As a fee-only financial planner and investment advisor, my goal is to help you make smart decisions with your money to make work optional. - T.J. van Gerven, CFP®
Scheduling your first phone call and going through our free assessment will help you make an informed decision about hiring us. One flat transparent fee includes the management of all your investment accounts + ongoing financial and tax planning.
There are three really important things about our firm that separates us from others:
1. We specialize in working with high earning young professionals. Most of the industry is geared towards working with retirees.
2. We limit the number of new clients we take on so that we can focus on delivering massive value and a personalized experience to the clients we’ve committed working with.
3. We invest in the latest in financial planning technology to make tracking the progress of your financial journey seamless and rewarding.
Hi, my name is Theodore van Gerven, but you can call me TJ.
I’m the founder of Modern Wealth Builders, LLC, an independent fee-only financial planning practice located in the Greater Boston area.
At MWB, I help people identify what truly matters to them and show them how to use their money to create the life they want.
While I meet with clients in-person when convenient (and when not in a pandemic), I primarily meet with clients virtually.
Meaning, you don’t have to be located in Massachusetts to work with me.
I started MWB, so I could remove the complexity behind financial planning and work with hard-working like-minded professionals.
Outside of helping clients perfect their financial plan, I can be found traveling, playing spike ball on South Beach, or crafting a finance friendly meme
Review our case studies if you’re interested in getting an in-depth description of the types of clients we do our best work for.
