    Jul 8 2026

    Aerospace Employees (Lockheed Martin): You may be leaving 10% free money on the table. Between automatic 6% contribution and the 50% match on your first 8%, the salary savings plan pays you to show up — and most employees never max it.

    Mike Allen, CFP® and Mitch Allen, CFP® of Security Financial Management break down the 6% + 4% math, why your emergency fund comes first, the Roth "tax insurance" move, RSU over-concentration, and the acronyms (NQSSP, SSP, DMICP, NUA) that actually matter. 📌 Schedule a consultation with our award-winning team: https://go.oncehub.com/SecurityFinancialManagement

  • Estate Planning for Aerospace Employees: Why Your Professionals Must Talk
    Jul 22 2026

    A CPA, estate-planning attorney, insurance professional, and financial advisor may all be working for you—but are they actually talking to one another?

    In this episode, Michael Allen, CFP®, and Mitchell Allen, CFP®, explain why professional coordination is critical for aerospace employees and their families.

    Using real client examples, they show what can happen when financial professionals fail to communicate—and how proper coordination can connect your:

    • Estate plan and trusts • Beneficiaries and life insurance • Pension and Social Security • Taxes and investment accounts • RSUs and company benefits • Family and professional team

    For Lockheed Martin and other aerospace employees, having multiple specialists is not enough. They must understand the complete financial picture and work together before a major life event occurs.
