Helping people make important life choices...
Trust. Simplicity. Honor. Integrity. Respect.
Fee-only — no commissions — Fiduciary responsibility to you

Pauley Financial Services is a financial advisor that provides Fee-Only™, fiduciary, financial planning and investment management services in our new Flower Mound, Texas office in addition to our established office in Austin, Texas.

Acting as a fiduciary, we will partner with you to educate and guide you, as well as implement financial strategies that will enable you to achieve your goals with the least amount of risk possible. As a Fee-Only™ advisor, we are your advocates working only for you, with no conflicts of interest associated with commissions, bonuses or hidden fees as we do not accept them. Nationally, affluent individuals and families have relied on our firm for wealth management planning and portfolio management for years because we understand that each client's needs and situation are unique to them.

Our number one goal is to guide you in achieving your best overall life possible — not only return a return on your financial investments. Tying your goals and dreams together wtih your finances is where our value proposition begins.

We believe the value proposition of most other advisors is unsustainable and must change. To promise a consistent, long-term, above-average return is simply a promise that cannot be kept. To replace it, we offer a "Return on Life"™ (www.mitchanthony.com) value proposition — which is attainable.

We promise to help you get the most out of life that you can given the resources you have. These resources include your financial assets, of course, but also your earning potential (human capital), your social network, your health, etc.

To deliver on this promise, we work hard to know what matters most to our clients, understand the key transitions in their lives and advise them on important life decisions.

No one can accurately predict the future, and we don't pretend to be able to. We do help you control all that you can in order to achieve your goals. By applying a disciplined, balanced, tactical asset allocation strategy (and adhering to it), we help our clients remove emotionally based reactions to the market. Our goals-based approach enables us to construct a customized asset allocation for each client's long-term portfolio, taking on the least amont of risk necessary for goal achievement. Tactically, we utilize diversified, cost and tax efficient exchange-traded funds as our primary implementation tool. And, we adhere to a disciplined rebalancing process that not only forces us to "buy low, sell high," but also reduces portfolio risk.

Five Star Professional, as a third-party research firm, administered a survey, by mail and phone, to 1 in 4 high-net-worth households (over 108,000 consumers) and registered financial services representatives (over 7,500 financial services professionals) to evaluate the approximately 14,000 wealth managers in the Houston Region (includes Atascosa, Bandera, Bexar, Comal, DeWitt, Dimmitt, Edwards, Frio, Goliad, Gonzales, Guadalupe, Karnes, Kendall, Kerr, Kinney, La Salle, Lavaca, McMullen, Maverick, Medina, Real, Uvalde, Val Verde, Wilson, Zavala, Bastrop, Blanco, Burnet, Caldwell, Fayette, Gillespie, Hays, Lee, Llano, Mason, Travis and Williamson counties in the state of Texas). The evaluation was based on nine criteria, including customer service, integrity, knowledge/expertise, communication, value for fee charged, meeting of financial objectives, post sale service, quality of recommendations, and overall satisfaction. After review by a panel of local industry experts and a review of regulatory history, Five Star Professional determined the final list of 2011 Five Star Wealth Managers scoring highest in overall satisfaction and representing less than 7% of the wealth managers in the Houston Region.
• Five Star Wealth Managers do not pay a fee to be included in the research or the final list of Five Star Wealth Managers.
• Only wealth managers with more than five years of experience in the financial services industry are considered.
• The overall evaluation score of a wealth manager reflects an average of all respondents and may not be representative of any one client's experience.
• The Five Star award is not indicative of the wealth manager's future performance.
• Wealth managers may or may not use discretion in their practice and therefore may not manage their client's assets.
• The inclusion of a wealth manager on the Five Star Wealth Manager list should not be construed as an endorsement of the wealth manager by Five Star Professional or Texas Monthly (Austin, San Antonio and Central Texas Region).
• Please keep in mind that working with a Five Star Wealth Manager is no guarantee as to the future investment success nor is there any guarantee that the selected wealth managers will be awarded this accomplishment in the future.
