Bobby Cremins

With nearly 25 years of experience in investment research, portfolio management, and advisory operations, I founded my RIA to provide expert guidance to financial advisors and investors. As a CFA Charterholder, CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™, and Accredited Investment Fiduciary (AIF®), my goal is to simplify the complexities of investing and help clients make informed decisions about stocks, bonds, mutual funds, ETFs, annuities, alternatives, and private investments. For advisors, I offer tailored support for creating model portfolios, conducting investment committee meetings, and developing retirement plan strategies, all aimed at enhancing advisor-client relationships and delivering better outcomes. Over the years, I’ve worked in various roles, from equity research and fixed income trading to serving as the de-facto Chief Investment Officer for a large RIA. My services cover a wide range of needs, including life insurance analysis, capital gains budgeting, structured product and annuity evaluations, options-based strategies for individual stock positions, IPS reviews, enhanced prospect conversions, and the development of customized model portfolios. I pride myself on providing data-driven insights to help advisors improve their practices, better serve their clients, and grow their businesses. In addition to my professional work, I enjoy spending time with my wife and four kids, golfing, traveling, coaching youth sports, and mentoring students. I’m passionate about investing in future generations and advancing the fields of finance and investing. My technical expertise, combined with a personal approach, allows me to work alongside advisors to elevate their client offerings, streamline operations, and achieve lasting success.

I’m a CFA® and CFP® professional who helps young professionals and growing families navigate life’s big financial decisions with clarity and confidence. Many of my clients are in the middle of major transitions—equity compensation, an inheritance, buying a home, or welcoming a child—and want expert guidance without the jargon. I combine deep technical expertise with a straightforward, approachable style so you can make smart moves today and build lasting wealth for tomorrow. My approach is collaborative and grounded in your real-life goals. We’ll create a plan that’s clear, flexible, and tailored to your priorities—whether that’s funding your next big move, investing for long-term growth, or making work optional someday. The result? You spend less time stressing about money and more time enjoying the life you’re building.

Mindful Wealth is an independent financial planning and investment advisory firm dedicated to helping individuals and families navigate financial complexity with clarity, confidence, and intention. We believe that financial planning is not simply about managing money; it is about helping people live meaningful lives aligned with their values, goals, and evolving circumstances. Money touches every aspect of life: career decisions, family relationships, health, geography, opportunity, and legacy. Yet traditional financial advice often focuses narrowly on investments or isolated transactions. At Mindful Wealth, we take a different approach. We view financial planning as an integrated, ongoing process that connects every financial decision to the broader story of a person’s life. Our work begins not with markets or products, but with people. We partner with clients during moments of transition, growth, uncertainty, and reinvention to help them make thoughtful financial decisions in an increasingly complex world.

Retirement Income & Tax Planning We have the ability to make the greatest impact for people who are within 5 years of retirement to 5 years post retirement. That 10 year window is crucial for establishing and executing a plan designed to minimize your tax bill and allow you to live your best life, whatever that means to you. The earlier we begin working with a client in that window, the better. Here are some examples of the questions we help clients answer: When can I retire? When should I claim Social Security benefits? How much can I spend each month? How can I minimize my tax bill? Should I take a lump sum pension payment or monthly income? Do I need a trust, or is a will sufficient? What other estate planning documents should I have? Should I change my investment mix as I age? How can I avoid the Medicare IRMAA surcharge?
