Flat Monthly Rate

No commissions. No AUM fees. One transparent price.

A Real Advisor

Work directly with Derek, not an algorithm or call center.

Private Dashboard

Your own portal to track goals, net worth, and your plan.

Built Around You

A written plan tailored to your goals, updated every meeting.

Financial discipline is built the same way athletic performance is.

Derek Leicht is a University of Iowa track athlete and Finance & Business Analytics student. The habits that build progress on the track: consistency, a clear plan, and honest check-ins. That's the foundation of how LFA works.

LFA isn't about market timing or short-term bets. It's about building a plan you can actually follow, one that gets stronger over time.

Understand exactly where you stand and where you're headed. At any income level, any stage of life.

How LFA Works

Step 01

Book a Free Consultation

A 30-minute call, no commitment. We'll talk through your situation and find the right tier for where you are right now.

Step 02

Build Your Financial Plan

Complete a structured questionnaire before your first meeting. Your advisor arrives prepared to discuss strategy, not collect information.

Step 03

Stay on Track Year-Round

Log in to your private financial dashboard, track your goals, and monitor your financial health score. Derek sends a personal letter every month — and updates your dashboard after every meeting.

A plan for every stage of life.

Traditional CFP advisors charge $200–$400/hr. LFA memberships start at $75/month with portal access, goal tracking, and planning meetings included. Founding member rates from $50/month for the first 50 clients.

Founding Client Rates

Lock in half the price.
Hold it for 18 months.

LFA is offering founding member rates to our first 50 clients. Founding members lock in their reduced rate for 18 months from the date they join. After 18 months rates move to standard pricing with 60 days notice. Once 50 founding spots are filled, standard pricing applies to all new clients.

Founding clients get direct input into how the platform evolves, Derek's undivided attention as LFA grows, and rates that reflect the early-access opportunity. You'll receive 60 days written notice before any rate change — you'll never wake up to a surprise increase.
