About

Brilliant Financial Strategies LLC provides portfolio management, financial planning, and pension consulting services to individual clients as well as business and retirement-plan clients. The firm manages roughly $22.1 million in discretionary assets and also delivers both one-time and ongoing planning, including a real estate cost segregation tax-planning offering.

The firm’s investment approach is grounded in modern portfolio theory and a long-term trading horizon, with each client documented by an Investment Policy Statement and regular portfolio monitoring and quarterly reporting. Advisors typically seek discretionary authority to implement asset allocation using mutual funds, equities, ETFs, and fixed income (including inflation-protected securities), and emphasize tailoring portfolios to documented risk tolerances.

What is distinctive about this firm compared with many solo independent advisers is its formal ties to accounting and insurance-related businesses and the inclusion of accountants among related personnel, in addition to actively providing pension consulting to 401(k) and other pension/profit-sharing plans—services that are less common among peers. The firm also reports $10 million in assets under advisement and offers specialized tax-oriented services, indicating a mix of advisory and consulting work beyond standard individual portfolio management.

Warmer provides personalized recommendations and introductions to independent fiduciary advisors. We do not supervise advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.

Each advisor listed on our site is an independent fiduciary responsible for their own advice. Warmer may receive fees from advisors for participation or referrals; these fees are paid by advisors and do not affect the fees clients pay for advisory services.

For advisor listings, we rely on sources including public filings and data provided by advisors, and we cannot guarantee that all information is current or accurate. Please review an advisor's Form ADV and do your own diligence before entering into an advisory relationship.
