Types of Advisory Services Investment Advice and Consulting Our firm provides discretionary money management services to individuals for their personal investment accounts as well as for their company-sponsored retirement plan accounts. In providing our advisory services we utilize no-load mutual funds or electronically traded funds (“ETF’s”) which fit well with our conservative long-term approach to investing. Our primary focus is the management of IRA’s, 401(k)’s and other retirement-related accounts for individuals. We also offer non-discretionary advice to individuals and retirement plan participants. ERISA Clients WCS offers fiduciary services to company retirement plan sponsors. WCS acknowledges that we are a fiduciary, and we discharge our duties for the exclusive benefit of plan participants. WCS discloses information about the services we provide and the compensation we receive for such services in in this ADV Part 2A. Notably, in conjunction with its advisory services for company-sponsored retirement plans, WCS is typically acting in the capacity of an ERISA Section 3(38) “manager” (fiduciary). Investment Management Our firm provides discretionary money management services to individuals for their personal investment accounts as well as for their company-sponsored retirement plan accounts. In providing our advisory services, we utilize no-load mutual funds and/or ETF’s. One of our goals is to minimize expenses, so consequently we often build portfolios with a concentration in index funds. All accounts have the goal of maximizing risk-adjusted returns. Our primary focus is the management of plan participant accounts within company-sponsored 401(k) plans. In doing so we utilize pooled mutual fund portfolios as well as managed or participant directed separate accounts. We also offer non-discretionary advice to individuals and retirement plan participants. Our discretionary advisory services are matched to specific individuals’ needs by assisting them to determine which of our managed model portfolios best aligns with their desired risk profile and timeframe to retirement (or expected drawdown of the managed assets). This “Risk” vs. “Timeframe” matrix may be represented as follows: Alternatively, the “Risk” vs. “Timeframe” matrix may be represented as follows: Conservative Moderate Aggressive Aggressive – Ultra Long-Term Less than Five

Years Five to Ten Years Ten to Twenty Years More than Twenty Years We work closely with two affiliated Third Party Administrators (“TPAs”) , Everington Consulting, Inc. (“ECI”) and Wellington Retirement Solutions, Inc. (“WRS”) that provide retirement plan recordkeeping services. It should be noted that the allocation of our managed model portfolios may differ between each of the recordkeeping platforms based upon the differences in funds that are available, due to the software requirements of the TPA, or for other reasons. Such variation in managed portfolio composition also applies to individual accounts where the allocations and fund choices of our managed model portfolios may differ substantially. WCS strives to keep clients apprised of its strategy and current market outlook. The firm fosters a culture that focuses on maintaining transparency and openness for successful relationships and stresses this approach as both a core company value and an expectation of all employees in their dealings with clients and each other. IRA Rollover Recommendations Effective December 20, 2021 (or such later date as the US Department of Labor ("DOL") Field Assistance Bulletin 2018-02 ceases to be in effect), for purposes of complying with the DOL's Prohibited Transaction Exemption 2020-02 ("PTE 2020-02") where applicable, we are providing the following acknowledgment to you. When we provide investment advice to you regarding your retirement plan account or individual retirement account, we are fiduciaries within the meaning of Title I 6 of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act and/or the Internal Revenue Code, as applicable, which are laws governing retirement accounts. The way we make money creates some conflicts with your interests, so we operate under a special rule that requires us to act in your best interest and not put our interest ahead of yours. Under this special rule's provisions, we must:
• Meet a professional standard of care when making investment recommendations (give prudent advice);
• Never put our financial interests ahead of yours when making recommendations (give loyal advice);
• Avoid misleading statements about conflicts of interest, fees, and investments;
• Follow policies and procedures designed to ensure that we give advice that is in your best interest;
• Charge no more than is reasonable for our services; and
• Give you basic information about conflicts of interest. We benefit financially from the rollover of your assets from a retirement account to an account that we manage or provide investment advice, because the assets increase our assets under management and, in turn, our advisory fees. As a fiduciary, we only recommend a rollover when we believe it is in your best interest. Assets Under Management WCS manages client assets on a discretionary and non-discretionary basis.
