Frequently Asked Questions

Here are answers to our most commonly received questions.

Am I a good fit?

Our clients have a wide range of investable assets and net worth and work in many different industries. While we do not maintain a set ‘minimum’ of investable assets to work together, we work with clients who either have already accumulated substantial assets or are very committed to doing so. We do have a ‘no jerks’ policy which means a pleasant attitude and professional partnership is required regardless of asset level.

Who should I contact with questions?

Send an email to info@wendellcharles.com and we will route it to the appropriate team member and reach out to you promptly.

You can also call our main office line and our team will ask a few questions and then route you to the appropriate team member.

Can we meet in-person, online, or both?

We offer quarterly in-person meetings in the Los Angeles area, Chicago, and Davenport, Iowa. All other meetings are held virtually via Zoom.

What are your fees?

Most commonly, the cost is 1% of assets we manage on your behalf. Financial planning typically ranges from $2k to $4k per custom plan. And for some products such as insurance, commissions are built in and fully disclosed.

How do we get started working together?
