Lo personal
I'm a music lover and an outdoor fanatic. If you ever run into me, it's either at a concert or passing by me in a hike somewhere in LA. I also volunteer for financial literacy programs in my spare time, when I can, to help continue spreading the word. And if you have a dog, I will pet it.

Max was incredibly helpful. He answered all of my questions and provided clarity on a real estate-related issue I was having difficulty analyzing on my own. He was very easy to talk to and provided fantastic insight and guidance. The follow-up summary that he sent covered everything we discussed and more. I will definitely be meeting with him again and feel like our time together was an hour well spent. I highly recommend his services. Thanks, Max, for being such a great resource.
Super Thorough and Incredibly Helpful!!!
I'm so glad I booked a meeting with Max! He came prepared to discuss my current financial situation as someone that is newly self-employed. I threw a lot of questions his way regarding current life and disability policies, 401k rollover, Roth conversions, and more. Max was incredibly thorough in his analysis and recommendations and covered all of my questions in detail. He also provided an extremely thorough recap email that covered everything we discussed, including future next steps to consider in the coming months/years. I look forward to booking with him again in the future!
Personalized Portfolio Review and Investment Plan
Max was great to work with. He took the time to understand my current financial situation, my priorities, and my long-term goals, then helped me turn that into a clear and practical investment plan. He reviewed my existing portfolio, identified ways to better diversify and simplify it, and explained his recommendations in a way that was easy to understand without being overwhelming. I left the meeting with a concrete plan for how to invest my money now, how to think about my different financial goals, and how my strategy can evolve over time. I really appreciated how personalized and actionable the guidance was.

The Perfect Fiduciary for Analytical Investors
Max Pashman is an exceptional advisor. I sought him out because I wanted a strict fiduciary to provide objective advice, and he absolutely delivered. If you are a self-directed investor looking for a high-quality analytical sounding board rather than a high-pressure sales pitch, Max is exactly who you need. I came to Max with a complex, multi-year situation involving income stacking, RSUs, a significant single-stock concentration problem, capital gains planning, multiple 401(k) rollovers, and eventual Roth conversions. Mapping out a transition to early retirement with zero earned income left a thin margin for error on tax strategy. What completely sets Max apart is his ability to meet analytical clients at their level: * Validation of Advanced Modeling: I sent Max a detailed, self-built model tracking projected income, capital gains headroom, and tax exposure. Instead of over-simplifying it, he reviewed it carefully. He validated the strategy, corrected key nuances regarding RSU cost-basis adjustments and sale timing, and ensured I stayed optimized within the 15% LTCG bracket while accounting for NIIT thresholds. * Tactical Execution & Strategy: He helped me build a clear, actionable plan for portfolio construction, asset rebalancing, and precise execution timing. He ensured I understood both the immediate tactical steps and the long-term "why," even guiding me through the initial execution. * True Fiduciary Objectivity: Having been heavily solicited by large traditional firms pushing high-fee, AUM-based advisory services, Max was a breath of fresh air. He provided grounded, zero-pressure perspective focused strictly on my best interests, with no hidden agenda. By the end of our engagement, I achieved absolute clarity and confidence stepping into early retirement. Max balanced long-term planning with immediate decisions, leaving me fully equipped to manage this plan on my own. He is highly analytical, approachable, and an exceptional advisor.
