Top Pension Planning Experts 2025

My goal is to assist clients/investors in their quest for financial freedom and creating generational wealth through one on one consultation and an abundance of online tools to educate. For the past 6 years I have been a private pension plan consultant with Self Directed Retirement Plans working directly with my partner Rick Pendykoski (owner). Through the years I have travelled across the United States speaking to tens of thousands of people at a vast amount of REI and general investment groups. I have personally supported thousands of clients with self-directing their retirement accounts. As a result, they have achieved true investing freedom to invest in what they want, when they want with 100% checkbook control.

I'm passionate about helping families build generational wealth through strategic retirement planning. As a retirement income strategist, I specialize in self-directed retirement solutions that give people more control over their financial future. My approach is pretty straightforward - I believe everyone deserves access to the financial strategies that the wealthy have been using for generations. I focus on showing clients how to leverage their existing assets, whether that's an old 401(k), home equity, or other resources, to create multiple streams of retirement income. What really drives me is seeing families break free from traditional financial limitations. I love educating people about options they didn't even know existed, like self-directed 401(k)s and velocity banking strategies. It's amazing to watch someone's eyes light up when they realize they have more control over their financial destiny than they thought. I take pride in sitting on the same side of the table as my clients - their success is my success. Whether we're mapping out a debt elimination strategy or creating a retirement income plan, my goal is to empower people with the knowledge and tools they need to build lasting wealth.

Filip is a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ with almost two decades of financial services experience. He started his career in the retail banking environment - first as a bank teller in high school before moving on to a banker role at JP Morgan Chase after graduating college. In this capacity, Filip educated and assisted a diverse mix of personal and business clients with core financial needs including banking, investments and lending. After, he transitioned to UBS and developed a strong foundation around investment research early on and comprehensive planning later, acquiring his CFP® in 2017. With this base, Filip then moved to TIAA to work with mostly late career accumulators, pre-retirees and retirees. This is where his passion for holistic planning really took off and led him to Facet, where he was able to apply his experience and knowledge to everyone at different stages of life. Additionally, he became an expert in strategizing around niche components of planning like equity compensation, employee benefits and more. Fast forward to the current day, Filip owns and operates Benzina (an independent RIA) where he can focus his diverse skill set, perfectionist nature and all resources on creating a high quality, detailed financial plan for mid-career professionals. Growing up in New York, Filip now considers the Gulf Coast of Florida his home base alongside his wife, Stephanie and their cat, Olivia (who really runs the household). Their values include spending time with family (even if it means a quick turnaround flight to NY), traveling to gain exposure to different cultures around the world, and staying active (with hiking and skiing at the top of the list). Daily free time is occupied with reading, listening to a podcast, hitting the gym or going on a long drive together.
