At 360 Financial, we’re here to help you with your big picture planning and financial advice needs.
You’ve worked hard to become successful, and you deserve experienced guidance in seeking to ensure your assets are protected.
We’re here to help you pursue your most important financial goals and build a lasting legacy.
Based in Minnesota, with clients across the United States, we specialize in helping successful people manage their big-picture financial goals through our financial advisor's knowledge, financial planning, and estate planning services.
A financial advisor who cares about you and your specific situation is essential. Financial planning is not one-size-fits-all, and you need an advisor that is in tune with your goals and needs.
Money touches everything in most people’s lives.
Why do you need to have a financial advisor who cares?
You want your financial advisor to look at the whole picture and put together a plan. Investments should be a part of that plan but not the entire plan.
At 360 Financial, we focus on tax strategies, income planning, legacy planning, risk management, investment planning, and estate planning.
360’s financial advisors consider your entire financial picture when creating a plan for you.
This attention to detail is the level of care you should expect when meeting with financial advisory firms and choosing the right financial advisor for you.
Finding a financial advisor who focuses on comprehensive financial planning is essential.
Choosing Your Financial Advisor
Do you need financial planning?
You need financial planning if you have financial goals that you would like to work towards.
If that sounds like you, then you will benefit from a plan to pursue those goals.
At 360 Financial, we put together a comprehensive financial plan for our clients that puts them in control of their financial outlook.
Economically and politically, changes often impact our financial future.
We tend to think about the market, but some economic and political changes can affect other aspects of a financial plan.

Common Questions:
Yes, as Investment Advisor Representatives with our Registered Investment Advisor, we are fiduciaries and act in the best interest of our clients.
Are you fiduciaries?
Yes, we do not charge commissions—only our fee, based on assets under management.
Are you a fee-only financial advisor?
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.
How do you charge? What is your cost structure?
Our ideal client has $1M or more in investable assets or the ability to get there. (ie. If a client is younger and is building wealth, we know they will eventually have $1M or more in assets at retirement.)
How much money do I need to have to work with you?
A financial advisor should give you a comprehensive plan by looking at your entire financial picture and working with you to pursue your goals. They should meet with you at least annually to review your plan and make changes as necessary. Your advisor should be your partner and listen to you and your needs. Investing is a big part of it, but it shouldn’t be the only part that your advisor focuses.
What are the benefits of working with a financial advisor?
A CFP is a fiduciary, and they have to act in the best interest of their clients. They also know how to create a comprehensive plan, as they have studied risk management, estate planning, and taxes. A financial planner that does not have a CFP designation does not need to act in the best interest of their clients, and they only do what is suitable for their clients. Of course, most still act in the best interest, but you must be careful with who you choose if they do not have the designation.
What is the difference between a financial planner and a CFP?
You don’t need to bring anything if you don’t want to. The first meeting is just a conversation about your overall financial picture and your goals.
What should I bring to my first meeting with you?
$550M + as of 6/7/2023.
