McAdam Financial has been a fantastic partner for the last seven years. My advisor, Steven Schmuhl, is outstanding—responsive, knowledgeable, and genuinely supportive. Every interaction feels thoughtful and tailored, and Steven consistently provides great advice and insight that helps me make confident decisions. He also makes the relationship personal in the best way—he takes the time to connect, and we always enjoy catching up on our mutual love of Big Ten sports. The whole team is excellent, and I truly feel like I’m on track for early retirement because of the planning and guidance I’ve received. I can’t recommend Steven and McAdam Financial enough.
I’ve had the pleasure of working with Michael Lynch as my financial advisor, and I can confidently say he goes above and beyond for his clients.

My advisor, Peter Molnar, has already earned me several times what it costs to sign up in just the short timeframe I have been with them.

I would recommend them, and specifically Peter, to anyone looking to optimize their portfolio’s earning potential.
