Investing Thoughts from Toler Financial Group
Why Invest? Join us for a short talk about several core investment concepts by watching this video.
Your Investments
Investments are your future, your hopes and dreams. They are how you plan for the good things in life, the second homes, the big travel budget in retirement, the best-fit colleges for your children. And for most of us, they are what secures our old age, allowing us to be comfortable and confident when we are done working.
Investments and Time
We start with your goals and values, where you are in your life, and what you understand about financial markets and the bigger economic forces that shape our lives. We discuss how we work together to construct a portfolio with the right balance of growth opportunities and stability, given everything we have come to understand about your finances, preferences and timeline.
Working Together for a Good Fit
We then work together towards a good fit of what’s important to you in all of these factors:
- Desire for growth and protection from inflation risks
- Tolerance for market fluctuation
- Structure for planned income and unplanned needs
- Tax effect now and later
- Align your portfolio with your values – Environmental, Social and Governance factors of Socially Responsible Investing
- Fees and expenses
- Diversification across asset classes and sectors to reduce risk
Toler Financial Group has many clients who want their investments to better reflect their values, and we manage a suite of socially responsible portfolios to meet these goals. We also have access to a wide range of portfolios managed by other professionals – we are sure to find a solution that meets your needs.

Diversification and asset allocation strategies do not assure profit or protect against loss. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investing involves risk. Depending on the types of investments, there may be varying degrees of risk. Investors should be prepared to bear loss, including total loss of principal.
