Wealth management · Sherman Oaks, California

One coordinated
plan for your
entire
financial life.

Investments. Retirement. Taxes. Risk. One plan.

Most affluent households have accumulated a broker, an insurance agent, a CPA, and an estate attorney — each working on a different piece of the puzzle, none of them talking to each other. Wealth management is what happens when those pieces are finally coordinated. At Wealthbridge Financial, that's the service: a single CFP®-led plan that pulls your investments, retirement, tax strategy, and risk protection into one coherent strategy, built for how your life actually works.

Wealth management, defined.

The industry uses the term loosely. Here's what it actually means at Wealthbridge — and what it doesn't.

01

It's planning first, products second.

A real wealth management engagement starts with a written plan. Investment portfolios, insurance policies, and tax strategies flow from the plan — not the other way around. If an advisor leads with a product, they're selling, not planning.

02

It's integrated, not siloed.

Wealth management is the connective tissue between your investments, retirement contributions, tax return, estate documents, and insurance coverage. One decision in any of those areas affects the others. We treat them as one system.

03

It's fiduciary, continuously.

Investment advisory is delivered through Acrylic Financial under the fiduciary standard of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. That's not a one-time disclosure — it's an ongoing legal obligation to act in your interest on every recommendation, every review, every rebalance.

04

It's ongoing, not transactional.

A wealth management relationship isn't a one-time consultation. We meet at least twice a year, recalibrate as your life changes, coordinate with your CPA and attorney, and adjust the plan through market cycles, tax law changes, and life events.

Five disciplines. One plan.

Every Wealthbridge wealth management engagement coordinates these five areas. None of them stands alone — that's the point.

Investment management

Evidence-based, diversified portfolios built around your risk capacity and time horizon — not market-timing, hot sectors, or proprietary products. Rebalanced with discipline, tax-location-aware across account types, and loss-harvested where it adds after-tax value. Custodied at Charles Schwab.

Retirement planning

Multi-year projections that model Social Security timing, Roth conversion opportunities, withdrawal sequencing across taxable, tax-deferred, and Roth accounts, and sequence-of-returns risk. The goal isn't just "will I have enough" — it's "what's the most tax-efficient way to use what I have, and will it last."

Tax-efficient strategy

Asset location (what sits where), tax-loss harvesting, Roth conversion ladders, qualified charitable distributions, donor-advised funds, and pass-through entity coordination for business owners. We don't prepare returns — we coordinate directly with your CPA so the investment and tax sides stay aligned.

Risk management & insurance

Honest coverage analysis: term vs. permanent life insurance, disability income protection, long-term care strategy, umbrella liability, and — for business owners — key-person, buy-sell, and practice protection. We run the math and tell you what you actually need. No coverage you don't need, no gaps where it matters.

Estate & legacy coordination

Beneficiary-designation audits, trust funding, asset-titling reviews, generation-skipping strategy, and multi-generational wealth planning. We don't draft legal documents — but we coordinate with your estate attorney to make sure the plan on paper matches how your accounts are actually titled and how your beneficiaries are actually designated.

Acrylic Financial

Registered Investment Advisor. Investment advisory services are delivered under fiduciary standard through Acrylic Financial.

Custodian
Charles Schwab

Your assets are held at Schwab — one of the largest independent custodians in the U.S. You retain 24/7 online access and the advisor never takes custody of client funds.

What it looks like to work with us.

Four phases. No pressure. No surprise pitch at the end.

  1. 1

    Discovery call 30–45 min

    A no-cost conversation. You tell us where you are, what you're trying to solve, and what hasn't been working. We tell you honestly whether we're the right fit. If we're not, we'll point you somewhere else. If we are, we move to step 2.

  2. 2

    Fact-finding & discovery 2–3 weeks

    We gather statements, tax returns, insurance policies, estate documents, and benefits information. Nothing gets done from memory or assumption — we work from real data. You'll also complete a detailed goals and values inventory so the plan reflects what actually matters to you.

  3. 3

    Plan delivery & implementation 2–4 weeks

    We present a written, integrated plan covering all five pillars with specific recommendations and a sequenced implementation schedule. You decide what to implement, when, and through whom. We coordinate the account openings, transfers, insurance applications, and CPA/attorney touch-points.

  4. 4

    Ongoing review & coordination

    Formal reviews twice a year, plus ad-hoc check-ins when life changes — new job, inheritance, home purchase, business exit, tax-law changes, market events. You have direct access to Tony between meetings. Your plan isn't a binder that sits on a shelf; it's a living strategy that evolves with you.

The right fit.

Wealth management isn't for everyone, and it's not for every stage. Here's who tends to benefit most.

Medical professionals

Physicians, surgeons, cardiologists, dentists, pharmacists, nurse practitioners, chiropractors, and other medical professionals navigating high income, complex retirement plan options, student loan decisions, malpractice exposure, and late earning starts.

Business owners

Practice owners, founders, and entrepreneurs who need to coordinate business decisions (entity structure, retirement plans, buy-sell agreements, exit planning) with their personal wealth, tax, and legacy strategy.

High earners with complexity

Households with meaningful income, equity compensation, concentrated positions, multiple account types, or upcoming liquidity events (business sale, inheritance, stock vesting) that need to be navigated carefully.

Multi-generational families

Families who want their financial decisions to survive them — planning not just for their own retirement but for wealth transfer, generational education funding, and the tax efficiency of passing assets to heirs.

Are you actually on track to retire?

Most "retirement calculators" give you one number and call it a day. Real planning looks at three things together: what your portfolio will be worth, what it can sustainably pay you, and whether that matches the lifestyle you want.

This calculator runs all three in real time. Adjust the sliders and watch the dashboard update.

Calculations use a 7% average annual return (growth phase), 3% inflation adjustment, and a 4% sustainable withdrawal rate. For illustration only — not a guarantee of future results.

There's a gap. You're about $143,216/year short of your desired retirement income. Closing it typically means increasing savings, adjusting your target age, or restructuring your portfolio for better tax efficiency. That's exactly what a planning conversation is for.

Disclaimer: This is a simplified projection. A real plan accounts for Social Security, tax location, spending phases, sequence-of-returns risk, and your specific portfolio mix.

Wealth management, answered.

Common questions about how wealth management works at Wealthbridge. See all 25 FAQs →

What's the difference between wealth management and financial planning?
Financial planning is the strategy — the written plan that identifies your goals, cash flow, tax position, risk exposure, and retirement trajectory. Wealth management is financial planning plus ongoing implementation: the investment management, the coordination with your CPA and attorney, the rebalancing, the Roth conversion execution, the insurance reviews. Planning without implementation is an unused binder. Wealth management is the planning relationship that actually gets the work done.
Do I need a minimum portfolio to work with a wealth manager?
Our minimums and fees depend on engagement scope. Investment management is tiered and declines as assets grow. For planning-only or hourly engagements, we quote a flat fee up front. The initial consultation is free and carries no obligation — call (310) 620-1150 for specifics for your situation.
How are wealth management fees typically structured?
At Wealthbridge, investment management is charged as a percentage of assets under management through Acrylic Financial. Certain insurance and risk products are commission-based when they're the right tool. All compensation is disclosed in writing before you sign anything, and we explain which hat we're wearing on every recommendation. We can also structure flat-fee planning engagements on request.
Can you work with my existing CPA and estate attorney?
Yes — and we prefer it. Your CPA knows your tax history, your attorney knows your estate documents, and keeping those relationships in place preserves continuity. We coordinate directly with them on tax projections, year-end moves, beneficiary updates, and trust funding. If you don't have these professionals, we'll introduce you to ones we trust.
How is this different from a robo-advisor or a target-date fund?
Robo-advisors and target-date funds solve one narrow problem well: "how do I invest in a diversified portfolio inexpensively?" They don't coordinate with your CPA, don't run Roth conversion analyses, don't review your insurance, don't help you decide when to start Social Security, and don't know about the concentrated stock position you inherited. For simple situations they're fine. For complex ones — high earners, business owners, multiple account types, real estate, insurance, estate concerns — they're not planning at all.
