LGBTQ+ financial planning for 9th & 9th
Utah's a flat tax with real quirks and a real legal landscape for queer families. The plan has to speak to both.
Built for 9th & 9th LGBTQ+ households
9th & 9th is one of Salt Lake City's most walkable, LGBTQ+-friendly neighborhoods — Craftsman single-family, condos, and a mix of tech workers and healthcare professionals.
- Second-parent adoption is a genuinely important protection in Utah and hasn't happened yet.
- Utah's flat income tax makes Roth conversion timing more attractive than in most states — and nobody has modeled it.
- Your Silicon Slopes RSUs have quietly become the biggest asset in the household.
- Estate documents don't travel well outside Utah.
How we help 9th & 9th households
Second-parent adoption follow-through
Even with marriage, presumption laws don't travel reliably across state lines. We help you sequence and budget the second-parent adoption that makes parentage bulletproof in every state.
Roth conversion timing
The lower-income years between careers, sabbaticals, or before RMDs are the ones to fill up cheap Roth space. We map the multi-year plan instead of one-off flips in December.
RSU + ESPP sequencing across two careers
Vest calendars, concentration risk, ESPP hold-vs-sell, and the tax bill hiding in your next refresh — coordinated with the rest of the plan, not treated as a separate problem.
