Wealth Advisor
As a fee-only advisor, I want to help you understand where you’re currently at, gain clarity on where you want to be, and provide accountability to achieve your goals.” - Ryne Vickery, CFP®
Forever standing on the side of our clients.
Buckingham Strategic Wealth is a fee-only, fiduciary wealth management firm providing comprehensive financial planning, investment management and holistic wealth planning to help clients build and protect their wealth through life’s transitions. Our highest aspiration is to help our clients fulfill their financial dreams. Our advisors are never paid a commission of any kind and have a legal obligation to provide unbiased and trustworthy financial advice.
Ryne Vickery is a fee-only financial advisor at Buckingham Strategic Wealth, located in Saint Louis, MO.
Ryne’s experience with investing began at a very young age. After saving $750 at the age 10, he gave it to his parents’ advisor who invested it in a technology mutual fund. That fund grew to over $3,500 in just a few years before crashing to around $1,000 after the dot-com bubble burst. Despite the ups and downs, Ryne became fascinated with the financial industry and knew what kind of career he wanted.
As a wealth advisor, Ryne works with his advisory team to develop comprehensive wealth management plans for clients. After learning their goals, values and concerns, he helps clients plan to achieve their objectives and alleviate those concerns. Ryne’s ideal clients are professionals, retirees/near-retirees and same-sex couples. The best part of his day is meeting with clients and discovering ways he can be helpful.
Ryne joined Buckingham in 2009 as a client relationship specialist for Buckingham Strategic Partners (BSP) advisor services team and previously served on the onboarding & integration team to help new advisors join Buckingham and BSP. He has been in the financial industry for over 13 years and earned his CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ professional designation in 2015.
A proud Tiger, Ryne holds a bachelor’s degree in finance and banking from the University of Missouri-Columbia. Outside of Buckingham, he enjoys traveling, watching the Cardinals and Blues, playing the piano and checking out the St. Louis food scene. He currently resides with his husband Jeff, and Labradoodle Archie in the Lafayette Square neighborhood of St. Louis.

Buckingham Strategic Wealth helps individuals, businesses, nonprofits and retirement plans owners achieve their most important life and financial goals by building holistic, evidence-based wealth plans.
First, we embark on a personal discovery process to uncover what’s important so we can DESIGN a plan customized to address your deepest wants and needs.
With academic research and financial science as the foundation, we BUILD a plan that’s the perfect fit, with distinct objectives and attainable action items.
Then, we PROTECT your plan by checking in to measure progress toward your goals and adjust as needed.
We are enthusiastic, unapologetic advocates of evidence. Your dreams and passions are too important to leave up to chance. Our offices serve as think tanks, where a kinetic mix of intelligence and diverse professional experience come together to benefit our clients.
We love working with data. Then those insights are put into play. We construct our portfolios out of diversified stock funds; high-quality bonds; and, in some cases, alternative investment strategies. We help you control what you can in your portfolio: taxes, fees and risk.
In addition to being fiduciaries who always work in your best interest, we are proudly fee-only. We do not receive compensation or commission for selling products. This model ensures we are always on the same side as our clients.
