About Us


Mark Wagner | President
Mark Wagner loves country living and has been helping people with their financial planning for more than 20 years. He understands the average person is looking for simple, common sense ways to prepare for retirement and take care of their valued possessions. That is why he wrote Building Financial Fences. Talking with Mark will help you gain the insight you need to make wise financial decisions, set up financial fences that make sense for your situation, and give you peace of mind that your loved ones are being taken care of.

Mark has a unique ability to communicate intricate financial concepts in everyday language. He is an independent insurance agent licensed in several states (including Ohio, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Hawaii, and Florida). In addition, he is a Certified Public Adjustor with certifications from FEMA and IICRC and a certified CPR and First Aid instructor with ASHI and the Red Cross. These qualifications have not caused Mark to lose touch with the average person’s experience. He still loves gardening, canning with his mom, driving in the country, and meeting people at the county fair.

Mark wants to help you meet your financial goals. He authored Building Financial Fences to give you ground-level insight into strategies and products that help you protect your assets. He is available to talk with you by phone or in person to help you sort out your strategic choices. He can offer you a range of services (from insurance to public adjusting to retirement planning) to keep your financial fences intact.

Mark’s main area of interest is helping you develop a common-sense financial plan. He knows you will sleep better and have more confidence when having money set aside to provide for your varied lifetime goals while also maintaining access to life’s unexpected turns. He knows you want to protect your assets and knows how to help you build the financial fences that will turn your dreams into strategic choices.

Our Services
What We Do For Clients

Picture
Asset Protection
​Retirement doesn’t mean that it’s time to stop growing.  Same holds true for your money.  It should mean, however, that it’s time to stop taking unnecessary risk. 
 
We specialize in helping retirees protect their retirement assets while continuing to move forward.
Picture
Family Legacy Planning
Many of our clients want to leave a legacy for their children and grandchildren and are shocked to learn how easy it is to double, even triple their inheritance – TAX-FREE AND GUARANTEED!
 
We also work with our clients and help them embrace their own mortality and be prepared for the loss of a spouse and the income burdens this can often create.   
      

Picture
Extended Care Solutions
Long-term care/extended care costs have gone up substantially in the last 10 years.  Unfortunately, the statistics are not in our favor, a plan to address these costs should be included in every retirement strategy.
 
The good news is we work with hybrid insurance plans that leverage your dollar in case you need it for extended care, but remain 100% accessible for withdrawal if you don’t.

Spend Down Protection

KNOW YOUR OPTIONS
Medicaid is a program that helps pay for medical assistance for certain individuals and families with low incomes and resources.
This program became law in 1965 and is jointly funded by the Federal and State governments (including the District of Columbia and the Territories) to assist States in providing medical long-term care assistance to people who meet certain eligibility criteria.
Medicaid is the largest source of funding for medical and health-related services for people with limited income.
Medicaid is health insurance that helps many people who can't afford medical care pay for some or all of their medical bills.
Good health is important to everyone. If you can't afford to pay for medical care right now, Medicaid can make it possible for you to get the care that you need so that you can get healthy – and stay healthy.

​Medicaid is available only to certain low-income individuals and families who fit into an eligibility group that is recognized by federal and state law. Medicaid does not pay money to you; instead, it sends payments directly to your health care providers. Depending on your state's rules, you may also be asked to pay a small part of the cost (co-payment) for some medical services.

BE PROTECTED
​We understand the important role that Medicaid plays in the lives of so many retirees. That is why we have gone to great lengths to protect retirees by teaching and guiding them through the different options.

Save On Taxes

inform yourself & save on taxes
BE INFORMED
The United States of America is the greatest country in the world! She has earned her freedom! It takes a lot to keep her thriving and it is our duty as citizens to pay our fair share of taxes. But as we save for our future, we want to make sure that we minimize our tax liability.
 SAVE ON TAXES
We understand that every cent in your retirement account is precious and we have ways to maximize your return while keeping your tax liability to an absolute minimum.
 THE QUESTION
Who do you think pays more in taxes?
  • The informed or
  • The uninformed
THE ANSWER
Of course, the uninformed pays more in taxes.
It is simply because the informed know how to use every opportunity, given to us by the IRS, to save money on taxes.
If you are interested in becoming INFORMED, be sure to talk with us for a complete explanation. For information on how this great concept can benefit you.

Smart Giving

Smart Giving: give without giving up
OBJECTIVE
Create an additional income stream for you without liquidating or putting "at risk" any of your assets. At the same time, providing to a charity an income stream of $50,000 to $500,000 each year without depleting the estate.
Your heirs still receive the entire estate!


CONCEPT
  1. Use your assets to purchase a SPIA (Single Premium Immediate Annuity.)
  2. Use the SPIA to generate an annual income for you which was not previously available.
  3. Purchase a life insurance policy to cover the loan against the assets, and provide a substantial payout to the charitable beneficiary upon death or maturity date.
Picture
Retirement Income
Creating an income plan to last throughout retirement is perhaps the single most important challenge retirees will face.  It’s very likely to spend 30 years or more living in retirement without earned income.
 
We create a customized retirement income plan, encompassing all sources of income, for each one of our clients and no two plans are exactly alike.  Let us get to work on a plan for you.

Probate Protection

protect yourself from probate
PROBATE: WHAT IS IT & WHAT DOES IT DO?
Probate is the process that transfers legal title of property from the estate of the person who has died (the "decedent") to his or her proper beneficiaries.
The term "probate" refers to a "proving" of the existence of a valid Will, or determining and "proving" who one's legal heirs are if there is no Will. Since the deceased can't take it with him, probate is the process used to determine who gets his or her property.
Even if a person dies with a Will (which is known as dying in "testate"), a court generally has to have an opportunity to allow others to object to the Will, and if there are any objections, to determine if the Will is valid, because it is always possible that one of the following seven items have occurred.
 POSSIBLE OBJECTIONS TO
A WILL
  1. There was a later Will (which, if valid, would replace the older Will), or
  2. The Will was made at a time the deceased was not mentally competent to make a Will, or
  3. The Will was the result of fraud, mistake or "undue influence" or
  4. The Will was not properly "executed", or
  5. The so-called Will is actually a forgery, or
  6. For some other reason (such as a pre-existing contract) the Will is not fully valid, or
  7. There are other claims against the deceased's estate that impact what the beneficiaries under the Will would receive

DETAILS ABOUT PROBATE
There are many reasons why going through probate is very undesirable.
Four of the most obvious are:
1. Cost
2. Time
3. Public
4. Contestable
Rollover each of the 4 above to read more about them.
These strategies could greatly improve your lifestyle! Call or email us today and find out how.
