Lifestyle is based in Friendswood, Texas, south of Houston, and employs seven advisers and five support staff professionals. Laura Nagle, who was a teacher before switching to financial advising 35 years ago, still does 403(b) plan retirement planning for educators, but today primarily serves the retirement rollover and planning needs of clients in the petrochemical industries.
