Do you take clients from Morristown even though you're in Johnson City?

Yes. We serve families throughout the region, including Hamblen County. Many Morristown clients appreciate having an advisor who isn't tied to a local bank or insurance agency. We offer both in-person and virtual meetings to make it convenient.

Can you help with retirement planning for manufacturing workers?

Manufacturing professionals often have 401(k) plans with employer matches, pension considerations, and the possibility of early retirement or workforce changes. We help you evaluate your options, maximize your benefits, and build a plan that accounts for the realities of your industry.

What if I have back taxes or unfiled returns?

As an Enrolled Agent, David Talley is authorized to represent you before the IRS. We can help you get caught up on unfiled returns, negotiate payment plans, and work toward resolving your situation — often more effectively than trying to handle it on your own.

How is fee-only different from fee-based?

'Fee-only' means we are compensated solely by our clients — no commissions, no referral fees, no product sales. 'Fee-based' advisors may charge fees but can also earn commissions, which creates potential conflicts of interest. Talley Wealth is fee-only.

Why Work With a Local Financial Advisor?

Morristown is the economic center of Hamblen County, with a diverse mix of manufacturing, healthcare, and agriculture. It's far enough from Johnson City that many families feel underserved by Tri-Cities advisors — but close enough that Talley Wealth can provide the same hands-on, relationship-driven planning we offer our Tri-Cities clients. If you're in Morristown and want a real financial plan, not a product pitch, we'd love to talk.

Hypothetical Scenario

A Morristown Healthcare Professional Approaching Medicare

The Situation

A healthcare administrator at Morristown-Hamblen Healthcare is 63 and planning to retire at 65. They're covered by employer health insurance and are unsure how to bridge the gap to Medicare, whether to take Social Security early, and how to draw down their 401(k) without jumping into a higher tax bracket.

How We Might Approach This

We might start by mapping out the healthcare bridge — evaluating COBRA, marketplace plans, and health-sharing options for the gap between employer coverage and Medicare at 65. Then we'd model Social Security claiming at 62, 65, and 67 to show the long-term income difference, and create a tax-efficient withdrawal strategy that coordinates 401(k) distributions with Roth conversions during the lower-income transition years.

This is a hypothetical example for illustrative purposes only. Individual results vary. Talley Wealth Management does not guarantee any specific outcomes.
