Found Michael Ruger's YouTube and blog post regarding inherited IRA's. He gave a more clear and understanding explanation of the 10-year Rule and Designated Eligible Beneficiaries. His posts are more current than any others I found. Michael also responded to my inquiry within 24 hours; which surprised me since I was expecting a later response since I sent my message so close to April 15, assuming he would be busy assisting his paying clients in preparation of tax day and with questions regarding the current bouncing of the stock markets.

The information in Michael's videos and on his website were extremely informative. I learned about a Social Security benefit for children that I had not heard about before from any source. When I reached out with a follow up question he provided me with a prompt, courteous, and professional response. Very very delighted with his knowledge and information and professional courtesy.

Mr. Michael Ruger's explanations of certain financial situations on the Greenbush Financial website are invaluable! This information is publicly available and well worth the read. After reading several articles, I had some unanswered questions about my particular situation. I reached out to him directly and he was gracious enough to respond in writing immediately! Although I live on the opposite side of our country, if I ever have need of his services, I would not hesitate to contact him. Very professional, thorough, knowledgeable and gracious.

I first came upon Michael and Greenbush Financial Group by reading his blog and I decided to email him and ask him a question about my 403B and retirement allocation. Low and behold, Michael emailed me immediately and asked if I would like to discuss it further. Michael sent me a calendar of dates to choose from and we scheduled a 30 minute call. Michael was lovely. He listened to me carefully and share very pertinent information with me. I felt that he truly heard me and cared about my situation. I felt that his guidance was concise, professional and expert. He gave me similar advice to my local CPA, but I was able to understand it better so I trusted his advice. Just 30 minutes to so much understanding of what I need to do to going towards retirement. I can't thank Michael enough. I highly recommend reaching out and scheduling a 30 minute meeting with Michael for anyone who has questions about the direction they should take for their portfolio and especially those who are close to retirement.

After tragically losing my fiancé just weeks before our wedding, I inherited some of his union benefits. I have sought financial guidance from expensive attorneys and high-priced tax advisors for the past year, but none have been helpful.

Yesterday, I came across a video on YouTube by Michael Ruger from Greenbush Financial Group. He shared some excellent advice, and I had a few additional questions. I decided to send him an email, not expecting a response.

To my surprise, Mr. Ruger personally replied within the hour, providing all the information I needed. After a year of consulting costly advisors and attorneys, Mr. Ruger was able to resolve my issue immediately—at no cost to me.

He saved me from a significant tax burden and renewed my faith in humanity. Thank you, Michael Ruger and Greenbush Financial Group!
