Fee-Only Financial Planner located in the Northland of Kansas City, MO. Our use of technology makes our clients' lives more efficient and simplifies how we work together.

Todd Minear is a Kansas City, MO fee-only financial planner. Open Road Wealth Management provides comprehensive fee-only financial planning and investment management to help clients organize, grow and protect their assets through life’s transitions. As a fee-only, fiduciary, and independent financial advisor, Todd Minear is never paid a commission of any kind, and has a legal obligation to provide unbiased and trustworthy financial advice.

I am Todd Minear, a Fee-Only, CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™, Certified Trust and Fiduciary Advisor and the founder of Open Road Wealth Management.  I have put in the work to be a well-educated and experienced financial advisor.  I’ve done the BSBA, MBA, CTFA and CFP® things and have worked in the financial services industry for over 20 years.  During that time, I have worked in the corporate setting as well as the small-firm environment.  Over the years, I have developed specialties in helping those planning for or enjoying retirement, college funding, crisis situations, and low-cost investment strategies.

I left the corporate world and founded Open Road Wealth Management so I could deliver financial planning and investment management that focuses on the needs of individuals and families.

My home has been Kansas City my entire life.  This is where I have built great relationships, supported the community, and in the process of raising three wonderful children.  As a family, we enjoy staying active by playing sports, traveling to new places in the RV, motorcycle riding, and following the Golden Rule.

Rest assured, I have the experience and character to help you move along the Open Road to financial success.
