John Foligno has 30+ years of professional work and coaching/mentoring experience, which includes over 10 years of running his own business. Through empathy, active listening and thoughtful counsel, he lives his personal mission by inspiring people to overcome the roadblocks that prevent them from accomplishing their goals, and helps them to find enlightenment, fulfillment, and financial well-being. He specializes in supporting high-net-worth households, although he enjoys working with all manner of people. As a business owner, John learned the hard way how much he would have benefited from a financial steward who understands the myriad challenges of running a business. That experience, coupled with his passion for financial planning, enables him to relieve business owners of the day-to-day concerns of reaching their financial goals, which frees them to focus on their growth and ultimate exit strategy. As a graduate of Syracuse University’s Whitman School of Management, John studied finance and marketing. John is a member of NAPFA, whose members completed a broad-based advanced education program in financial planning and are trained to provide coordinated advice on issues surrounding a client’s entire financial picture. When he is not fulfilling his fiduciary obligation of putting his client’s interest first, John is sharing time with his wife, Michelle, his daughter, Ruby, and their golden retriever, Honey. He enjoys a healthy lifestyle of strength conditioning and hiking as well as watching sports and reading. John is a first-degree black belt in Goju karate that guides his disciplined approach. He volunteers his time for the honor of helping people with limited financial education to make more informed decisions and has been featured in financial planning media journals to share his insights.

Let’s navigate this late-capitalist hellscape together. 🔥 I’m a flat-fee, values-driven financial planner who helps people like you figure out what a good, livable version of success looks like—and how to get there with your money. Some of my clients are high earners in tech, wondering how much longer they can (or want to) stay in the game. Others are purpose-driven professionals—therapists, professors, nonprofit leaders—who never expected to make a ton, but still want clarity, security, and options. Whether you’re burned out and thinking about what’s next, or finally reaching stability and ready to make the most of it, I’m here to help you align your finances with your values, your goals, and your actual life. If that sounds like a fit, let’s talk.

I’m Paul Cipriano, the founder of Cipriano Wealth Management. I decided to launch Cipriano Wealth Management as a fee-only, independent registered investment advisor to eliminate the inherent conflicts of interest that investors are often forced to accept when engaging with a financial advisor. I offer comprehensive financial planning under a monthly subscription service. I also combine financial planning with ongoing investment management services and charge fees based on the value of the assets managed (AUM). I prioritize the development of your unique comprehensive financial plan as the foundation of our relationship. I am not singularly focused on gathering assets and refrain from managing investment portfolios unless we have developed a strategic plan for your assets. I worked on the trading desks at several large global investment banks for over 20 years where I was responsible for advising hedge funds and asset managers on portfolio management, investment strategy and market risk. I combine that experience with my training as a CFP® professional to help middle- and high-income families from working class backgrounds achieve their personal financial goals.

We focus on helping you make the most of your retirement resources in a tax-efficient way. Our specialty is retirement income planning, aka decumulation planning…how to best live off your nest egg and other sources of retirement income. We take a comprehensive approach to optimizing all of your available resources to help you most effectively achieve your retirement goals. Our holistic process integrates cohesive consideration of Social Security benefits, pensions, investments, real estate, annuities, insurance, work wages, etc. to maximize your retirement income. Furthermore, we carefully consider tax-minimization throughout each step of our process. We provide ongoing tax-efficient retirement planning and investment management.

Instead, our fee is a fair and transparent fixed annual amount.
