Top Financial Advisors in MN
At 360 Financial, we aim to take care of every single client like they’re our family.
As an independent firm with a team of eight qualified financial advisors our goal is to provide outstanding service and personalized big picture planning. We are fee-based fiduciary financial advisors who put your needs and goals first.
What Is Fee-Based Financial Planning?
A fee-based financial advisor doesn't sell you products in order to earn a commission.
There are no hidden fees. When working with a fee-based financial advisor you will pay a percentage of assets under management. This covers all the services provided by your advisory firm.
At 360, you receive comprehensive wealth management services, and you don’t have to worry about hidden costs.
What Are the Benefits of Working with a Fiduciary?
A fiduciary financial advisor has a legal obligation to act in your best interests at all times.
Not all financial planners or advisors are fiduciaries. Thus, when looking for a wealth management team, it’s important to check the designations your advisor has.
One main benefit of working with a fiduciary is that you can sleep well at night knowing your advisor is always acting in your best interest.

Do you have an up-to-date financial plan?
Your financial plan is a step-by-step guide to help you pursue your goals.
A well-structured financial plan is crucial because it serves as a roadmap to your financial success.
It not only outlines your financial goals but also provides a strategic approach to reach them, factoring in your income, expenses, and lifestyle.
A robust financial plan goes beyond just managing your money.
It ensures your financial decisions align with your life objectives, enabling you to confidently navigate life’s uncertainties and build a secure future. Financial planning is one of the essential elements you need when building wealth and pursuing financial independence.
What should you expect from a financial advisor?
-
You should expect a comprehensive financial plan that is updated at least annually
-
You should expect a financial advisor to reach out to you quarterly.
-
Your financial planning office should know you and your family and address any of your needs.
Your investment advisor should be your partner in pursuing your goals.
We believe that your investment advisor and financial planner should be working right beside you with your best interest at heart at all times. We believe that your financial advisor should be caring, open, and honest. They should give you a comprehensive plan by looking at your entire financial picture.
Finally, your financial advisor should meet with you annually to review your financial plan and investments and make changes as necessary.
Without a clear plan, you may be missing out on opportunities to protect your wealth and prepare for the future.
Many people think that you have to have $100M in assets to have a wealth management team that looks out for your entire financial big picture. But that’s not the case.
It only takes one wrong financial move to wipe out an entire lifetime of wealth building.
What is the cost of not having a strong financial team?
We believe that a comprehensive financial plan and wealth management strategy is critical for financial security and peace of mind.
"Someone's sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago."
- Warren Buffett

360 Financial FAQ
Many financial planners charge a 1% fee, which may not include the investment fees. Some underlying investments—such as certain mutual funds—within your portfolio may have costs over and above what you pay for financial advice.
What is a normal fee for a financial planner?
We charge assets under management (AUM) fee. Essentially that means we charge a fee on the assets that we manage. It’s a percentage of your account value. We are always transparent with our service and investment fees. And we believe that you should always ask your financial advisor about the all-in cost.
How do you charge? What is your cost structure?
The terms financial advisor and a financial planner are used interchangeably. We recommend that you work with a Certified Financial Planner that is a fiduciary in Minnesota.
What is the difference between a financial advisor and a financial planner?
You don’t need to bring anything to the first meeting. The first meeting is a conversation about your overall financial picture and your goals, so you don’t need to bring any paperwork.
What should I bring to my first meeting with you?
Mike Rogers, our founder and president, is part of LPL’s Chairman council which is awarded to less than 1% of advisors and based on annual production among LPL Advisors. LPL Financial is the largest brokerage firm in the nation with over 20,000 advisors, ss reported by Financial Planning magazine, 1996-2022, based on total revenue. LPL is the #1 Independent Broker/Dealer in the US1 and the #3 RIA Custodian in the US2.
Does your firm receive recognition for production?
Most of 360 Financials’s clients have a portfolios of $1M or greater. Typically, we work with clients with $1M or more in investable assets or the ability to get there. If a client is younger, and building wealth, we know they will be able to grow their wealth to have $1M or more in assets at retirement.
How much money do I need to have to work with you?
$550M + as of July 13, 2023.
What are 360’s assets under management?

We were looking around for people we trust.
360 was really very thorough in working with us to cover all the aspects of where our areas of concern were.
My wife knows she has an advisor and a partner that if I'm suddenly not here, she would know the financial side of her life would be covered.
Mike Graham
Shared Values
We were looking for a financial advisor who shared our values.
Before working with 360, we really had no idea how about all the different ways that financial planning can be done and the number of different tools that are out there.
We’re a few years out from retirement and are starting to plan how we’re going to stay busy and which opportunities we’re going to pursue after we leave the workforce.
We appreciate the job 360 is doing for us.
