Unrivaled Wealth Management

Welcome! I'm Matt Garasic, founder of Unrivaled Wealth Management. I specialize in working with executives and key employees across the United States. Business executives and other professionals start working with me when: • They don't have the time and/or desire to properly manage their finances. • They're experiencing a significant life event and need help navigating the financial ramifications. • They crave the freedom to work on their terms as quickly as possible so they can spend more time on what’s important to them. I relieve my clients' stress and help uncover new opportunities by synchronizing everything related to their financial lives, including cash flow, tax, investment, estate, and insurance planning. Clients enjoy working with me because my approach is drastically different from what they’ve experienced or heard about financial advisors. • I avoid financial jargon and explain topics in plain English. • I want you to understand every recommendation before it's implemented. • You’ll always speak directly to me and receive personalized answers to your questions. • You never have to wonder if my recommendations are incentivized by a commission or ulterior motive. • I focus on helping you enjoy your money while you’re alive instead of competing for the highest net worth in the graveyard. Book an introductory meeting and let's see if it makes sense to work together!

Warmer provides personalized recommendations and introductions to independent fiduciary advisors. We do not supervise advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.

Each advisor listed on our site is an independent fiduciary responsible for their own advice. Warmer may receive fees from advisors for participation or referrals; these fees are paid by advisors and do not affect the fees clients pay for advisory services.

For advisor listings, we rely on sources including public filings and data provided by advisors, and we cannot guarantee that all information is current or accurate. Please review an advisor's Form ADV and do your own diligence before entering into an advisory relationship.
