Anthony Blansett

Anthony Blansett grew up in Orange County, California and graduated with a BA in Economics from the University of Redlands in Southern California. While attending college, he participated in four years of NCAA football and served as president of his fraternity. He later completed his first master’s degree while serving on active duty as a commissioned officer and pilot with the U.S. Marine Corps.

Anthony specializes in risk-free asset management, IRA/401(k) conversion strategies and retirement income planning. He is particularly focused on helping clients mitigate the severe impact of taxes on qualified retirement plans, Social Security income and the cost of Medicare premiums. Proper planning with qualified retirement accounts can dramatically reduce income taxes, preserve your Social Security and minimize the cost of Medicare premiums.

He has completed the Certified Retirement Financial Advisor (CRFA) curriculum, which is an advanced designation for experienced advisors who focus on retirees’ unique financial and estate planning needs. He is currently completing the Master of Science for Financial Services (MSFS) program through the Institute of Business and Finance (IBF). The MSFS consists of board certifications in estate planning, taxes, retirement income planning, annuities and mutual funds. While there is no financial regulatory requirement to complete this particular curriculum, the MSFS through the IBF was selected as the best platform to enhance the scope of services provided by Blansett Wealth Navigation.

Anthony lives in Boise’s Harris Ranch. In his free time, he enjoys skiing, sailing and hiking with his dog, Tupelo. He has one daughter who graduated from Boise High School, earned her bachelor’s degree from UC Berkeley, her master’s degree from UC Santa Barbara and is currently working as a consulting arborist in Denver.
