About

VIP Wealth Advisors serves individuals, high‑net‑worth clients, and business owners, providing investment management, ongoing and project-based financial planning, and tax return preparation as an add‑on service. The firm operates as a fee‑only adviser and also facilitates referrals to third‑party professionals when needed.

The firm’s investment work is grounded in asset allocation and modern portfolio theory and commonly uses passive vehicles, ETFs, third‑party managers, and model portfolios (including participation in the Altruist Model Marketplace). Clients may grant either discretionary or non‑discretionary authority for account management, and as of March 11, 2026 the firm reported $126,099,231 in AUM with the majority held in non‑discretionary accounts (approximately $93.6M non‑discretionary vs. $32.5M discretionary).

Noteworthy aspects include a fee structure that relies on fixed monthly, fixed project, and hourly fees rather than a percentage‑of‑AUM billing model, and the firm’s offering of tax preparation alongside planning and investment management. The adviser also cites specialized credentials in financial planning, equity compensation, retirement plans, and tax representation, and manages a relatively large amount of assets for a small client base.

VIP Wealth Advisors

You've built something meaningful. Maybe it's a startup, a career in tech, a creative practice, or a business that finally found its footing. But with that growth comes complexity, and suddenly, your financial life doesn't feel like it's working for you. You're fielding K-1s, juggling RSUs, navigating AMT surprises, and wondering what to do with all these "opportunities" no one prepared you for. That's where I come in. I'm Mark Stancato, CFP®, EA, ECA, CRPS®, and founder of VIP Wealth Advisors. I work with people whose lives don't follow a straight line - tech professionals, business owners, executives, creatives. People with vision and drive but who don't have the time or desire to untangle spreadsheets, decode tax law, or second-guess every financial move. They want clarity. Confidence. A partner they can trust with the stuff that keeps them up at night. I didn't come from Wall Street. I came from the startup world, the stage, the grind of building something from nothing. I've bootstrapped businesses, advised founders through life-changing equity events, and helped creatives transform uncertain income into real wealth. I've been in rooms where ambition collides with identity, where money isn't just about numbers - it's about freedom, leverage, and making sure this all means something. That's the lens I bring to financial planning. At VIP Wealth Advisors, I combine deep tax expertise, thoughtful investment management, and white-glove service into one integrated experience. I file your returns, manage your assets, and help you make smart decisions with long-term impact. I'm not here to sell you products or overwhelm you with jargon. My purpose is to help you breathe easier, sleep better, and take action - knowing someone's watching the details. VIP stands for Very Intentional Planning, because that's what your life deserves. If you've outgrown generic advice and want a true partner who understands both the strategy and the story behind your success - we should talk. This isn't just planning. It's designing a life on your terms, with clarity and confidence at every step.

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.
