Giovanni Antonio Bernetti

I'm Clark, and I founded Toft Wealth in 2026 with a simple aim: to build a company that truly cares for its clients, its future employees, and its community, while pursuing craft and care in the work. Before Toft, I worked on nearly every side of the business: client service at a national brokerage firm, internal wholesaling and back-office wealth management at a Bloomington-based financial services company, and advising families at a local RIA. I earned my finance degree from Illinois State University in 2021 and completed my CFP® certification in 2024. Toft Wealth is a fee-only firm anchored in Bloomington-Normal and Central Illinois, with virtual service available. We work with retirees and those nearing retirement, widows, inheritors, and households facing consequential financial decisions. Most clients work with us through Wealth Management, which pairs ongoing comprehensive planning with investment management. We also offer standalone ongoing planning and one-time project planning. Every engagement follows our Financial Plat, a process for mapping out and caring for each part of a household's financial life over time. Our hope is to help people steward their resources with joy, peace, and generosity.
