But those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength.They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, They will walk and not be faint. Isaiah 40:31 Pursuing dreams often means leaving the familiar behind - family warmth, a childhood home's comfort, and job security. It requires diving into the unknown, fueled by courage and unwavering confidence. Alex Angst exemplifies these qualities through his journey. He meticulously researched, planned, and then made the bold decision to uproot his young family to Tampa, Florida. He then launched RISE Capital, his financial advisory firm. Is Alex's journey really unlike the leap into retirement? Both require crafting a plan that aligns with dreams, breaking free of employment constraints, and embracing a new lifestyle. This transition is underpinned by faith and wise counsel. With over fifteen years of advisory experience and having counseled thousands of retirees, Alex developed a distinctive process rooted in his faith, core values, and professional convictions. The firm's logo prominently showcases an eagle, symbolizing strength and vision, which is echoed in the RISE planning process: R - Review: Examine dreams, goals, and personal concerns.I - Integrate: Align aspirations with actionable strategies.S - Support: Implement and adapt strategies as needed.E - Expand: Value family, relationships, and dreams alongside wealth building. In his book, RISE to Financial Freedom, Alex shares his journey, offers retirement literacy insights, and elaborates on his process. He emphasizes that true retirement embraces financial abundance, honoring faith, cherishing family, and achieving ultimate financial freedom.
