Wealth Management

Wealth management is a life-long journey. The course may change with your financial situation or the status of the current market, but it should always make progress to an established destination: your personal financial goals.

AT THE THODE INVESTMENT CONSULTING GROUP, WE START WITH YOUR LIFE AND PLAN YOUR MONEY AROUND IT.

Envision the Possibilities

Our team helps clients define investment goals using the eMoney Wealth Planning Process and then work to reach them through our advice, experience and guidance. We measure success by the progress you make towards the goals you establish and continually create investment plans aimed to work to minimize any risk that would deter it. eMoney can help to answer the most critical of financial questions, How am I doing?

The Thode Investment Consulting Group of Wells Fargo Advisors believes true wealth management is about individual needs, not absolute dollars. We take inspiration from the iceberg, a symbol of strength whose great substance below the surface creates stability above. Substance and stability are our key principles. Our team develops deep relationships with clients, making your personal goals our goals while remaining ever-vigilant of the risks that aren’t readily apparent.

It's our belief the value of advice and a comprehensive planning process has the potential to enhance investment returns. We believe individuals that adhere to a process have a higher likelihood of success and are less likely to succumb to behavioral biases that can prevent investors and families from reaching their goals.

Through prudent investment counsel, thoughtful tax planning strategies and expense control, we work with you and your tax and legal professionals to provide a seamless, cohesive strategy.

Being part of Wells Fargo Advisors we have access to professionals in business succession planning, foundation and endowment consulting, tax planning, estate investment planning and philanthropic planning to name just a few. We can also provide access to Wells Fargo affiliate products and services such as wealth planning, private banking, trust services and insurance as well as various customized and more traditional lending products.
