You've done well.
Now the decisions matter more.
Sid Misra
Certified Financial Planner™
Whether you’re approaching retirement or building wealth at a high level, financial decisions become more permanent and more interconnected over time.
I design coordinated financial plans that guide those important decisions before they compound.
Because once income turns into retirement, or equity turns into concentration, the stakes change.
Practical thinking around real financial decisions
If You're Approaching Retirement
For years, retirement was something you were working toward. Now, it's close enough to feel real.
You've done what you were supposed to do. You saved. You invested. You stayed disciplined. But when the paycheck stops, the rules change. The questions become more consequential.
Can you actually retire and stay retired?
How do you turn what you have built into reliable income? What tax decisions made today could quietly cost you later?
On paper, you may be fine. But, that's what makes blind spots harder to see. This is no longer about growing wealth. It's about shifting from accumulation to distribution, where income, taxes, risk, and timing must work together inside a coordinated plan.
These decisions don't easily unwind. As retirement moves from distant idea to near-term reality, your plan should be strong enough to guide each step before it becomes permanent.
If You're a Busy Professional Building Wealth
You've built a career that is paying off. The promotions came. Your income increased. Equity compensation became part of the picture. From the outside, it looks like you're on track.
Inside, though, it can feel loosely connected. Investments here. Benefits there. Taxes handled once a year. Decisions made quickly because life is not slowing down. At some point you have likely wondered whether you're truly on track or simply moving fast.
The real risk isn't failure. It's quiet misalignment that compounds while your attention is somewhere else. Income growth can mask gaps. Momentum can hide inefficiencies.
You don't need more information. You need coordination. A plan that connects equity, taxes, investments, insurance, and long term goals so that each decision strengthens the others.
If the next round of decisions is already forming, your plan should be designed to support them before they become permanent.
Who is Sid Misra
My name is Sid Misra, and I am a Certified Financial Planner™ with Beacon Financial Group in Warren, NJ.
I work with individuals and couples across the country who want a strong, coordinated plan driving their financial decisions, especially as they approach retirement or face choices they don’t want to get wrong.
Many of the people I work with have already done a lot of the right things. They’ve saved, invested, and been financially responsible.
They don't want more information.
They want to know their investments, taxes, income strategy, and risk decisions are aligned; shaped by a coordinated plan, not just guesswork.
“Why and What” is MPowered Finance
I believe financial decisions shouldn’t rely on guesswork, headlines, or assumptions. They should be shaped by a coordinated plan that connects the moving parts.
MPowered Finance is where I evaluate the decisions people face, including retirement transitions, income strategy, tax tradeoffs, equity compensation, and how those decisions fit within a larger structure.
It’s my education and communication platform, created to share perspective and walk through the tradeoffs that matter before choices become permanent.

Let’s talk things through
If you’re approaching retirement or facing a financial decision you don’t want to get wrong, having a second set of eyes can make a real difference.
The first step is simply a conversation. It’s a chance to talk through what you’re thinking about, what feels uncertain, and whether working together makes sense.
If that sounds helpful, feel free to send me a message. I’m always happy to be a resource or a sounding board.
