  • Client Letter #5: The Opportunity Costs of Over-Saving

    Incorporating Private Assets into our strategies, Bitcoin as a portfolio hedge, the problem with not knowing how much is enough, concentrated stock positions, 1929

    Dear Friends and Client Partners,


    In this week’s Deep Dive we’ll talk about how to avoid the unintentional consequences of staying in a job for the paycheck when you already have enough to move on to something you’re more passionate about.

    But first, a quick announcement that I’m particularly excited about for Kangpan & Co. clients.

    Firm Updates

    Partnerships: Institutional Private Market Access

    We secured a partnership with a premier provider of private fund access, specifically designed for independent wealth firms. For clients who meet Accredited Investor standards, this provides a streamlined path into institutional-grade Private Credit, Private Equity, and Real Estate—asset classes that have traditionally been the domain of the world’s largest endowments and family offices. We will be discussing these options with eligible clients in the coming months to determine how private market exposure may complement your current strategy and to review the specific tradeoffs, such as illiquidity and diversification benefits.

    Research: Bitcoin as a Portfolio Hedge?

    We get lots of questions on whether Bitcoin can act as a hedge against equity volatility. Our recent analysis shows the opposite: it’s increasingly acting as a high-beta equity proxy.

    Deep Dive

    The Problem with Not Knowing How Much is Enough

    When I was getting licensed as a wealth manager, I assumed my primary value to clients would be technical: optimizing asset class returns or uncovering marginal tax savings. That’s why we use all kinds of sophisticated systems at Kangpan & Co. to model expected returns, run Monte Carlo simulations, and forecast dynamic withdrawal bands.

    However, these tools can’t answer the truly fundamental questions like:
    What are you saving for? 

    The more people I sit down with, the more I realize my most valuable work is helping clients bring clarity to their vision for their future lives. 

    Most people I meet with are saving and investing for a desirable but vaguely defined future. It’s usually “early retirement” or a “second act that is more aligned to long-term values.” 

    But the planning usually stops short of quantifiable specifics. Important details remain unanswered or only loosely defined.

    Are you going to keep living in the same high cost of living suburbs that you raised your family in? Do you want to maintain your current lifestyle or enhance it? Are you going to sell the business you’ve built or transition it to the next generation and live off its distributions? 

    You need to understand what your dream life will actually cost to live. If you don’t know what you’re specifically aiming for, you’ll have no idea if you’re even pointed in the right direction.

    Advisors often talk about the risk of not saving enough for retirement… which can be a problem. But it’s a pretty well-understood one.

    There is an equally problematic issue that’s not talked about enough: over-saving. 

    It’s very easy to get caught up in the momentum of the day-to-day and forget what your actual long-term goals for your life are. So you keep working and grinding and saving up more and more. You end up spending years longer than you needed to working in a job that you’re not passionate about that’s slowly eroding the most valuable asset you have, the rest of your life.

    You often need far less than you think to step away from what you’re doing today to start that next phase of your life. Some of my most rewarding work so far has been helping people realize they are much closer to financial independence than they imagined.

    The key to this assessment isn’t a complex investment product. It is the process of crystallizing and quantifying your goals. Once defined, we can engineer a personalized Playbook to reach—or even accelerate—that timeline. 

    This is exactly what I did for myself. I sat down in my early 30s and thought deeply about what I wanted from life and then iteratively built a personal Playbook to ensure I was able reach my goals before 40. 

    I focused on three quantifiable requirements:

    • A home Sheila and I both loved that our family could grow into with excellent K-12 public schools
    • The ability to go out to different restaurants in the area at least once a week as a family (and there is no shortage of places to try in the Philly area)
    • Going on three to four nice vacations together each year

    Beyond the numbers, I wanted a post-corporate work life defined by three types of independence:

    • Financial independence to build Kangpan & Co. intentionally, choosing only the clients I am best suited to serve
    • Schedule independence to ensure I never miss the important moments in the lives of my family and loved ones
    • Moral independence to ensure there are no conflicts of interest or compensatory arrangements that sacrifice the objectivity of the advice I provide to clients

    Making steady progress against these specific goals over the years allowed me to “retire” from a C-level role before 40. Each month I spent 30-minutes review my Playbook to ensure our costs, savings, and investments were on pace to meet these quantified goals. 

    Once I hit my target numbers, I shifted my portfolio towards an all-weather, multi-income investment strategy that would support my family’s financial needs in perpetuity. I then started the next phase of my life. 

    I increasingly think effective wealth management boils down to this:

    Envision the life you want and engineer your finances to make it a reality.

    That’s what I did for my own family and that’s what I love doing for the families I serve. This ethos is the foundation of Kangpan & Co.’s Personal Endowment framework that I’m steadily building to support our client base.

    If you aren’t a client yet but want a thought partner to help you quantify your vision for a more intentional financial future and engineer the strategies to get there, feel free to reach out.

    Food for Thought

    A collection of articles or books I’ve read that might be interesting to many of you.

    “Although continuing to hold a concentrated stock might seem like a status-quo stance, it is, in fact, one of the most risky investment strategies an investor could pursue, and it is especially problematic for those wealth creators who seek to become guardians of wealth for themselves and their families… Bessembinder (2018) shows that, during the 1926–2016 period, for all the 25,967 common stocks in the Center for Research in Securities Prices (CRSP) database, by far the most frequent one-decade buy-and-hold return is -100%.”

    • 1929 by Andrew Ross Sorkin: The first part of the book examines the build up to the crash of 1929 that led to the Great Depression. It’s a fascinating mirror of many of the same dynamics we’re seeing in markets today. I personally wasn’t a fan of the last third of the book focusing so heavily on the nuances behind the passage of the Glass-Steagall act but the entire book is highly readable for such a heavy topic.

    Thank you for the continued partnership and for the opportunity to help steer your family’s capital toward what matters most.

  • Client Letter #4: Living Off a Portfolio’s Income

    2025 Tax Planning Summaries, engineering a Personal Endowment, capital-intensive infrastructure bubbles, and a primer on income-centric investing

    Dear Friends and Client Partners,

    In this week’s deep dive I’ll be talking a bit about the income strategy I’ve used to create the cashflows that support my family. This portfolio income took the place of my C-level salary when I left the corporate world and also provides the cashflow that allows me to be intentional and measured in who I decide to work with as I build Kangpan & Co.

    A number of you have asked about or expressed interest in living off your portfolio as you think about your future so hopefully this is a helpful start. But first, a quick update on Systematic Upgrades we’ve made for our clients’ financial lives.

    Systematic Upgrades

    Focus: 2025 Tax Planning Summary

    We have finalized your 2025 Tax Planning Summaries. These reports highlight actions we took together that have tax implications that are not readily apparent on your W-2s and 1099s (e.g. 529 plan contributions, IRA funding, etc.). 

    The goal of this summary is twofold: ensuring zero “tax leakage” and reducing the administrative drag on your accounting team. Implementation is as follows:

    • Comprehensive Tax Coordination: For clients utilizing our integrated tax coordination services, we’ll be sending summaries directly to you and your CPAs. No action is required.
    • Independent Tax Services: For clients managing their own accounting flow, your summary will be securely sent over to you if you have any notable actions.

    Deep Dive

    Engineering a Personal Endowment

    As countless modern philosophers (both academic ones and the armchair variety) have pointed out, two of the hardest addictions to overcome are carbohydrates and a steady paycheck.

    The pretzels, frozen waffles, and assorted cookies that we regularly refill at the Kangpan household present no argument against the addictiveness of carbohydrates.

    Let’s talk about the monthly salary.

    I spent almost two decades in the corporate world, the latter half mostly as a C-level executive. I always had a proclivity for investing and financial planning so I was diligent over the years in contributing a fixed percentage of my salary to my family’s portfolio. This allowed me to “retire” from the corporate world before 40.

    However, the strategies that work during accumulation aren’t necessarily the same ones that should be used when switching gears to living off your portfolio.

    Low-cost, broad stock indexes with selective exposure to various factors are a great way to build your portfolio while you’re in accumulation mode. These were a core part of my strategy for building my own asset base and they form the foundation for many of Kangpan & Co.’s growth-focused clients.

    But predictability, stability, and the preservation of assets are what’s important when you are living off investments. 

    A traditional stock and bond portfolio doesn’t check those boxes as the inflationary 1970s, the 2008 GFC, the synchronized drawdown in 2022, and many other events have repeatedly shown. 

    These major shock events are incredible opportunities for buying when you have a steady wage to invest into the market. But they create significant sequence of returns risks for anyone living off their investments.

    Volatility aside, I also knew I didn’t want a strategy that involved steadily selling the assets I had accumulated. When you spend twenty years or more building up a nest egg via a steady paycheck, it is very difficult to suddenly shift into selling the family jewels to support a post W-2 life.

    This means I needed to engineer a portfolio strategy that:

    • Generates a predictable income across economic cycles
    • Grows that income steadily over time
    • Protects the underlying assets against common economic shocks

    Essentially, I developed a portfolio strategy that was modeled after how large universities manage their endowments – a Personal Endowment that provided a synthetic, growing income to replace the one I was stepping away from.

    This Personal Endowment portfolio is primarily made up of the following strategies:

    • Quality-Tilted Equity Income: Companies across a diverse set of industries and geographies that have steadily increasing cashflows, established distributions, and conservative payout and debt ratios.
    • Real Assets: Real estate and infrastructure that generate contractual revenue tied to inflation escalators. 
    • Alternative Credit: Private and senior-secured loans that are primarily floating rate in nature that help smooth the rate sensitivity of the portfolio.
    • Economic Hedges: A mix of uncorrelated assets such as managed futures, cash, gold, etc. that help shield the portfolio against major economic shocks. These form the basis of Kangpan & Co.’s Guardian strategy used across many client portfolios.

    The exact mix of these assets can vary throughout the economic cycle but I generally aim for a balanced mix of yield and yearly growth of that yield. This allows the portfolio to generate a livable, diversified income today and a steadily increasing cashflow that aims to outpace inflation over time.  

    So how’s it going?

    So far this strategy has done exactly what I wanted it to do.

    I designed this Personal Endowment style portfolio because I wanted a stochastic (random) market to support a more deterministic (predictable) life. 

    It was important to me to be able to comfortably and reliably support my family through our investment portfolio when I left Kepler. This wasn’t because I wanted to retire, but because I wanted to be measured and intentional in how I pursued my second act.

    Not needing the income from Kangpan & Co. has allowed me to to focus on working only with clients I enjoy spending time with while supporting them the way I think a full service wealth manager should. I don’t need scramble to build assets and take on clients that aren’t a fit for the firm or compromise Kangpan & Co.’s integrity by accepting commissions for products. 

    I don’t care about being the biggest wealth manager, I want to be the best for the client partners whom have entrusted their family’s future with my firm. My portfolio strategy gives me the absolute independence from outside pressures to focus on that goal.

    If you are interested in looking at the math of supporting a career pivot or retirement with a customized Personal Endowment strategy, let’s sit down and run your specific numbers together. 

    Food for Thought

    A collection of articles or books I’ve read that might be interesting to many of you.

    • The AI Debt Boom Does Not Augur Well for Investors via the FT: A reminder that capital-intensive infrastructure booms have historically had permanent, transformative effects on the broader global economy and human behavior…. but can create short to medium term investment pain if the capital cycle turns. As the FT notes:

    “History rarely rewards lenders who finance capital-intensive growth booms at their peak. In the late 1990s, telecoms companies borrowed heavily to lay fibre-optic cables, confident that data demand would ensure adequate returns. Although the infrastructure transformed the economy, it generated little return on investment for years.”

    • The Ultimate Dividend Playbook by Josh Peters: For anyone interested in learning more about income-centric investing (a least in terms of equities). This is a solid primer on assessing the quality and sustainability of payments from publicly traded firms. The appendix also provides a great series of briefings on investing in various industries like utilities, REITs, and more. I don’t agree with all the valuation methods but the book provides a strong foundation from which to expand.

    Thank you for the continued partnership and for the opportunity to help steer your family’s capital toward what matters most.

  • Leaving a C-Level Corporate Career

    I was having a conversation with a good friend (who is also a client) recently about the corporate climb and how the desire to continue up that ladder has become inversely proportional to net worth.

    Like me, my friend is a former C-level executive who has transitioned out of the corporate world. We laughed about the scene in Succession when Connor and Tom are advising Cousin Greg on the perils of a $5m net worth:

    “You can’t do anything with five, Greg. Five is a nightmare. Can’t retire. Not worth it to work. Poorest rich person person in America… The weakest strong man at the circus.”

    We put aside the question of whether five million is enough to retire on. It really depends on your lifestyle.

    The “Not worth it to work” part is what we talked about. This mid-million net worth is when many people suddenly have enough saved up to viably walk away from a corporate salary.

    And when you have enough to walk away from the corporate climb you start asking yourself a lot of questions once the kids are down and you’ve caught up on Slow Horses.

    It’s not just about running the numbers again and again to see if you have enough to step away and start that boutique consultancy or live your dream of running your own coffee shop plus wine bar.

    The biggest questions that confront you are those relating to your identity.

    If you’ve spent nearly two decades climbing a specific career ladder, it will look like an awfully long way back down when you’re ready get off. Whether you have $5m or $50m, you’ve merged a massive part of your identity with your career.

    Questions like, Who am I if I’m not the “Global Chief Information Officer” of a respected advertising agency? What if I become the person important people used to call, but no longer do? What if these are the golden years of my career and I regret stepping away when I was at the top?

    It’s these questions that prevent many people from making that much anticipated jump off the ladder.

    Instead of confronting these questions head on, you delay by telling yourself “just one more year” or “just another $200k” to be extra sure I have what I need to support my post-corporate lifestyle.

    I encountered all of these questions when I left my C-level position.

    Running the numbers over and over again was really just a proxy for the bigger questions that face anyone leaving the corporate track to start a second act.

    At the end of the day, the numbers in a spreadsheet are just a part of the decision to leave a corporate career. The real fears tie to who you are without the title. It’s the fear of the silence. It’s the realization that when you aren’t the one holding the multi-million dollar budget, the phone might stop ringing. That’s a structural shock most advisors aren’t equipped to help you navigate since they’ve never done it.

    Here were a few things that I found helpful in giving me the confidence to finally make that leap:

    • Something to run towards: If you’ve been entertaining notions of leaving the corporate world for a while, there’s a high probability you’re burnt out. You’ve likely spent years thinking about what you’re running away from—the back-to-back meetings on topics that no longer spark curiosity, the client that always seems to have urgent firedrills, etc. But if you don’t have a clear vision of what you’re running towards, then you’re just jumping into a black abyss.
    • Someone to talk to: I found it helpful to talk to other people who had made this decision. Very few people know what it’s like walking away from a C-level title and a yearly salary multiples higher than the average retiree’s nest egg. At Kangpan & Co. we’re not just building your wealth, we’re creating a close-knit community. If you’d like to talk to other former executives and senior leaders who have left the corporate world we can easily arrange that.
    • An income-centric financial strategy: When I gave my notice, I didn’t want to rely on spending down a generic 60/40 portfolio that was subject to the whims of the market. I built a specific income-centric strategy designed to replace a steady paycheck. It turned my portfolio from a static number on a screen into a functional cashflow to support my next chapter. Some of you have asked about this income strategy in various conversations so I’ll write more about this in future posts. It is, of course, available to any clients of the firm.

    I’m always happy to talk to any of you about the emotional as well as the financial side of making this kind of decision. Most advisors want to talk to you about your ‘Risk Tolerance’ for the stock market. I’d rather talk about your ‘Risk Tolerance’ for staying in a career that no longer fits the person you’ve become.

  • How We Found $3,334 in Tax Optimizations for a High-Earning NY-Based Couple

    Today’s case study is an example of how Kangpan & Co.’s growing proprietary capabilities helped uncover core tax optimizations that our clients’ previous advisor was overlooking.

    There is nothing more rewarding than providing immediate, tangible results within the first few conversations with a new partner. As the clients in this case mentioned in our latest review session:

    “It’s hilarious just how much better your approach is compared to our old advisor… He never talked to us about any of this.”

    Tax Optimizations for High Earners in NYC

    Our clients are a high-earning, married couple in their 30’s living in New York. They have a combined income in the high six figures. They came to us because they were unhappy with the advisor they were working with at the time, sensing (correctly) that their old advisor was overlooking many strategies that could help them put thousands more a year towards their financial goals.

    We started the relationship by building a comprehensive, dynamic financial plan that would help us fully understood the couple’s financial situation as well as their short, medium, and long-term goals.

    Once we had a holistic picture, we were able to focus our detailed series of diagnostics on the critical tax, planning, and investment optimizations that would help them put thousands more per year towards their goals.

    We went through our full suite of tax, investment, and planning diagnostics during the onboarding process. While we delivered value across all three of those categories, we want to use this case study just to highlight the key tax opportunities we identified:

    • Saving for College Before the Stork Arrives: The couple are planning to but do not yet have children. Like many of us, they prioritize college savings in their long-term financial goals and were planning on opening a 529 Plan once they had children. Many couples are unaware that you can open 529 Plans before your kids are born to a) get a head start on saving but also b) start taking advantage of the tax benefits now. We modeled out the tax and long-term savings impact of our clients starting their 529 this year and also helped them set up and fund their account to begin taking advantage of all the tax benefits.
    • Health, Wealth, and a Triple-Tax Advantage: One of the clients has had an HSA for years into which their employer has been contributing $1,000 a year. However, the client had not been adding any additional funds since they felt they were young and healthy and had no need for putting funds into the HSA. We walked through the triple-tax advantages of HSAs and discussed how HSAs can function like an additional retirement account once they turned 65… when the funds could be tapped penalty-free for non-healthcare spending.
    • Maximizing Charitable Giving By Waiting for the New Year: Our clients donate to several charities each year. While the amounts are generous, they are not high enough for our clients to itemize. However, in 2026, the OBBBA tax changes will allow couples filing jointly to deduct up to $2,000 in qualified charitable cash donations, even if they take the standard deduction. Based on this change, we advised our clients to wait until at least Jan 1, 2026 to make some of their planned donations to take advantage of this new deduction policy.
    • Continuous Tax-Loss Harvesting: We identified and realized multiple tax-loss harvesting opportunities as we migrated the clients’ portfolios towards our recommended allocations. While many advisors only look at tax-loss harvesting once a year (if that), we implement it year round to continuously capture opportunities as they present themselves.

    These four optimizations alone added up to more than $3,334 in additional after-tax income that our clients will be able to build year after year. Note: this couple has graciously offered to serve as a reference for any of you reading this who are not yet clients.

  • Client Letter #1: Supporting Financial Literacy and Three Year-End Tax Optimizations

    Thank you for a wonderful 2025; why we donate to support financial literacy; three tax optimizations you should complete before the end of the year.

    To Our Friends and Valued Client Partners,

    I hope you get the chance to slow down and enjoy the holiday season with your loved ones as the year winds down.

    The close of the year is as good a time as any to kick off an official client newsletter. Moving forward, I’ll send these letters to keep you up to date on strategies and capabilities we’re developing between our planning sessions. I also hope these help serve as a valuable knowledge repository for future clients to learn about how we approach the financial world.

    This inaugural letter contains just two main topics:

    1. We Will Donate 5% of 2025 Profits to Philadelphia Financial Scholars
    2. Three Pre-End of Year Tax Optimizations to Keep In Mind

    I’ve loved working with each of you this year as we identify, optimize, and implement strategies aligned to your unique financial goals. Thank you for the wonderful partnership this year and I look forward to many more together.

    Happy Holidays from our family to yours,

    Nathan

    Topic #1: We Will Donate 5% of 2025 Profits to Philadelphia Financial Scholars

    Like many of you, I value education and want to support fair and equal access to quality programs. I have decided to focus specifically on supporting Financial Literacy because:

    • A basic understanding of personal financial management early on can change the entire course of someone’s life
    • Financial literacy is not part of the national education curriculum so it’s a topic that is widely misunderstood, particularly among underserved communities
    • As a wealth manager, financial literacy is a personal passion of mine (as any of you who have seen me excitedly pull up a chart or diagram in the middle of a meeting probably know all too well)

    Kangpan & Co. will donate 5% of 2025 profits to Philadelphia Financial Scholars, a “charitable organization that partners with schools to give students and families knowledge and confidence to achieve lasting financial empowerment.” Note, we do not have any formal affiliation with PFS at this time, we just like their mission.

    Topic #2: Three Pre-End-of-Year Tax Optimizations

    We’ve covered these strategies with most of you in your recent planning reviews, but just as a reminder, here are a few key tax planning strategies to be aware of as the year comes to a close:

    • 529 Plan Contributions: Most of you have until December 31 to make any tax-deductible contributions to your plans for calendar year 2025. We’ve discussed the tax benefits each of you qualifies for and have worked with many of you to complete your contributions for the year already. Reach out to us if you want to make any last minute updates or changes to your strategy.
    • Charitable Giving: OBBBA changes to the tax code next year allow for up to $2,000 in qualified charitable cash donations in 2026 to be deducted from your taxes, even if you are taking the standard deduction. That means it could be tax-beneficial for some of you to wait until Jan 1st for your holiday season cash donations. I’m sure many of you agree with us that Charitable Giving shouldn’t just be about the tax savings, but taking advantage of this tax benefit means you will be increasing your giving power to the causes you care about.
      • We also wrote a piece earlier in the year on our blog about advanced charitable giving via donating appreciated stock that you can check out here
    • Tax-Loss Harvesting: We continuously manage, and then report on tax-loss harvesting throughout the year for any accounts we directly manage for you. This is just a reminder for those of you with any accounts we don’t directly oversee to complete your tax-loss harvesting before the end of the year. Reach out to us if you want help or guidance with this.
