Welcome to Platt Wealth Management, a fee-only financial advisor helping Carlsbad business owners and biotech and tech professionals make sense of equity compensation, business succession, and growing family finances. With Platt Wealth Management, you’ll find a strategy built around the income and equity events that come with building a career or a company in North County’s innovation corridor.
Our wealth management team will help you turn RSUs, stock options, or a business sale into a durable financial plan. Our advisors are here to support Carlsbad residents through the financial decisions that come with growth.
As a trusted financial firm for Carlsbad’s business owners and equity-compensated professionals, we help you turn stock options, RSUs, and business income into a coordinated financial plan rather than a series of one-off decisions. These moments, an IPO, a vesting schedule, a business sale, come with real tax consequences if they’re handled without a plan.
With over 25 years of experience, we have created a comprehensive investment management philosophy and portfolio strategy that we share with our clients. Our financial advisors work diligently to analyze new opportunities and modern investment options, incorporating them into plans built around equity events and growing businesses.
Platt Wealth Management helps you balance building your business or career with making sure the wealth it generates is actually working for you. For Carlsbad’s business owners and tech professionals, that often means turning equity compensation or business income into a diversified, tax-aware plan.
Once you understand how all the pieces fit together, you can make the choice that helps your business success translate into lasting personal wealth.
We are a fee-only fiduciary; meaning we are not a fee-based, commision based, or wrap fee firm. No team member is compensated based on any recommendations or trades that they may make. Without any conflicts of interest, we are able to work effectively to put you in the best position for success. Our fiduciary promise to you is to always act in your best interest. We promise to provide transparent and unbiased advice when developing a financial plan suited for you.
Good financial advice can have a major impact on your wealth. It is important to have an experienced advisor who can get creative and present you with the best financial strategy.
Major life decisions such as receiving an inheritance, selling a business, retirement, or making a significant purchase provide financial opportunity; but these opportunities come with risks and costs. We consider every moving part of your financial life – opportunity, risk, and cost – and design goal-based strategies that can help you navigate those parts. Once you’ve assessed these parts of your financial life, you then choose the plan that gets you where you want to go but also provides flexibility should you need to adapt to any changes along the way.
