Financial Advisors in Estero, Florida (Lee County)

Are you looking for unbiased financial advice or another well-rehearsed sales pitch?

At Finley Wealth Management, a promise of objective advice is more than just words, we are compensated exclusively by the fee paid to us by you, our client. You simply pay for our expertise, with a transparent professional fee. We have no products to sell, commissions to attain, or quotas to meet.

It's our firm belief that professional advice and product sales are incompatible. As Fee-Only Certified Financial Planners we sell advice where your dreams are the basis for our advice. Traditional Financial Advisors or Brokers most often sell products that are the motivation for the "advice" they give. When you work with us you receive objective advice from a Fee-Only Certified Financial Planner.

We act in a fiduciary capacity when advising our clients, and this is much more unique than you might imagine. The vast majority of employees of banks, brokerage firms, and insurance companies charge a management fee part of the time and are commissioned salespeople at other times. These brokers call themselves fee-based, attempting to confuse you into thinking they are fee-only.... See More

RTD Financial Advisors, Inc.; specializes in working with business owners, corporate executives, medical professionals, and heirs of estates.
Our mission: With unrelenting passion, RTD's mission is to help our clients achieve financial freedom so they may experience balanced and fulfilling lives.

We start with DISCOVERY, where we reach beyond the quantifiable into the potential, the possible, and maybe even the fanciful. We step away from what you have been doing, and instead set out to discover what you would like to be doing. Not with your investments, but with your life. This is the first step toward being free from a lifetime of financial limitations.

Once we've learned what's important to you, and have your relevant financial data, we begin to PLAN. We develop detailed recommendations and alternatives carefully researched and not just based on the best financial practices, but on your goals and values. Some of our clients have seen their lives take off in new directions as a result of our work together. Others have resumed their prior routines with renewed vitality and deepened commitment. Both groups share clarity of purpose that their lives didn't hold before and both enjoy the freedom of living as fully as possible according to their own values, minus the headache of complexity and the heartache of uncertainty.

Our clients come from diverse backgrounds and have accumulated wealth in a multitude of ways. As business owners, corporate executives, medical professionals or heirs to an estate, all of our clients share a common vision: the desire to live life to the fullest. Our only requirement for clients is that they embrace Financial Life Planning and have a desire for personal discovery, be involved in the planning process, and have the desire to Free Themselves.

Sean Rogers, CFP

I specialize in clients, particularly women, who are about to retired or have already retired. I provide specialized individual service.

Over the last 30+ years as a wealth advisor I have developed a passion and expertise in three very interesting, but distinct areas.

First, I very much enjoy helping pre-retirees prepare for the transition into retirement. Everything from preparing retirement income projections; proper portfolio positioning; risk and tax-mitigation techniques; to discussing the psychological challenges of the transition to non-work life. I have a passion to help clients handle the transition to retirement well! I enjoy working with physicians; business owners; and widows. I have been a Certified Financial Planner (CFP) helping these types of clients since 1992.

I also have extensive experience in the set up and proper operation of corporate retirement plans such as 401(k)s; 403(b)'s; and 457 plans. I have found that by helping plan sponsors and investment committee members to properly understand and discharge their fiduciary duty, it results in less liability for the business owner / plan sponsor while producing better financial wellness outcomes for plan participants. To stay sharp and up-to-date in this space, I maintain a professional designation as an Accredited Investment Fiduciary Analyst (AIFA). I also offer fiduciary training for forward-thinking plan sponsors and investment committees.

Over the last several years, I have developed an interest in Artificial Intelligence and better understanding how the digital asset space is re-writing how business is done right before our eyes. As a result, I have a lot in common with many millennials, who view this as an area poised for incredible growth in the years ahead as the old financial infrastructure is rapidly being replaced by blockchain record keeping, DeFi; & DEX's. Hence, I developed my tagline: "Advice for a changing world." I was privileged to be the first financial advisor in the United States to pass DACFP’s certificate program in Blockchain and Digital Assets and I also carry a designation as a Certified Digital Asset Advisor (CDAA) and a Certified in Blockchain and Digital Assets designation (CBDA) from DACFP....
