Our Team
SRG Financial Advisors specializes in pursuing the needs of successful families and top-of-their-field professionals who, among other things, aspire to a work-optional lifestyle and have the desire to secure their investment legacy.
Our experience acquired over decades in business constantly reminds us of the fluid and dynamic nature of the journey to financial independence. With this philosophy in mind, we use our process, The Mile Marker FORMula, to craft individual plans for each of our clients, allowing them to have increased confidence as their lives unfold and their needs evolve.
We are an independent firm which means we don't have an ax to grind. It also means we have access to investment products and insurance companies from all over the nation so we can offer recommendations that are in our clients' best interests, not a one-size-fits-all approach that can sometimes happen with a captive financial advisor.
Meet Our Team
William LaCasse, ChFC®
Founder, CEO and Managing Partner
(816) 641-2550
bill@srgfinancialadvisors.com
William J. “Bill” LaCasse, ChFC®, is Founder and CEO of SRG Financial Advisors in Osage Beach, Missouri, where he leads a team dedicated to life-centered financial planning for successful families and professionals. Since 1990, Bill has helped clients in multiple states design coordinated retirement income and tax-efficient strategies that align their investments, risk management, legacy planning, cash flow, and charitable giving.
As CEO, Bill leads the development and implementation of the firm-wide strategy for growth, team development, and operations execution, while ensuring a strong, client-first approach. He is committed to empowering team members through strategic planning, education, mentorship, delegation, and effective, efficient processes and technology. Bill is passionate about expanding SRG’s reach and capabilities, refining processes, leveraging technologies, and fostering a culture of excellence that benefits SRG’s clients and team members.
A Chartered Financial Consultant® (ChFC®), Bill holds Series 6, 7, 63, and 65 licenses and is the original creator of The Mile Marker FORMula™, SRG’s proprietary process for organizing a client’s financials around their goals and stages of life to help them pursue their work-optional lifestyle. His guiding philosophy is “Plan First, Invest Second”: clearly define the financial job to be done, then choose the right tool for that job—never a one-size-fits-all product.
Bill works exclusively by introduction from existing clients, focusing on people who say, “I understand pieces of my financial situation, but I have no idea how to coordinate everything—investments, taxes, legacy planning, cash flow, and giving—especially now that I’m not collecting a paycheck.” He uses an educational, collaborative process so clients feel confident in what they own, why they own it, and how each piece supports their retirement lifestyle.
A lifelong Missourian, Bill was born in Columbia, Missouri, and has lived at the Lake of the Ozarks for nearly four decades. He is an avid off-road motorsports enthusiast and a lifelong drummer who has played in bands spanning blues and rock to jazz, funk, R&B, and country. Bill and his wife, Genise, are proud of the business and team they have built together, as well as their growing family of three children and one grandchild.
