1. A financial planning method, comprising:
- retrieving user data related to a user;
generating a financial plan comprising recommendations for the user using a computer-implemented self-service financial planner of an institution;
providing the financial plan to a user computing device of the user from the computer-implemented self-service financial planner via a network;
monitoring, using a processor, the user'"'"'s actions related to implementation of the recommendations in the financial plan and financial data over a selected period of time;
continuously monitoring whether any of the user data has changed;
determining, using the processor, the user'"'"'s risk tolerance by analyzing the user'"'"'s actions related to implementation of the recommendations in the financial plan in view of the financial data and;
generating a revised financial plan so that the revised financial plan is aligned with the user'"'"'s risk tolerance determined by the processor and changes to the user data; and
providing the revised financial plan to the user.

Abstract
A user may obtain self-service financial planning. A comprehensive set of data pertaining to a user is gathered from various sources and analyzed to generate a financial plan. A user may be presented with various financial scenarios based on information provided by the user. The user may perform “what if” analyses to determine prospective financial plans and results based on hypothetical information that the user may provide. A user may be provided with a financial plan and the user may see how the plan changes under various risk tolerances and life event scenarios.
