As financial advisors in Charlotte NC, Clear Income Strategies Group is proud to call North Carolina home. North Carolina became the 12th state in 1789, just after America declared its independence, and it was one of the original colonies which ratified the Constitution. It became known as the “Tar Heel State” because historically, residents used to sell tar and pitch made from the state’s longleaf pine trees to the sailing/ship industry where it was used to make wooden ships waterproof.
Famous for its beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains and its nearly 300 miles of coastline along the “Outer Banks,” North Carolina is also famous for its vinegar-based barbecue, and the fact that the Wright Brothers made their first flight at Kitty Hawk Beach in North Carolina in 1903. It’s a little-known fact that the carnivorous plant known as the Venus fly trap grows in the wild in a 60-mile region surrounding Wilmington, North Carolina. High in physical reality as well as tourist and resident admiration, Mount Mitchell in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina is the highest point east of the Mississippi River in the United States at 6,684 feet above sea level.

Emergency Scenario
— Jane & Joe
After Jane and Joe were involved in a car accident, they reached out to us from the side of the road — overwhelmed, shaken, and facing unexpected expenses. Because we knew their situation and long-term plan, we were able to respond immediately and guide them toward the most appropriate source of funds without disrupting their broader financial strategy.
Moments like these remind us that planning isn’t just about numbers. It’s about partnership, trust, and being there when our clients need steady guidance the most.
Loss & Family Support
— Ellen & Family
When Ellen called us after her husband passed away, she was grieving, overwhelmed, and trying to make sense of what came next for her family. She and the kids were aware of some of the accounts they held, but navigating the paperwork and next steps felt impossible in such a painful moment. Because we had walked alongside their family for years, we were able to step in immediately—bringing clarity to what needed to be done and guiding them through each form, each transition, and each decision at a pace that felt manageable. We miss Jim deeply. And just as we did when he was with us, we continue to support his family with the same care, patience, and steady guidance they’ve always trusted.
