comfortable and complementary to your sense of well-being. With your financial plan in place, your dreams are next set into motion with MoneyZen’s straight-forward and clear investment strategy.

At MoneyZen Wealth Management, Our Investment

Strategy Is Driven By These Five Guiding Principles:

1. Markets work. As messy as global markets may seem close-up, they’re simply an evolving exchange for rewarding those who have faith that human enterprise will endure, and are willing to invest accordingly. To capture market growth, you need only be there when it happens. This is called passive investing.

2. Trying to beat the markets doesn’t work. Gaming the system – trying to predict winners and losers (stock picking), or react to trends (market timing) – is more likely to cause harm than good to your investments. The industry calls this active investing. We call it gambling.

3. Costs and taxes matter. Every dollar you spend on fees is one less dollar for you. Manage this readily controllable factor (in part by avoiding the added costs of active investing), and you’ve already made enormous strides toward your desired outcome. Smart and easy. Who can argue with that?

4. Risk and return are related. Take on less market risk to preserve what you’ve already got. Tolerate more market risk to accumulate more wealth over time. In financial-speak, we take on risk within your stock/equity holdings and temper that risk with high-quality fixed income/bond holdings. It’s like your car’s brakes and accelerator. Risk/reward and reliability: Most investors need some of each!

5. Diversification is key. Risk is expected to reward, but it’s also daunting when it appears. Diversifying your wealth across a variety of market risks helps you remain on course and in the driver’s seat, even when the road ahead is uncertain. Capturing the market takes staying power.

How Do We Do It?

MoneyZen applies its five points of investment clarity through these three simple steps:

1. Simplicity: Building and managing your globally diversified portfolio to reflect your unique goals.

2. Abundance: Implementing with low-cost, tax-efficient, passively managed investment vehicles (stock funds, ETFs, high-quality bond funds and/or laddered individual bond portfolios).

3. Freedom: Helping you stay the course with caring, personal guidance.
