With over 25 years of experience helping thousands of people retire, Mark and his team of independent advisors at Troyer Retirement have found the path to retirement success. That path lies in the face of conventional planning norms. Mark often says, “Retirement changes everything.” As such, the traditional advice you learned with 40 years of savings, works against you in retirement. The result: devastating effects to many hard-working American retirees. Troyer Retirement seeks to solve these dilemmas using simple plans that incorporate safety, growth, legacy planning, along with tax and fee reduction.

Mark’s unconventional approach, The Retirement Trailmap, is based on math and science and helps people do three things: keep it simple, keep it safe, and retire happy. When you have a simple, safe plan, it helps you better enjoy your retirement years. That is the whole point: to retire, stay retired, and enjoy the retirement you’ve always dreamed of. Embark on the Retirement Trail Map adventure and find out how you can enjoy the pitstops along the journey… not just the destination.

It is with this unique retirement planning approach that Mark has been engaged as a national speaker, radio host, published in Forbes, and a member of the Forbes Council on Finance.

When Mark isn’t working, you can find him and his loved ones hiking the American West, enjoying the pit-stops of their journeys, eating delicious meals, and reading books in funny accents.
