Roger Shaffer, managing partner at Shaffer Wealth Management in Alpharetta, Ga., says that the financial-planning process doesn't change during times of market strife, and notes that investors and their advisers must focus on process and their ultimate individual goals in times of uncertainty. By focusing on personal needs and where they are in their own lives -- rather than falling into the news cycle and reacting to what the market is doing -- Shaffer says individuals can more easily ride out and profit from market turbulence.
