Sansone CPA & Financial · Crystal Lake, IL

Your taxes and
your portfolio,
working together.

Most people get financial advice in pieces — a CPA does the taxes, a financial advisor manages the investments, and decisions get made separately.

Nobody’s optimizing your whole picture — because nobody can see it. We coordinate your tax, investment, and retirement decisions together.

Where to start

Three ways to work together.

Start where it makes sense for you. You can begin with your taxes or a one-time review, and move to a full relationship whenever you want everything handled together.

Not sure which fits? That’s what the free 30-minute call is for.

Financial & Tax Advisor

Anton Prokopenko, MBA, CPA, CFP®, EA

One advisor. Every angle covered.

Most firms hand you to a CPA at tax time and a financial advisor the rest of the year. Anton holds the credentials and the responsibility for both — investments, taxes, and the planning that ties them together.

“Every investment decision has tax consequences. My job is to see both sides before we make a move.”

The process

Year-round, written down, and on your calendar.

Step 01

Discovery conversation

A 30-minute call to understand where you are: your tax situation, your investments, your retirement timeline, and what has (or hasn’t) worked with past advisors. No prep needed — just bring your questions.

Step 02

Coordinated review

We go through your past tax returns, statements, and account documents side by side. This is where your taxes, investments, and retirement plan start working together.

Step 03

Aligned strategy

You get a written plan that ties your tax decisions to your financial decisions — which accounts to draw from, whether a Roth conversion makes sense, how much to contribute, and when to sell. All in one place.

Step 04

Year-round follow-through

We don’t disappear between April and December. Quarterly check-ins, keeping your investment mix on target, tax projections, and moves made before deadlines, not after. Most clients are fully onboarded within two weeks.

Financial advisor + CPA. One firm.

Get a tax-smart opinion before major life changes turn into tax surprises.
