Ed Kerns

FOOTLAMP FINANCIAL, a fee-only financial advisory firm based in Opelika, Alabama and Atlanta, Georgia, provides retirement planning and investment management to clients for a flat fee.

My name is Ed Kerns, CFP®, and I built FOOTLAMP FINANCIAL around everything I believe about serving clients in a transparent, competent, and trustworthy way.

Life is full of transitions. Retirement is complex. Financially, the stakes are high. I find great enjoyment and purpose in guiding clients to make smart decisions with their money for reasons that are important to them.

My fee structure, planning approach, and investment philosophy are designed and implemented with your retirement in mind. Above all, I believe my job is to listen and help you design a plan where your money can be a tool for living a meaningful life.
