Background & Family Life

Natalie grew up in Western New York and misses the Buffalo wings, but not the Buffalo snow. Though she’s left behind the snow, she’s carried with her the warmth of her upbringing and the values instilled in her by her roots. But Natalie does not feel it’s just the memories of buffalo wings and snowy days that define her—it is also her commitment to family, her 22+ years of service to her clients, and her experience with life transitions that she believes make her a more compassionate and loyal professional.

She and her husband have five children, elementary through college age, who fill their home with laughter, school projects, sporting events, and music. Natalie demonstrates her commitment to ethical professionalism through her volunteer work as a Hearing Panel Volunteer for the CFP® Disciplinary and Ethics Commission and her affiliation with the Texas Bar Association.

“Natalie Chandler is a dedicated retirement planner whose work ethic is unsurpassed. Her unwavering commitment to RPOA clients is evidenced by the heartfelt empathy she demonstrates as she helps them navigate each phase of their retirement journey. Natalie can always be counted on to have the answers to the most complex questions, and her loyalty to her profession is just exceptional.”

– Doug Dyer

RPOA Founding Partner and Senior Retirement Planner

Business Philosophy

Drawing inspiration from Ayn Rand’s words, “I can accept anything, except what seems to be the easiest for most people: the half-way, the almost, the just-about, the in-between,” Natalie says she refuses to settle for anything less than extraordinary, both in her personal life and her professional endeavors. But it’s not just about numbers and financial strategies for Natalie. For her, it’s about guiding her clients through significant life transitions with a blend of diligent research, compassion, and collaboration. To her, the road to retirement is not just a destination but a journey filled with incremental steps, and her goal is to walk alongside her clients every step of the way. Natalie often tells her clients, “My job is to worry for you, and guide you through the process.”

RPOA Advisors, Inc. (d/b/a Retirement Planners of America ) (“Retirement Planners of America”, “RPOA”) is an SEC registered investment adviser with a primary business location in Plano, Texas. Registration as an investment adviser is not an endorsement by securities regulators and does not imply that Retirement Planners of America has attained a certain level of skill, training, or ability. The “Invest and Protect Strategy” (the “Strategy”) refers to a strategy that Retirement Planners of America fundamentally employs for its clients. Retirement Planners of America previously employed a similar strategy that it referred to as the “buy, hold, and sell” strategy or “buy hold, and protect” strategy. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Therefore, current or prospective clients should not assume that the future performance of the Strategy, any specific investment, or any other investment strategy that Retirement Planners of America recommends will be profitable or equal to past performance levels. All investment strategies have the potential for profit or loss. References to recommendations made under the Strategy that predate 2011; and statements such as and similar to: “we told our clients to be out of the market in 2007 and 2008,” “we told our clients to get back into the market in 2009,” and “clients that followed our advice were out of the market in 2008;” refer to strategies collectively employed and recommendations collectively made by Retirement Planners of America’s principals while employed at Eagle Strategies, LLC., and also at Cambridge Investment Research Advisors, Inc. Three of the five principals remain as principals today, including the Retirement Planners of America’s founder, Ken Moraif. Retirement Planners of America has been employing the Strategy since its inception in 2011. Therefore, any references to Retirement Planners of America’s performance or its investment advisory recommendations predating 2011 generally refer to recommendations made by Retirement Planners of America’s principals at the respective other firms described above. Like all investment strategies, the Strategy is not guaranteed. It is possible that it can incorrectly predict a bear market (generally accepted as a 20% drop in a market index), which has, in-fact, happened before at Retirement Planners of America and affected its clients accordingly. When the sell / “protect” portion of the Strategy is implemented, affected investors will incur transaction costs and taxable accounts will incur tax consequences. However, when implementing that portion of the Strategy, Retirement Planners of America believes that the benefit of avoiding bear markets outweighs the burden of these transaction costs and tax consequences. Retirement Planners of America is not an accounting firm or a law firm.
