Let’s say hello to Evan Pawloski, AIF®. Here’s how Evan describes what he does: “I create World-Class 401(k) Plans for employers who want to hire and retain the Hardest-Working Men and Women in Michigan. Every employee deserves a path to become a Millionaire, and my team and I coach 401(k) participants to this goal every day.” On this episode of The Active Advisor podcast, host Bryan Moore chats with Evan Pawloski, AIF®, Senior Partner and Plan Advisor at Michigan 401(k) Advisors. Join them as they discuss the importance of selecting the right 401(k) advisor and the challenges companies face when they don't put in the work upfront. Evan emphasizes the importance of focusing on the basics and doing the necessary work to ensure the success of retirement plans. Evan shares his career journey and highlights the need for advisors to specialize in either 401(k) plans or wealth management. The conversation also touches on factors to consider when selecting a 401(k) advisor, such as investment and education policy statements. Evan predicts a shift towards more automation in the retirement space but believes the human element will always be necessary.
