Timothy P. McKee, CPA, PFS I serve individuals, families, and business owners across the country by creating financial plans that bring clarity and reduce confusion. Timothy P.

McKee, CPA
I am a flat fee financial planner offering fiduciary, fee-only financial advice in Ohio and across the country. I am a Certified Public Accountant licensed in Ohio and Pennsylvania, with a Personal Financial Specialist credential. As a CPA, I bring an emphasis on tax efficiency to financial planning. I consider the tax impact of planning strategies to be critical to properly serving individual clients and small businesses. As a Personal Financial Specialist (PFS), a credential is granted exclusively to CPAs, I am an experienced tax professional with a comprehensive knowledge of financial planning. All areas of personal financial planning — estate, retirement, investments and insurance — have tax implications. From my years in the bank, particularly leading compensation and benefits, I have a strong understanding of employee compensation programs, including executive compensation.

Long-term care.

As a financial planner, who is also a CPA, I help families plan for the realities of aging.

Rather than “book” knowledge, I have a plenty of personal experience. In own family, I have helped my own parents and other family members with long-term care needs, both financial and personal care. My brother and sister dedicated a lot of their time to provide daily personal care over the last few years of these family members’ lives, so that personal care homes were not necessary. Family came together to care for family.

Not all families have that option.

Read about seven ways to fund long-term care needs.

When at S&T Bank, I was responsible for overseeing the pension and 401(k) plan. I enjoyed that part of my job a lot.

If you are new to 401(k) plans or need a refresher, click on the link below for a short piece that I wrote about these plans.

If you need help with your own 401(k) account, let me know. I would be happy to help.

Are you married? What do you know about the Widow’s Tax?

Losing a spouse is devastating enough. Then the IRS sends a tax bill that's thousands of dollars higher — on the same income.

Here's why it happens and what you can do about it now.

The way your financial advisor is paid determines their behavior. They may recommend something to you not because it is in your best interest, but because they reap the financial rewards for it.

Will you be in a higher tax bracket in retirement?

After Social Security, pensions, and other income, retirees can end up in a higher tax bracket than they expected.

So said an article in USA Today (7/22).

I wrote two articles about how Roth Conversions could help you better manage taxes on your retirement income:

Could a vacation or second home fit into your life? Ever think about it?

Owning a vacation (or second) home can be a deeply personal decision — a place to unwind, gather with family, or create lasting memories. But it’s also a meaningful financial decision that touches many parts of your overall plan.

Click on the article below for what to consider when thinking about a vacation or second home.

A residuary clause is the part of your will that distributes the “residue” of your estate. This residue includes any assets left after specific bequests, debts, taxes and administrative costs have been paid. It might include forgotten bank accounts, newly acquired property or investments you didn’t specifically name in your will. Failing to include a residuary clause can create problems. When assets aren’t covered by specific instructions in a will, they’re considered “intestate property.” This means those assets will be distributed according to state intestacy laws rather than your personal wishes.
