About
Plimsoll Financial Planning is a fee-only, independent advisory firm that serves individual (including high-net-worth) clients and businesses, offering ongoing financial planning, a combined planning-plus-investing service, and limited-scope fixed-fee projects for one-off needs. The firm operates as a solo adviser and does not accept commissions or transaction-based compensation.
The firm uses a goals-based planning process—collecting client data, analyzing the financial picture, presenting and implementing recommendations, and monitoring results—with a structured onboarding of multiple meetings followed by at least three reviews per year. When investment management is part of the engagement, Plimsoll implements portfolios through third‑party outside managers, assisting clients with manager selection, questionnaire completion, and ongoing monitoring rather than providing standalone investment management.
Plimsoll’s business model is notable for its reliance on flat annual planning and bundled planning-plus-investing fees and fixed-fee project offerings instead of the percentage-of-AUM billing common among peers, and it offers discounted planning pricing for medical residents and other emerging professionals. The firm manages a modest amount of assets for a small client roster (roughly $6.3 million across 13 clients), commonly recommends Charles Schwab for custody, and discloses that some outside managers may debit and remit Plimsoll’s fees—arrangements the firm identifies as potential conflicts of interest.

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.
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
