Rhodo Wealth Management LLC

I launched my firm in July of 2024 to continue working with my clients on my own terms. I work with a wide range of types of clients. However, most of my clients tend to fit into a few archetypes; wealth accumulators, wealth distributors, and business owners. The clients I work with benefit when we take a comprehensive approach to their financial picture. Each client receives assistance with retirement planning, investment management, tax planning, insurance/estate planning, and behavioral finance. Does your situation feel familiar? - Accumulator - These clients come to me after some early career success or receiving a windfall (i.e inheritance or large cash distribution). I help clients navigate their financial life from now until retirement and beyond. In many cases this can be 25+ years in the future. I help ensure that you are doing the correct actions each year to build your wealth and enjoy your time and money now... - Distributor - Clients in this stage of their life have regularly saved in their employers retirement plan or independently over their working career. Now that retirement is looming or in motion, you need a plan to distribute your assets and pay your bills. We work together to prepare a distribution plan that coordinates social security, pensions, and distributions from retirement accounts to be the most tax efficient as possible. You've saved all this time, now it is time to enjoy! - Business Owners - My business owner clients fit into a combination of accumulation and distribution. Wherever your business is, we will navigate growing, preserving, and distributing the assets through the lifetime of your business. I am proud to be a fee-only, fiduciary, Certified Financial Planner™️ practitioner in my day-to-day working life. Outside of work you can find me spending time with my wife and kids, playing golf/basketball, and enjoying the Fox River Valley where we have set our roots. I can be reached directly at [email protected] or at www.rhodowealth.com for more information. Thanks!
