I wanted to share an important update. I’ve recently sold my Federal Employee’s Retirement Planning services (website and blog)—a milestone that comes with a mix of gratitude, pride, and excitement for what’s ahead.
While ownership has changed, my commitment to you has not. I’ll continue to write and share insights as a consultant. This move opens the door for me to focus more intentionally on producing the thoughtful, practical articles you’ve come to expect, without the distractions of managing the business.
My business was founded in 1985, and now, after 41 years, it’s time to hand over the operations and day-to-day management of our web properties to Government Retirement Solutions, LLC. This company, which has the resources and expertise to navigate this constantly changing environment, will be able to manage and grow these services.

Website Updates Coming Soon
As part of an important transition, I want to let you know that the website and blog will be undergoing several updates in the coming weeks. These changes are connected to the site’s new ownership and are designed to improve your experience, strengthen the resources available to you, and ensure the platform continues to grow in a positive direction.
The core purpose of the site will remain the same. You will still find the practical guidance, clear explanations, and federal benefits insights you’ve come to rely on. What will change is the behind-the-scenes structure: updated navigation, refreshed content organization, and a more streamlined way to access the information you need. These improvements are intended to make the site easier to use, faster to navigate, and better aligned with the needs of federal employees and retirees.
During this transition, you may notice adjustments to page layouts, article formatting, or how certain tools and resources are presented. Some sections may be temporarily moved or reorganized as the new team works to modernize the platform. My goal is to keep any disruption to a minimum and ensure you always know what’s happening before changes go live.
Continuing Involvement
Although ownership has changed, my role as a consultant and content creator continues. I will still be writing, analyzing policy updates, and sharing insights to help you make informed decisions about your federal benefits and retirement planning. The new ownership simply provides a stronger foundation for the site’s long-term growth and stability.
With some of the new innovations, you will receive additional information through more media, and additional contributors will delve more deeply into our subject matter. I intend to expand our reach through social media to bring our depth of knowledge and passion for the information to younger generations of federal employees and their families.
Your trust and readership mean a great deal, and I want this transition to feel smooth, transparent, and beneficial. I’ll continue to keep you updated as new features roll out and as the site evolves. If you ever have questions about the changes or feedback on what would make the site more useful to you, I welcome your thoughts.
Thank you for being part of this community and for your continued support during this next chapter. I’m looking forward to bringing you an even better experience as these updates take shape.
