01 — The idea

Aging is the one deadline most people want to push back. We think you should plan for aging, rather than procrastinate.

A note from Tom

You have spent your whole life putting off things you don't want to do. You're a procrastinator. Now you are older, and you're a ProcrastinAger™, putting off the things you don't want to accept or do, turning that habit into a practice.

ProcrastinAgers don't plan for active aging.

We help ProcrastinAgers become positive agers. Our work is part health, part medical, and part psychological. We figure out what is changing for you. That can mean memory, energy, mood, or how your body uses food. Then we plan, in writing, how to slow it down. Some clients want a year. Some want a decade. Most just want the next chapter to feel like theirs.

If that sounds like you, we should talk.

Meet the ProcrastinAging™ Founder.

Tom West

Founder and Healthcare-Driven Financial Planner · ProcrastinAging.com

Tom West is a top investment advisor at Signature Estate & Investment Advisors (SEIA) with decades of experience helping families plan for what comes next instead of procrastinating. Tom started two other companies, Lifecare Affordability Plan (LCAP) and Healthspan Wealth.

ProcrastinAging began as a question Tom kept hearing from many of his retired clients: now that we have the time, have we prepared for aging? That question turned into a method. The method turned into a practice. Today, Tom consults with individuals, families, and family offices on aging-related planning decisions and on the simpler and harder question of how to keep going on your own terms.

Tom writes the ProcrastinAging Journal, leads the ProcrastinAging workshops, and is the named consultant on every private engagement.
