Why did you become a financial advisor?

I've been a professor for nearly twenty years, and I've followed financial markets closely for just as long. Both reward the same habits: check the evidence, distrust the easy answer, and explain things so they're actually understood. I became an advisor because of how most advice is paid for. A fee based on a percentage of your assets grows with your account, not with the work. Advice that comes bundled with products comes with someone else's incentives. I built the practice I'd want to hire myself: a flat fee agreed in advance, nothing to sell, no commissions. So the work looks different. Every recommendation comes with the reasoning behind it, the alternatives I considered, and what would change my mind. Plans are written in plain English and short enough to read in one sitting. There are no newsletters, no market predictions, no product of the month. You'll hear from me when your life or your plan calls for it.

About

Ichiro Takayoshi, a tenured professor at Tufts University where he has taught since 2008, founded Takayoshi Wealth Management, a fee-only practice in Newton, MA.

Engagements begin with a 90-Day Financial Sprint that builds the plan, followed by optional Year-Round Advisory. Portfolio advice centers on low-cost, diversified funds.
