You are a portfolio manager at a private bank and have recently been assigned three new Naples based clients.

Keith and Debbie are both 45 years old, married, with two children. They both work and have retirement plans but don’t know anything about them at all. They are concerned about future college expenses (both are in middle school) and retirement.
Bernie is 70 years old. He has been retired for 4 years. He owns his home outright (i.e., no mortgage).
