Who We Are

The People Behind the Process
Because your retirement deserves more than a formula.
At Strong Retirement Solutions, we lead with people, not projections. Your story shapes your strategy. Since 2008, founder Matt Augspurger has helped people move from uncertainty to clarity with strategies that reflect who they are and what they care about. Our mission is simple: to help you move from building wealth to living your legacy.
What Sets Us Apart
These are the principles that guide every conversation, every strategy, and every client relationship.
Trust: We earn it in every interaction, from the first call to every milestone you reach.
Integrity: We do what we say—every time.
Positivity: We believe consistent, strategic action creates better outcomes.
If that sounds like the kind of relationship you’ve been looking for, we’d love to connect.
