For over 30 years Charles “Bud” Bruton has been advising business owners and individuals on a wide range of financial matters including retirement planning, employee benefit plans, and business insurance assessment. His firm also provides retirement asset and personal wealth management services.

Long ago, Bud realized that most business executives are so busy with operational issues that there’s little time left for them to deal with some of the long term personal and business financial planning issues. We all may think about some of the issues, but few of us take the time to find answers to questions like: 

• Is my benefit plan attractive enough as well as cost effective enough?

•  Am I saving adequately for my retirement?

• What should I be doing about college tuition?

• Are there financial advantages in my business that I’m not seeing?

• What should I be doing to retain my key employees?

That’s Bud’s job – and with the help of three of his sons, Bruton Financial Partners tackles these issues for individuals and for companies of all sizes.

Following college and a decorated military career (earning the Distinguished Flying Cross, Air Medal with 19 Oak Leaf Clusters and a Bronze Star in Vietnam), Bud returned to the Brandywine Valley where he’s made it his business to improve life for everyone through social service and through his company. Bud is proud of the fact that he’s helped some local businesses plan from inception and grow from a handful of employees to thousands.

Bud credits his success with his ability to listen and develop a sense of your needs – he’s not there to sell you products – he’s your advisor. His goal is to help an individual accumulate assets toward retirement and then help preserve and manage those assets through retirement. Frequently, relationships with individual men and women form after a life changing event like divorce or death of a spouse. Suddenly there are new financial issues to deal with. Bud helps you navigate safe passage through unknown waters.

Often, individuals who experience Bud’s high level of service, bring their corporate business to Bruton Financial Partners.

With sons, Jamie, Josh, and Benjamin, they can develop, implement and monitor corporate retirement plans and provide personal financial solutions for executives, business owners and their employees.

Members of BottomLine Partners are invited to call Bud, Jamie, Josh or Ben at 610 518-3900. You can call to receive general information or for help on a specific personal or business issue. For example, they can help you develop a qualified retirement plan to help retain key employees. Once it’s rolled out, they’ll help monitor and administer the plan offering excellent service to your employees. The Bruton family is proud of the personal service they deliver to their clients whether it for the business owner or an employee calling about their 401K.  When you call, be sure to notice that the phone is answered by a real person – not by voice mail.
