We help travel-loving young families live a life they never want to retire from
Create a savings plan — Grow your net worth — Make work optional
We Aren't Your Traditional Financial Planner
Our Core Beliefs:
Don’t build your savings without building your life.
You don’t want to climb a ladder your whole life to realize it was leaning the wrong way. Get clear on your values so you know where you want your money to take you.
Experiences > things.
Your favorite stories come from experiences, not the things you buy. Don't let the consumerism culture dictate how you spend money.
More money ≠ more happiness.
True wealth is the ability to spend your time in a way that is aligned with your core values. More money can't replace your kid's missed soccer games.
The concept of retirement is obsolete.
Don't defer your life until "retirement". Work part-time. Take a year off. Start a business. Travel the world. Who cares? Never live your life wondering "what if"?
Build optionality into your financial plan.
Nobody can predict where you will be in 30 years. Live in the moment and plan for optionality in the future.
The most important financial decisions occur in your 30s and 40s.
Life transitions = money transitions. It's better to prevent financial mistakes than to fix them in 20 years.

My husband and I began meeting with EYW right after our wedding and decided partnering with them was a no brainer! We have been working together for a year now and they have helped us so much. They really take a compassionate, modern approach in helping us get our life together. Their scope of services is above and beyond our every expectation. They literally help with everything not only financially but truly feel like friends and life coaches on top of it. We feel excited and empowered after our every meeting and look forward to a lifelong partnership. We cannot recommend them enough.

Jake has built a strong team with the addition of Mike Gorman. We worked with Mike prior to EYW and followed him when he made the transition because HE IS THE BEST. Together, Jake and Mike are active listeners who deliver on investment and money strategies.
As a new client, the introduction process was thorough and different than anything we've experienced before with a CFP. We went through exercises to understand our lifestyles, how we use money, and why we spend the way we do. With this info, Mike continually guides us towards our goals like a basketball coach strategizing plays on the court to win the championship game.
We're not rich, but with EYW it's not about how much money you have, it's about using what you have to live your ideal life.

I originally started working with Experience Your Wealth, LLC and Jake in the summer and I've had a very positive experience so far. I actually ended up working with Jake originally because one of my colleagues has worked with him for many years and gave him a stamp of approval. Jake and his team do a great job of walking you through everything and take the time to truly understand your wants/needs and what your finance means to you! I have joked a few times that sometimes it feels like I'm talking to a friend because they really want to understand how your finances tie in with your life/future goals/what's important to you and they take the time to understand what you value and why. If you don't know, they talk you through it until you get a better sense of of your stance. They made a few small financial changes for me right off the bat that made a difference and have been on call for me as needed when I needed to make some quick decisions, which has been a great comfort. Already started working with me on future plans, and do a good job of painting the short term and long term picture. Highly recommend!

It's been an absolute pleasure to have the opportunity to work with Jake and his team at Experience Your Wealth. Jake has been incredibly thoughtful, creative, and thorough in helping my wife and I map out our financial future. He took ample time to understand what's most important to my wife and I and used that vision to craft a plan for us to reach our goals.
Not only did he help us map out what the best next steps were in near, mid, and long term; he's been incredibly hands on in helping us complete the necessary tasks to reach those goals. Working with Jake has provided great peace of mind for our family.
Working with the EYW team has made me feel like we have a trusted partner with your best intentions in mind. I highly recommend him!

My wife and I have been working with EYW throughout the year and have nothing but good things to say. First I will mention that Jake is excellent at listening and understanding what your goals and desires are and makes recommendations to help get to those goals. He clearly explains how each item will work and help achieve the goals. They have helped us get organized, shed light on our finances in ways we haven’t thought about before, and get set up for success in the future. They have helped set up different accounts for short term, mid term, and long term investing. They also walked us through a tool to look at what upgrading the home would look like financially and where we stand as we plan on purchasing in the near future. Jake and Marie are funny and caring, and we are looking forward to many years of working with them.

I have met Jake and Marie almost a year ago. Both of them provide so much support and have set up a solid financial plan that I have followed up ever since. They are smart, honest and always available when I need advice.Their expertise and what needs to be done is always outstanding. Jake is hard working and diligent in his practice.Marie is absolutely amazing making sure I don’t miss deadlines and always gives me an honest opinion if I have a dilemma. Both of them are like true gems:). Great team!

To simply put it, working with Jake and Marie has been life changing. I cannot recommend Experience Your Wealth enough to those looking to finally getting their financial life in order. I guess there is more to it then just managing a monthly budget! 🙂 Working full-time, having our toddler and another on the way, managing multiple properties, while also trying to enjoy life, EYW has helped me have peace of mind for our growing family and future. We've been working with you for 4 months and it's easily one of the best decisions we've made for our financial future. Forever grateful for the recommendation to work with you both. Thank you!

The approach Jake and the team at EYW take to financial planning is truly unique. They make it a personal experience, where the same path is not right for everyone, and there is no one-size-fits-all strategy to achieving your financial goals. I thought I had a good grasp on finances but I can honestly say I’ve learned more about myself and how I perceive money while working with the team than I ever knew prior.
I truly encourage anyone to take the free consultation. We feel more in control with our money than we ever have, and are looking forward to our continued relationship!

Jake is one of the most thoughtful and organized financial planners we have ever met. Before we met him, we had 2 financial planners and interviewed over 8. We immediately connected with Jake in our initial introduction meeting and have been surprised by his personal touch in every engagement. He takes the time to really understand our values and goals so that he can align our financial life accordingly. He truly cares about helping us be financially successful! He's also very organized. My wife and I are well organized with our finances, but Jake helped us take it to the next level. He shares opportunities to align our finances with our goals and keeps us on task by using a project tracker to visually see our short term, medium term, and long-term tasks. We enjoy working with Jake and look forward to our meetings with him - it also feels like we're catching up with a friend and we learn something new about our finances each time! We highly recommend Jake as a personal financial planner - we feel lucky to be one of his clients!

Budgeting, Money, and handling Finances have never been something that come naturally to me, and I would even go so far as to say they are probably my biggest weakness. I have felt a lot of shame around finances and my handling of them in the past.
EYW has been a godsend. Jake and his team make it fun and interesting to start up with them. The focus isnt solely on retirement like with many other planning firms, and instead is helping me to also see the ways my family can achieve other goals that we have around home buying, trip planning, and other things that I want for myself and my family.
Getting started with Jake was fun, and the way everything we shared with him was presented back to us really helped us be able to picture what the short and mid term goals we can set can mean for our family.
5 stars, everyone should have a planner like EYW.

Hi there!
We're the EYW team. Established in 2019, our home "offices" are based in Rhode Island (Jake), Tennessee (Marie) and Arizona (Mike + Lillian) as we operate remotely and work with clients from all around the US.
We provide virtual, fee-only financial planning services to travel-loving young families who don't buy into the traditional "9-5, work-until-you're-65" concept. We help you find the responsible balance between paying down debt, investing for the future, but also experiencing life now.
Our team includes Certified Financial Planners (CFP®), Certified Student Loan Professionals (CSLP®), a Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) and a former Certified Public Accountant (CPA) as we love to nerd-out on the technical side of financial planning, but our true passion lays with the "personal" side of personal finance - helping our clients articulate & visualize their dream life and then best align their financial decisions with their life.
We're shaking up the financial planning industry by bringing modern, life-centered financial planning advice and personal CFO-level service to our clients. We are completely remote, paperless and meet clients over Zoom with frequent guest appearances from kids, dogs, cats and whatever fun animals that may be around your home.
