Geralt Riviera (45 yrs old) has recently separated from his wife Yennifer Venerberger (46 yrs old). Although the split was mutual and neither party will pay alimony to the other, they do share custody and responsibility of their adopted daughter Ciri (12 yrs old). On top of that, Ciri’s biological grandmother has left a vast fortune to her that is to be held and managed by Geralt and Yennifer until her 18th birthday. Up until her birthday, the portfolio proceeds are used to pay for Geralt and Yennifer’s living expenses as well as any care or education needs for Ciri until she takes over the portfolio. Any excess returns are to be returned to the portfolio to grow. The portfolio stands at $73,650,000 and is currently invested in 30 yr Treasuries which yield 2.09%.

Mr. Riviera approaches you about the situation, seeking financial advice. He elaborates on the situation, mentioning that he works in the bounty hunter industry. His income is not steady, but on average is steady and grows at about 2% greater than inflation. This past year he earned $302,000 approximately and expects next year to remain in line with normal growth. Yennefer is an active officer in the military and earned approximately $315,000 last year. Her pay grows at the rate of inflation and she is entitled to full retirement benefits which are projected to cover her costs indefinitely after she turns 55.

Prior to their separation this past year, Yennifer and Geralt’s joint costs were approximately $395,000, allocated evenly between the two and growing at the rate of inflation. Ciri’s schooling and expenses were an additional $120,000 also growing at the same rate. I have approximately

$765,000 in personal savings and Yennifer has approximately $892,000. Neither of us have invested the money.

As an advisor, you believe it is prudent to conduct an interview to better understand Geralt’s goals as well as his risk/return profile. The following are excerpts from that interview:

• “I am in great physical health for my age and do not foresee myself retiring for at least another 20-30 years”

• “My job tends to be dangerous and full of risks which makes the job enjoyable”

• “Aside from retirement, I don’t foresee any other major expenses one Ciri takes over her portfolio as that should take care of everything”

• “According to my last tax returns, my current income tax rate is 28.5% while capital gains is at 25%. Jennifer's was 32% and 25% respectively. I believe inflation was roughly 4% last year.”

• “I tend to assess my situation and study it, but I am action oriented.

Determine what type of investor Mr. Riviera may be and determine his willingness and ability to tolerate risk, his overall risk tolerance.
