A More Proactive Approach to Planning
Bricker Financial Planning was built on a simple idea: better decisions come from better planning.
Founder Gregory Bricker began his career in tax, with the goal of helping people keep more of what they earn. What he saw early on was a pattern: most advice came too late. By the time clients sat down to review their taxes, the decisions had already been made and the opportunities were gone.
That realization led to a different approach. Financial planning should be proactive, not reactive. It should guide decisions before they happen, not explain them after the fact.
Today, that approach is at the core of everything we do. We work with clients throughout the year, building a plan that evolves as life changes and keeps every decision aligned with the bigger picture.
While many advisors focus on a single area, we focus on how everything works together. Investments matter. But they are only one part of a much larger strategy. When every piece is connected, you are better positioned to grow, protect and use your wealth with intention.
No matter where you are in life, the goal is the same: understand your next step and have a clear plan to move forward.
Investment Philosophy
Our investment philosophy is grounded in a straightforward belief: markets already reflect the best information available.
Instead of trying to outguess the market, we focus on what can be controlled: costs, discipline and long-term strategy. We use low-cost, transparent investment vehicles designed to reduce unnecessary fees and avoid excessive trading.
Many investors are led to believe that success comes from timing the market or selecting the next winning stock. In reality, that approach often leads to higher costs, increased taxes and inconsistent results.
We take a different path. Our portfolios are using decades of academic research and are globally diversified to align with your time horizon, risk tolerance and long-term goals.
Every investment decision is made within the context of your broader financial plan, because investing isn’t about chasing performance. It’s about supporting a smart strategy that works over time.
“Our financial advice is always aligned with what matters most to you.”
