About

FlightPath Financial Planning is an independent, state-registered advisory firm that serves individual clients, including both typical retail investors and some high-net-worth households, offering discretionary investment management alongside comprehensive financial planning. The firm manages roughly $11.1 million across a small number of client relationships and provides both ongoing investment management and standalone financial planning engagements.

The firm describes a strong academic approach to investing, favoring passively managed, diversified, low-cost portfolios implemented primarily with no-load mutual funds and ETFs, with prebuilt models that may be customized to a client’s risk profile, time horizon, and tax considerations. It accepts discretionary authority to implement and rebalance portfolios on clients’ behalf while allowing reasonable client-imposed restrictions.

Distinctive features disclosed in the brochure include operating as a sole advisor across multiple offices, offering flat-fee annual planning with monthly billing as well as hourly planning options in addition to AUM-based management, and an identified annual inflationary adjustment to planning fees. The firm also discloses a referral arrangement with an unaffiliated divorce and mediation practice owned by the advisor’s spouse and the use of standing letters of authorization for client-directed transfers, both noted as potential conflicts that are addressed in its disclosures.

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.
