Helping Create Successful Outcomes Through Market Cycles

Wealth Team

Elizabeth C. Donner, CRPC TM, Founder and President

Beth Donner is President of Diversified Retirement and Wealth, a full- spectrum financial services firm that takes pride in helping investors gain confidence and predictability in their financial goals.

Upon obtaining a Bachelor of Science degree from University of North Carolina at Charlotte, Beth began her career in the healthcare industry, but after several years she felt a calling to help people in a different way because she had witnessed many times over how the lack of monetary, insurance and legacy planning could lead to unpleasant and unwelcomed consequences.

In 1995 Beth made a life-changing decision to enter the financial services industry and she never looked back! After obtaining Securities licenses 6, 63 and 65, Beth proceeded to obtain the designation of Chartered Retirement Planning Counselor/ CRPC TM in 2009. Beginning her professional career in healthcare has also given Beth a unique ability to counsel clients on the two biggest financial risks in retirement – clients outliving their money and knowing how to best prepare for out-of-control healthcare costs.

Beth understands there’s few things in life that has a more personal and emotional attachment to it, than our money. She strives to help clients and their families make wise, calculated decisions taking into consideration the topics of Inflation, Liquidity, Market Cycles, Mortality, Longevity, Taxes, Risk Analysis and Legacy Planning. Such detailed real-life considerations, combined with 30 years of experience, yields personalized financial plans where a client can walk away afterwards; feeling the confidence and security in their future that they have longed for!

Beth has been married to her husband, Patrick for 30+ years, and she has two adult sons, Brandon and PJ. She also has a furry grand-baby, Diggy, a rescued 90 pound, cuddle-bear pit bull, that rarely leaves her side when she’s at home. Faith, family and friends are the most important parts of Beth’s life and she loves devoting time to each of these every day.
