The "Just a Number" Problem
Your retirement is personal. Your planner should be too.
Most families don't leave their advisor over performance — they leave because the calls stopped coming, the reviews turned into templates, and the "personalized service" from the sales pitch quietly became an 800-number. My IRA Hero is built around the opposite promise.
"I feel like I'm just a number. Is it too much to ask my financial adviser for portfolio reviews at least twice a year?"— MarketWatch reader
Annual, Bi-Annual or Quarterly Reviews — In Writing
Portfolio and plan reviews scheduled based on your goals and progress — booked before the current meeting concludes, not "when we get around to it." You'll see the calendar invites the day you onboard.
A Capped Client Roster
Your planner limits how many families they take on, so you're never account #847 on a spreadsheet. If we can't give you real attention, we tell you before you sign.
48-Hour Response Promise
Every call and email answered by your planner — not an assistant, not a queue — within two business days.
Independent & Consumer-First
No captive-shop quotas. Every annuity recommendation follows a documented best-interest process, aligned to your life, values, and worries — not to this quarter's product push.

What families are saying
Real conversations. Real follow-through.
“myIRAHero.com connected me with a retirement advisor who took the time to understand my situation and explain the specific options that can help me achieve my return goals. They also helped me withdraw some funds in the process to pay some of my immediate bills.”
“The amount of money I saved in unnecessary advisor fees with the solutions that the advisor myIRAHero.com referred me to completely shocked me. I recommend myIRAHero.com to anyone who ever put money into a 401(k) and needs real solutions to take care of their retirement plan and their family.”
“myIRAHero.com connected me with an advisor who explained everything clearly and answered my questions about the best ways to take care of the medical expenses that my medical condition requires and that Medicare will not cover. I’m so thankful that I found this website.”
“When I found myIRAHero.com through Google search, I wasn’t sure what types of options I would find.

I’m so lucky that I found my retirement Hero through this website myirahero.com.”
“I was able to get an estate plan with a Will and trust along with life insurance and guaranteed growth on my IRA with the help of the advisor that myirahero.com connected me with. Thank you, thank you, thank you myIRAHero.com.”
“myIRAHero.com matched me with an advisor who walked me through every rollover option for my old 401(k). I finally understood the tax implications and picked a strategy that gives me steady monthly income without the guesswork.”

“The advisor myIRAHero.com referred me to helped me decide exactly when to claim Social Security so my wife and I get the most out of what we’ve earned. That one conversation will likely mean thousands more dollars over our lifetime.”

Fixed Fixed Indexed Variable
Not sure which type of annuity fits your situation?
We break down the three types of annuities side by side — how each one grows, what it protects, and what it actually costs — plus 10 obvious reasons an annuity may (or may not) belong in your plan.
Informative read
Why a fixed index annuity can be a powerful addition to a retirement plan
Retirement is about more than maximizing returns. This plain-English guide explains how one portion of a portfolio can be assigned a different job — protection from index losses, index-linked growth potential, and lifetime income you can't outlive — plus the risks, the mortality-pooling math, and when an FIA is the wrong fit.

We only refer you to Retirement Experts who are obligated to act as a fiduciary at all times — legally bound to put your interests ahead of their own on every single recommendation they make to you.
Every Expert we refer must also be willing to give you a written Fiduciary Pledge — a signed legal statement confirming that duty to you in writing. If an Expert will not put it in writing, we will not refer you to them. Just ask for it on your call.
