-
Is Wind Capital a fiduciary?
Yes. Wind Capital acts as a fiduciary on advisory accounts, which means we are obligated to act in your best interest. Our recommendations are driven by your goals, your timeline, and your circumstances—not by commissions or product quotas.
-
What is your investment philosophy?
Markets fluctuate, but disciplined investing endures. We construct diversified portfolios designed to pursue long-term growth while carefully managing risk and taxes—helping our clients invest with confidence regardless of market headlines.
As with all investing, returns cannot be guaranteed and investments involve risk, including the possible loss of principal. Our focus is on building resilient, tax-aware portfolios aligned with your personal goals.
-
How does Wind Capital charge for its services?
We are compensated through a transparent, asset-based advisory fee calculated as a percentage of assets under management (AUM). You will always know exactly how we are compensated, and there are no hidden commissions on advisory accounts.
Certain insurance products or brokerage transactions may involve separate compensation, which is always fully disclosed in advance.
-
Why choose Wind Capital instead of a large national investment firm?
Because you'll receive personalized advice from an experienced advisor who knows you—not a call center or a rotating team.
Every recommendation is tailored to your specific goals, and you'll have a trusted advisor available when important financial decisions arise, whether that's a market downturn, a career change, or a question about retirement withdrawals.
-
Can you help lower my taxes in retirement?
Tax-efficient planning is a core component of our process. We evaluate strategies such as:
- Roth conversion planning
- Retirement withdrawal sequencing
- Capital gains management
- Tax-efficient asset location
The goal is to help you keep more of what you've earned and pursue greater after-tax wealth over time. While we do not provide tax preparation or legal advice, we coordinate closely with your CPA or tax professional.
-
Do you manage investments and provide financial planning?
Yes. Investment management is only one part of what we do. We integrate retirement planning, Social Security strategies, estate planning coordination, insurance analysis, education planning, and cash flow planning into one comprehensive financial strategy—so every piece of your financial life works together.
-
How do you help clients prepare for retirement?
For pre-retirees, we focus on answering the questions that matter most: When can I retire? How much income will I have? How do I turn my savings into a reliable paycheck?
We build a retirement income plan that addresses withdrawal strategies, Social Security timing, healthcare costs, tax efficiency, and portfolio positioning—so you can approach retirement with clarity and confidence.
-
Can you help me decide when to claim Social Security?
Yes. Social Security optimization is one of our specialties. The timing of your claim can meaningfully affect your lifetime retirement income, and the right strategy depends on your health, income needs, spousal benefits, and overall financial plan. We model multiple claiming scenarios to help you make an informed decision.
-
Do you work with business owners?
Yes. We help business owners and entrepreneurs with business retirement plans, tax-efficient investment strategies, succession and exit planning considerations, and personal wealth management. If you're preparing for the sale of a business, we can help you plan for the transition and manage the proceeds in a coordinated, tax-aware way.
-
Do you offer virtual meetings?
Yes. Wind Capital offers virtual financial planning services, so we can work together conveniently and securely no matter where you live. Many of our clients prefer a mix of virtual and in-person meetings.
-
Is there a minimum to work with Wind Capital?
Our services are best suited for individuals and families seeking comprehensive, ongoing wealth management. The best way to find out whether we're a good fit is to schedule an introductory conversation—there's no cost or obligation.
-
What happens in the first meeting?
The first meeting is a conversation, not a sales pitch. We'll discuss your goals, your current financial picture, and the questions on your mind. From there, we'll explain how we can help, how we're compensated, and what working together looks like—so you can make an informed decision at your own pace.
-
How do I get started?
Simply reach out to schedule an introductory call. We'll listen to your goals, answer your questions, and outline a clear path forward.
