Types of Advisory Services
Investment Management Services
We are in the business of managing individually tailored investment portfolios. Our firm
provides continuous advice to a client regarding the investment of client funds based on the
individual needs of the client. Through personal discussions in which goals and objectives based
on a client's particular circumstances are established, we develop a client's personal investment
policy or an investment plan with an asset allocation target and create and manage a portfolio
based on that policy and allocation target. During our data-gathering process, we determine
the client’s individual objectives, time horizons, risk tolerance and liquidity needs. We may also
review and discuss a client’s prior investment history, as well as family composition and
background.
Account supervision is guided by the stated objectives of the client (e.g., maximum capital
appreciation, growth, income, or growth and income), risk tolerance, as well as tax
considerations. Clients may impose reasonable restrictions on investing in certain securities,
types of securities, or industry sectors. Fees pertaining to this service are outlined in Item 5 of
this brochure.
Financial Planning
Financial planning is a comprehensive evaluation of a client’s current and future financial state
by using currently known variables to predict future cash flows, asset values and withdrawal
plans. The key defining aspect of financial planning is that through the financial planning
process, all questions, information and analysis will be considered as they impact and are
impacted by the entire financial and life situation of the client. Clients purchasing this service
will receive a written or an electronic report, providing the client with a detailed financial plan
designed to achieve his or her stated financial goals and objectives.
3
The client always has the right to decide whether or not to act upon our recommendations. If
the client elects to act on any of the recommendations, the client always has the right to affect
the transactions through anyone of their choosing.
In general, the financial plan will address any or all of the following areas of concern. The client
and advisor will work together to select the specific areas to cover. These areas may include,
but are not limited to, the following:
• Business Planning: We provide consulting services for clients who currently operate
their own business, are considering starting a business, or are planning for an exit from
their current business. Under this type of engagement, we work with you to assess your
current situation, identify your objectives, and develop a plan aimed at achieving your
goals.
• Cash Flow and Debt Management: We will conduct a review of your income and
expenses to determine your current surplus or deficit along with advice on prioritizing
how any surplus should be used or how to reduce expenses if they exceed your income.
Advice may also be provided on which debts to pay off first based on factors such as the
interest rate of the debt and any income tax ramifications. We may also recommend
what we believe to be an appropriate cash reserve that should be considered for
emergencies and other financial goals, along with a review of accounts (such as money
market funds) for such reserves, plus strategies to save desired amounts.
• College Savings: Includes projecting the amount that will be needed to achieve college
or other post-secondary education funding goals, along with advice on ways for you to
save the desired amount. Recommendations as to savings strategies are included, and, if
needed, we will review your financial picture as it relates to eligibility for financial aid or
the best way to contribute to grandchildren (if appropriate).
• Employee Benefits Optimization: We will provide review and analysis as to whether
you, as an employee, are taking the maximum advantage possible of your employee
benefits. If you are a business owner, we will consider and/or recommend the various
benefit programs that can be structured to meet both business and personal retirement
goals.
• Estate Planning: This usually includes an analysis of your exposure to estate taxes and
your current estate plan, which may include whether you have a will, powers of
attorney, trusts and other related documents. Our advice also typically includes ways for
you to minimize or avoid future estate taxes by implementing appropriate estate
4
planning strategies such as the use of applicable trusts.
We always recommend that you consult with a qualified attorney when you initiate,
update, or complete estate planning activities. We may provide you with contact
information for attorneys who specialize in estate planning when you wish to hire an
attorney for such purposes. From time-to-time, we will participate in meetings or phone
calls between you and your attorney with your approval or request.
• Financial Goals: We will help clients identify financial goals and develop a plan to reach
them. We will identify what you plan to accomplish, what resources you will need to
make it happen, how much time you will need to reach the goal, and how much you
should budget for your goal.
•
Insurance: Review of existing policies to ensure proper coverage for life, health,
disability, long-term care, liability, home and automobile.
•
Investment Analysis: This may involve developing an asset allocation strategy to meet
clients’ financial goals and risk tolerance, providing information on investment vehicles
and strategies, reviewing employee stock options, as well as assisting you in establishing
your own investment account at a selected broker/dealer or custodian. The strategies
and types of investments we may recommend are further discussed in Item 8 of this
brochure.
• Retirement Planning: Our retirement planning services typically include projections of
your likelihood of achieving your financial goals, typically focusing on financial
independence as the primary objective. For situations where projections show less than
the desired results, we may make recommendations, including those that may impact
the original projections by adjusting certain variables (e.g., working longer, saving more,
spending less, taking more risk with investments).
If you are near retirement or already retired, advice may be given on appropriate
distribution strategies to minimize the likelihood of running out of money or having to
adversely alter spending during your retirement years.
• Risk Management: A risk management review includes an analysis of your exposure to
major risks that could have a significantly adverse effect on your financial picture, such
as premature death, disability, property and casualty losses, or the need for long-term
care planning. Advice may be provided on ways to minimize such risks and about
5
weighing the costs of purchasing insurance versus the benefits of doing so and, likewise,
the potential cost of not purchasing insurance (“self-insuring”).
• Tax Planning Strategies: Advice may include ways to minimize current and future
income taxes as a part of your overall financial planning picture. For example, we may
make recommendations on which type of account(s) or specific investments should be
owned based in part on their “tax efficiency,” with consideration that there is always a
possibility of future changes to federal, state or local tax laws and rates that may affect
your situation.
We recommend that you consult with a qualified tax professional before initiating any
tax planning strategy, and we may provide you with contact information for accountants
or attorneys who specialize in this area if you wish to hire someone for such purposes.
We will participate in meetings or phone calls between you and your tax professional
with your approval.
Client Tailored Services and Client Imposed Restrictions
We offer the same suite of services to all of our clients. However, specific services are
dependent upon a client’s current situation (income, tax levels, and risk tolerance levels) and is
used to construct a client specific plan to aid in the selection of a portfolio that matches
restrictions, needs, and targets.
Wrap Fee Programs
We do sponsor and participate in a wrap fee program. Please see our Appendix 1 regarding our
wrap program information.
As of January 1, 2026, the firm’s assets under management total were $193,418,350 which are
all on a discretionary basis within our Wrap program.
Item 5: Fees and Compensation
Please note, unless a client has received the firm’s disclosure brochure at least 48 hours prior to
signing the investment advisory contract, the investment advisory contract may be terminated
by the client within five (5) business days of signing the contract without incurring any advisory
fees and without penalty. How we are paid depends on the type of advisory service we are
performing. Please review the fee and compensation information below.
6
Investment Management Services
Our standard advisory fee is based on the market value of the assets under management and is
calculated as follows:
Account Value
Annual Advisory Fee
1.50%
$1 - $500,000
1.25%
$500,000 - $1,000,000
1.00%
$1,000,000 - $3,000,000
Negotiable
$3,000,000 and Up
The annual fees are negotiable and are pro-rated and paid in advance on a quarterly basis. The
advisory fee is a flat and is calculated by assessing the percentage rates using the predefined
levels of assets as shown in the above chart. No increase in the annual fee shall be effective
without agreement from the client by signing a new agreement or amendment to their current
advisory agreement.
Advisory fees are directly debited from client accounts, or the client may choose to pay by
check. Accounts initiated or terminated during a calendar quarter will be charged a pro-rated
fee based on the amount of time remaining in the billing period. An account may be terminated
with written notice at least 15 calendar days in advance. Upon termination of the account, any
unearned fee will be refunded to the client on a prorated basis.
Financial Planning Fixed Fee
Financial Planning will generally be offered on a fixed fee basis. The fixed fee will be agreed
upon before the start of any work. The fixed fee can range between $1.00 and $25,000.00. The
fee is negotiable. If a fixed fee program is chosen, half of the fee is due at the beginning of
process and the remainder is due at completion of work, however, Future Financial Wealth will
not bill an amount above $1,200.00 more than 6 months in advance. In the event of early
termination, the client will be billed for the hours worked at a rate of $200.00 per hour. If the
initial deposit is greater than the amount billed, then the client will be refunded the difference.
If the initial deposit is less, then the client will be billed the difference.
Financial Planning Hourly Fee
Financial Planning fee is an hourly rate between $150.00 and $300.00 per hour, depending on
complexity. The fee may be negotiable in certain cases and is due at the completion of the
engagement. In the event of early termination by client, any fees for the hours already worked
will be due.
7
Other Types of Fees and Expenses
Our fees are exclusive of brokerage commissions, transaction fees, and other related costs and
expenses that may be incurred by the client. Clients may incur certain charges imposed by
custodians, brokers, and other third parties such as custodial fees, deferred sales charges, odd-
lot differentials, transfer taxes, wire transfer and electronic fund fees, and other fees and taxes
on brokerage accounts and securities transactions. Mutual fund and exchange traded funds
also charge internal management fees, which are disclosed in a fund’s prospectus. Such
charges, fees and commissions are exclusive of and in addition to our fee, and we shall not
receive any portion of these commissions, fees, and costs.
Item 12 further describes the factors that we consider in selecting or recommending broker-
dealers for client’s transactions and determining the reasonableness of their compensation
(e.g., commissions).
We do not accept compensation for the sale of securities or other investment products
including asset-based sales charges or service fees from the sale of mutual funds.
We do not offer performance-based fees.
Item 6: Performance-Based Fees and
Side-By-Side Management
We provide financial planning and portfolio management services to individuals, high net-worth
individuals, small businesses, pension and profiting sharing plans.
Item 7: Types of Clients
We do not have a minimum account size requirement.
Our primary methods of investment analysis are fundamental, technical, cyclical and charting
analysis.
Item 8: Methods of Analysis, Investment
Strategies and Risk of Loss
Fundamental analysis involves analyzing individual companies and their industry groups, such
as a company’s financial statements, details regarding the company’s product line, the
experience, and expertise of the company’s management, and the outlook for the company’s
industry. The resulting data is used to measure the true value of the company’s stock compared
to the current market value. The risk of fundamental analysis is that information obtained may
8
be incorrect and the analysis may not provide an accurate estimate of earnings, which may be
the basis for a stock’s value. If securities prices adjust rapidly to new information, utilizing
fundamental analysis may not result in favorable performance.
Technical analysis involves using chart patterns, momentum, volume, and relative strength in an
effort to pick sectors that may outperform market indices. However, there is no assurance of
accurate forecasts or that trends will develop in the markets we follow. In the past, there have
been periods without discernible trends and similar periods will presumably occur in the future.
Even where major trends develop, outside factors like government intervention could potentially
shorten them.
Furthermore, one limitation of technical analysis is that it requires price movement data, which
can translate into price trends sufficient to dictate a market entry or exit decision. In a trendless
or erratic market, a technical method may fail to identify trends requiring action. In addition,
technical methods may overreact to minor price movements, establishing positions contrary to
overall price trends, which may result in losses. Finally, a technical trading method may under
perform other trading methods when fundamental factors dominate price moves within a given
market.
Cyclical analysis is a type of technical analysis that involves evaluating recurring price patterns
and trends based upon business cycles. Economic/business cycles may not be predictable and
may have many fluctuations between long term expansions and contractions. The lengths of
economic cycles may be difficult to predict with accuracy and therefore the risk of cyclical
analysis is the difficulty in predicting economic trends and consequently the changing value of
securities that would be affected by these changing trends.
Charting analysis involves the gathering and processing of price and volume information for a
particular security. This price and volume information is analyzed using mathematical
equations. The resulting data is then applied to graphing charts, which is used to predict future
price movements based on price patterns and trends. Charts may not accurately predict future
price movements. Current prices of securities may not reflect all information about the security
and day-to-day changes in market prices of securities may follow random patterns and may not
be predictable with any reliable degree of accuracy.
Passive Investment Management
Passive investing involves building portfolios that are comprised of various distinct asset classes.
The asset classes are weighted in a manner to achieve a desired relationship between correlation,
risk and return. Funds that passively capture the returns of the desired asset classes are placed
in the portfolio. The funds that are used to build passive portfolios are typically index mutual
funds or exchange traded funds.
9
Passive investment management is characterized by low portfolio expenses (i.e. the funds inside
the portfolio have low internal costs), minimal trading costs (due to infrequent trading activity),
and relative tax efficiency (because the funds inside the portfolio are tax efficient and turnover
inside the portfolio is minimal).
In contrast, active management involves a single manager or managers who employ some
method, strategy or technique to construct a portfolio that is intended to generate returns that
are greater than the broader market or a designated benchmark.
Material Risks Involved
All investing strategies we offer involve risk and may result in a loss of your original
investment which you should be prepared to bear. Many of these risks apply equally to stocks,
bonds, commodities and any other investment or security. Material risks associated with our
investment strategies are listed below.
Market Risk: Market risk involves the possibility that an investment’s current market value will
fall because of a general market decline, reducing the value of the investment regardless of the
success of the issuer’s operations or its financial condition.
Strategy Risk: The Adviser’s investment strategies and/or investment techniques may not work
as intended.
Small and Medium Cap Company Risk: Securities of companies with small and medium market
capitalizations are often more volatile and less liquid than investments in larger companies.
Small and medium cap companies may face a greater risk of business failure, which could
increase the volatility of the client’s portfolio.
Turnover Risk: At times, the strategy may have a portfolio turnover rate that is higher than
other strategies. A high portfolio turnover would result in correspondingly greater brokerage
commission expenses and may result in the distribution of additional capital gains for tax
purposes. These factors may negatively affect the account’s performance.
Limited markets: Certain securities may be less liquid (harder to sell or buy) and their prices
may at times be more volatile than at other times. Under certain market conditions we may be
unable to sell or liquidate investments at prices we consider reasonable or favorable, or find
buyers at any price.
Concentration Risk: Certain investment strategies focus on particular asset-classes, industries,
sectors or types of investment. From time to time these strategies may be subject to greater
risks of adverse developments in such areas of focus than a strategy that is more broadly
diversified across a wider variety of investments.
10
Interest Rate Risk: Bond (fixed income) prices generally fall when interest rates rise, and the
value may fall below par value or the principal investment. The opposite is also generally true:
bond prices generally rise when interest rates fall. In general, fixed income securities with
longer maturities are more sensitive to these price changes. Most other investments are also
sensitive to the level and direction of interest rates.
Legal or Legislative Risk: Legislative changes or Court rulings may impact the value of
investments, or the securities’ claim on the issuer’s assets and finances.
Inflation: Inflation may erode the buying-power of your investment portfolio, even if the dollar
value of your investments remains the same.
Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning Risk. Certain service providers utilized by the
Firm to service client accounts have artificial intelligence components. The use of artificial
intelligence and machine learning includes increased risk of data inaccuracies and security
vulnerabilities. Due to the rapid advancement of machine learning technologies, future risks
related to artificial intelligence are unpredictable. As a measure to mitigate these risks to our
clients, the Firm performs periodic due diligence of our service providers for assurance that the
service providers have appropriate controls in place to protect our clients’ information and to
limit data inaccuracies when artificial intelligence is used by the service provider.
Risks Associated with Securities
Apart from the general risks outlined above which apply to all types of investments, specific
securities may have other risks.
Commercial Paper is, in most cases, an unsecured promissory note that is issued with a
maturity of 270 days or less. Being unsecured the risk to the investor is that the issuer may
default.
Common stocks may go up and down in price quite dramatically, and in the event of an issuer’s
bankruptcy or restructuring could lose all value. A slower-growth or recessionary economic
environment could have an adverse effect on the price of all stocks.
Corporate Bonds are debt securities to borrow money. Generally, issuers pay investors periodic
interest and repay the amount borrowed either periodically during the life of the security
and/or at maturity. Alternatively, investors can purchase other debt securities, such as zero
coupon bonds, which do not pay current interest, but rather are priced at a discount from their
face values and their values accrete over time to face value at maturity. The market prices of
debt securities fluctuate depending on such factors as interest rates, credit quality, and
maturity. In general, market prices of debt securities decline when interest rates rise and
increase when interest rates fall. The longer the time to a bond’s maturity, the greater its
interest rate risk.
11
Bank Obligations including bonds and certificates of deposit may be vulnerable to setbacks or
panics in the banking industry. Banks and other financial institutions are greatly affected by
interest rates and may be adversely affected by downturns in the U.S. and foreign economies or
changes in banking regulations.
Municipal Bonds are debt obligations generally issued to obtain funds for various public
purposes, including the construction of public facilities. Municipal bonds pay a lower rate of
return than most other types of bonds. However, because of a municipal bond’s tax-favored
status, investors should compare the relative after-tax return to the after-tax return of other
12
bonds, depending on the investor’s tax bracket. Investing in municipal bonds carries the same
general risks as investing in bonds in general. Those risks include interest rate risk, reinvestment
risk, inflation risk, market risk, call or redemption risk, credit risk, and liquidity and valuation
risk.
Options and other derivatives carry many unique risks, including time-sensitivity, and can
result in the complete loss of principal. While covered call writing does provide a partial hedge
to the stock against which the call is written, the hedge is limited to the amount of cash flow
received when writing the option. When selling covered calls, there is a risk the underlying
position may be called away at a price lower than the current market price.
Exchange Traded Funds prices may vary significantly from the Net Asset Value due to market
conditions. Certain Exchange Traded Funds may not track underlying benchmarks as expected.
Investment Companies Risk. When a client invests in open end mutual funds or ETFs, the client
indirectly bears its proportionate share of any fees and expenses payable directly by those
funds. Therefore, the client will incur higher expenses, many of which may be duplicative. In
addition, the client’s overall portfolio may be affected by losses of an underlying fund and the
level of risk arising from the investment practices of an underlying fund (such as the use of
derivatives). ETFs are also subject to the following risks: (i) an ETF’s shares may trade at a
market price that is above or below their net asset value; (ii) the ETF may employ an investment
strategy that utilizes high leverage ratios; or (iii) trading of an ETF’s shares may be halted if the
listing exchange’s officials deem such action appropriate, the shares are de-listed from the
exchange, or the activation of market-wide “circuit breakers” (which are tied to large decreases
in stock prices) halts stock trading generally. The Adviser has no control over the risks taken by
the underlying funds in which clients invest.
Future Financial Wealth or its Principal Executive Officers have not had any reportable
disclosable events in the past ten years.
Criminal or Civil Actions
Item 9: Disciplinary Information
Proceedings
Future Financial Wealth and its management have not been involved in administrative
enforcement proceedings.
Self-Regulatory Organization Enforcement Proceedings
Future Financial Wealth and its management have not been involved in legal or disciplinary
events that are material to a client’s or prospective client’s evaluation of Future Financial
Wealth or the integrity of its management.
13
No Future Financial Wealth employee is registered, or have an application pending to register,
as a futures commission merchant, commodity pool operator or a commodity trading advisor.
Item 10: Other Financial Industry
Activities and Affiliations
Future Financial Wealth only receives compensation directly from clients. We do not receive
compensation from any outside source. We do not have any conflicts of interest with any
outside party.
Dennis P. Marinich II is licensed as a registered representative of Purshe Kaplan Sterling
Investment, Inc., a FINRA Broker/Dealer. As such, in their separate capacity as a registered
representative, will be able to effect securities transactions for your account, for which they will
receive separate and customary compensation. While we endeavor at all times to put the
interest of our clients first as part of our firm's fiduciary duty, you should be aware that the
receipt of additional compensation itself creates a conflict of interest and may affect their
judgment when making recommendations.
Dennis P. Marinich II is licensed to sell life and health insurance and may engage in product
sales with our clients, for which he will receive additional compensation. Any commissions
received through life or health insurance sales do not offset advisory fees the client may pay for
advisory services under Future Financial Wealth.
Item 11: Code of Ethics, Participation or
Interest in Client Transactions and
Personal Trading
As a fiduciary, our firm and its associates have a duty of utmost good faith to act solely in the
best interests of each client. Our clients entrust us with their funds and personal information,
which in turn places a high standard on our conduct and integrity. Our fiduciary duty is a core
aspect of our Code of Ethics and represents the expected basis of all of our dealings.
14
Code of Ethics Description
This code does not attempt to identify all possible conflicts of interest, and literal compliance
with each of its specific provisions will not shield associated persons from liability for personal
trading or other conduct that violates a fiduciary duty to advisory clients. A summary of the Code
of Ethics' Principles is outlined below.
Integrity - Associated persons shall offer and provide professional services with integrity.
•
•
Objectivity - Associated persons shall be objective in providing professional services to
clients.
•
Competence - Associated persons shall provide services to clients competently and
maintain the necessary knowledge and skill to continue to do so in those areas in which
they are engaged.
•
Fairness - Associated persons shall perform professional services in a manner that is fair
and reasonable to clients, principals, partners, and employers, and shall disclose
conflict(s) of interest in providing such services.
•
Confidentiality - Associated persons shall not disclose confidential client information
without the specific consent of the client unless in response to proper legal process, or as
required by law.
•
Professionalism - Associated persons’ conduct in all matter shall reflect credit of the
profession.
Diligence - Associated persons shall act diligently in providing professional services.
•
We periodically review and amend our Code of Ethics to ensure that it remains current, and we
require all firm access persons to attest to their understanding of and adherence to the Code of
Ethics at least annually. Our firm will provide of copy of its Code of Ethics to any client or
prospective client upon request.
Investment Recommendations Involving a Material Financial Interest and
Conflicts of Interest
Neither our firm, its associates or any related person is authorized to recommend to a client, or
effect a transaction for a client, involving any security in which our firm or a related person has
a material financial interest, such as in the capacity as an underwriter, adviser to the issuer, etc.
Advisory Firm Purchase of Same Securities Recommended to Clients and
Conflicts of Interest
Our firm and its “related persons” may buy or sell securities similar to, or different from, those
we recommend to clients for their accounts. Our policy is designed to assure that the personal
15
securities transactions, activities and interests of the employees of our firm will not interfere
with (i) making decisions in the best interest of advisory clients and (ii) implementing such
decisions while, at the same time, allowing employees to invest for their own accounts.
Nonetheless, because the Code of Ethics in some circumstances would permit employees to
invest in the same securities as clients, there is a possibility that employees might benefit from
market activity by a client in a security held by an employee. In an effort to reduce or eliminate
certain conflicts of interest involving the firm or personal trading, our policy may require that
we restrict or prohibit associates’ transactions in specific reportable securities transactions. Any
exceptions or trading pre-clearance must be approved by the firm principal in advance of the
transaction in an account, and we maintain the required personal securities transaction records
per regulation.
Trading Securities at/Around the Same Time as Client’s Securities
From time to time, our firm or its “related persons” may buy or sell securities for themselves at
or around the same time as clients. We will not trade non-mutual fund securities prior to the
same security for clients on the same day.
Factors Used to Select Custodians and/or Broker-Dealers
Item 12: Brokerage Practices
Future Financial Wealth Management Group, LLC does not have any affiliation with Broker-
Dealers. Specific custodian recommendations are made to client based on their need for such
services. We recommend custodians based on the reputation and services provided by the firm.
Future Financial Wealth recommends that clients establish brokerage accounts with the
Schwab Advisor Services division of Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (Schwab), a registered broker-
dealer, member SIPC, to maintain custody of clients’ assets and to effect trades for their
accounts. Future Financial Wealth is independently owned and operated and not affiliated
with Schwab. Schwab provides Future Financial Wealth with access to its institutional trading
and custody services, which are typically not available to Schwab retail investors. These services
generally are available to independent investment advisors on an unsolicited basis, at no charge
to them so long as a total of at least $10 million of the advisor’s clients’ assets are maintained in
accounts at Schwab Advisor Services. Schwab’s services include brokerage services that are
related to the execution of securities transactions, custody, research, including that in the form
of advice, analyses and reports, and access to mutual funds and other investments that are
otherwise generally available only to institutional investors or would require a significantly
higher minimum initial investment.
For Future Financial Wealth client accounts maintained in its custody, Schwab generally does
not charge separately for custody services but is compensated by account holders through
16
commissions or other transaction-related or asset-based fees for securities trades that are
executed through Schwab or that settle into Schwab accounts.
Schwab also makes available to Future Financial Wealth other products and services that
benefit Future Financial Wealth but may not benefit its clients’ accounts. These benefits may
include national, regional or Future Financial Wealth specific educational events organized
and/or sponsored by Schwab Advisor Services. Other potential benefits may include occasional
business entertainment of personnel of Future Financial Wealth by Schwab Advisor Services
personnel, including meals, invitations to sporting events, including golf tournaments, and
other forms of entertainment, some of which may accompany educational opportunities.
Other of these products and services assist Future Financial Wealth in managing and
administering clients’ accounts. These include software and other technology (and related
technological training) that provide access to client account data (such as trade confirmations
and account statements), facilitate trade execution (and allocation of aggregated trade orders
for multiple client accounts), provide research, pricing information and other market data,
facilitate payment of Future Financial Wealth’s fees from its clients’ accounts, and assist with
back-office training and support functions, recordkeeping and client reporting. Many of these
services generally may be used to service all or some substantial number of Future Financial
Wealth’s accounts, including accounts not maintained at Schwab Advisor Services. Schwab
Advisor Services also makes available to Future Financial Wealth other services intended to help
Future Financial Wealth manage and further develop its business enterprise. These services
may include professional compliance, legal and business consulting, publications and
conferences on practice management, information technology, business succession, regulatory
compliance, employee benefits providers, human capital consultants, insurance and marketing.
In addition, Schwab may make available, arrange and/or pay vendors for these types of services
rendered to Future Financial Wealth by independent third parties. Schwab Advisor Services may
discount or waive fees it would otherwise charge for some of these services or pay all or a part
of the fees of a third-party providing these services to Future Financial Wealth. While, as a
fiduciary, Future Financial Wealth endeavors to act in its clients’ best interests, Future Financial
Wealth’s recommendation/requirement that clients maintain their assets in accounts at
Schwab may be based in part on the benefit to Future Financial Wealth of the availability of
some of the foregoing products and services and other arrangements and not solely on the
nature, cost or quality of custody and brokerage services provided by Schwab, which may
create a potential conflict of interest.
Research and Other Soft-Dollar Benefits
We currently do not receive soft dollar benefits.

Brokerage for Client Referrals
We receive no referrals from a broker-dealer or third party in exchange for using that broker-
dealer or third party.
Clients Directing Which Broker/Dealer/Custodian to Use
We do recommend a specific custodian for clients to use, however, clients may custody their
assets at a custodian of their choice. Clients may also direct us to use a specific broker-dealer
to execute transactions. By allowing clients to choose a specific custodian, we may be unable
to achieve most favorable execution of client transaction and this may cost clients’ money over
using a lower-cost custodian.
Aggregating (Block) Trading for Multiple Client Accounts
Generally, we combine multiple orders for shares of the same securities purchased for advisory
accounts we manage (this practice is commonly referred to as “block trading”). We will then
distribute a portion of the shares to participating accounts in a fair and equitable manner. The
distribution of the shares purchased is typically proportionate to the size of the account, but it
is not based on account performance or the amount or structure of management fees. Subject
to our discretion, regarding particular circumstances and market conditions, when we combine
orders, each participating account pays an average price per share for all transactions and pays
a proportionate share of all transaction costs. Accounts owned by our firm or persons
associated with our firm may participate in block trading with your accounts; however, they will
not be given preferential treatment.
Item 13: Review of Accounts
Client accounts with the Investment Management Service will be reviewed regularly on a
quarterly basis by Dennis P. Marinich II, President and CCO, and Dennis P. Marinich as Vice
President and Principal. The account is reviewed with regards to the client’s investment policies
and risk tolerance levels. Events that may trigger a special review would be unusual
performance, addition or deletions of client imposed restrictions, excessive draw-down,
volatility in performance, or buy and sell decisions from the firm or per client's needs.
Clients will receive trade confirmations from the broker(s) for each transaction in their accounts
as well as monthly or quarterly statements and annual tax reporting statements from their
custodian showing all activity in the accounts, such as receipt of dividends and interest.
Future Financial Wealth will provide written reports to investment management clients on a
quarterly basis. We urge clients to compare these reports against the account statements they
receive from their custodian.
18
Item 14: Client Referrals and Other
Compensation
We do not receive any economic benefit, directly or indirectly from any third party for advice
rendered to our clients. Please see Item 12 above for benefits received from Charles Schwab &
Co., Inc.
Our firm may engage in promoter arrangements for client referrals. These individual promoters
offer our services to the public. The Firm pays or receives a referral fee to or as the promoter
based on a portion of the management fees charged by the Firm and memorialized in a written
agreement (“Promoter Agreement”). In all cases, the Firm will comply with the cash solicitation
rules established by the SEC, state regulators and the client disclosure requirements. If a
referred prospective client enters into an investment advisory agreement with the Firm, a
referral fee is paid to the referring party. The referral relationship will not result in clients being
charged any fees over and above the normal advisory fees charged for the advisory services
provided. The Firm will pay the promoter their share of the total fee. The Promoter Agreement
requires that the promoter be appropriately registered under federal and state securities laws
where applicable. Clients receive all related agreements and disclosures prior to or at the time
of entering into an Investment Advisory Agreement with the Firm.
Item 15: Custody
Future Financial Wealth does not accept custody of client funds. Clients should receive at least
quarterly statements from the broker dealer, bank or other qualified custodian that holds and
maintains the client’s investment assets. We urge you to carefully review such statements and
compare such official custodial records to the account statements or reports that we may
provide to you. Our statements or reports may vary from custodial statements based on
accounting procedures, reporting dates, or valuation methodologies of certain securities.
Future Financial Wealth does not have physical custody of any client funds and/or securities
and does not take custody of client accounts at any time. Client funds and securities will be
held with a bank, broker dealer, or other independent qualified custodian. However, by
granting Future Financial Wealth written authorization to automatically deduct fees from
client accounts, Future Financial Wealth is deemed to have limited custody. You will receive
account statements from the independent, qualified custodian holding your funds at least
quarterly. The account statement from your custodian will indicate the amount of advisory
fees deducted from your account(s) each billing cycle. Clients should carefully review
statements received from the custodian.
19
Standing Letters of Authorization
Some clients may execute limited powers of attorney or other standing letters of authorization
that permit the firm to transfer money from their account with the client’s independent
qualified Custodian to third parties. This authorization to direct the Custodian may be deemed
to cause our firm to exercise limited custody over your funds or securities and for regulatory
reporting purposes, we are required to keep track of the number of clients and accounts for
which we may have this ability. We do not have physical custody of any of your funds and/or
securities. Your funds and securities will be held with a bank, broker-dealer, or other
independent, qualified custodian. You will receive account statements from the independent,
qualified custodian(s) holding your funds and securities at least quarterly. The account
statements from your custodian(s) will indicate any transfers that may have taken place within
your account(s) each billing period. You should carefully review account statements for
accuracy.
Item 16: Investment Discretion
For those client accounts where we provide investment management services, we maintain
discretion over client accounts with respect to securities to be bought and sold and the amount
of securities to be bought and sold. Investment discretion is explained to clients in detail when
an advisory relationship has commenced. At the start of the advisory relationship, the client will
execute a Limited Power of Attorney, which will grant our firm discretion over the account.
Additionally, the discretionary relationship will be outlined in the advisory contract and signed
by the client. Clients may impose reasonable restrictions on investing in certain securities,
types of securities, or industry sectors.
Item 17: Voting Client Securities
We do not vote Client proxies. Therefore, Clients maintain exclusive responsibility for: (1) voting
proxies, and (2) acting on corporate actions pertaining to the Client’s investment assets. The
Client shall instruct the Client’s qualified custodian to forward to the Client copies of all proxies
and shareholder communications relating to the Client’s investment assets. If the client would
like our opinion on a particular proxy vote, they may contact us at the number listed on the
cover of this brochure.
In most cases, you will receive proxy materials directly from the account custodian. However, in
the event we were to receive any written or electronic proxy materials, we would forward them
directly to you by mail, unless you have authorized our firm to contact you by electronic mail, in
which case, we would forward you any electronic solicitation to vote proxies.
20
Item 18: Financial Information
Registered Investment Advisers are required in this Item to provide you with certain financial
information or disclosures about our financial condition. We have no financial commitment that
impairs our ability to meet contractual and fiduciary commitments to clients, and we have not
been the subject of a bankruptcy proceeding.
We do not have custody of client funds or securities or require or solicit prepayment of more
than $1,200 in fees per client six months in advance.
