About

Means Wealth Management provides advisory services to individuals, high‑net‑worth clients, trusts, estates, non‑profit organizations, corporations and other business entities, and it also serves as investment professional to qualified employer retirement plans and an investment club. Its services include discretionary and non‑discretionary portfolio management, integrated financial planning for ongoing clients, limited standalone financial planning, and exit planning for business owners.

The firm implements model portfolios using both active and passive strategies and customizes allocations based on client demographics, objectives, and risk tolerance, and it may engage third‑party sub‑advisers for all or a portion of client assets. For eligible clients the firm can implement more complex strategies — including options and the use of margin — and provides ongoing monitoring with quarterly reporting and electronic account access through its reporting platform and designated custodians.

Distinctive features include ongoing advisory relationships with a pooled vehicle (an investment club) and the disclosure that one or more supervised persons participate in private real estate investment vehicles in which clients may also be invested, subject to compliance review and disclosure. The firm also provides project‑based exit planning that can result in post‑liquidity asset management and automates filing of class‑action recoveries for clients through a third‑party service that retains a portion of any recovery.

Not sure where to start?

We'll help you think it through—whether you ultimately need an advisor or not. Warmer helps you compare advisors clearly, so you can choose with confidence.

Find your advisor

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. Advisors are independent and may not have reviewed or updated this information. Please review an advisor’s Form ADV and do your own diligence before deciding whether to work with them.

Advisor matching and introductions are provided by FinanceHQ LLC (“FHQ”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Warmer and an SEC-registered investment advisor. We receive compensation from certain participating advisors for introductions or referrals. This creates a conflict of interest because we have an incentive to recommend advisors who compensate us, including those who pay us more. You pay no fee to use our matching service, and advisor fees are not increased because of a referral or introduction. We do not review the ongoing performance of advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.

By using our service, you agree to our Terms of Service and Advisory Agreement, and acknowledge our Privacy Policy. Please review FHQ’s ADV Part 2A and Form CRS. Logos provided by Logo.dev
