| Seth Shepherd "Financial Advisor" didn't make sense to us, so we built Pillar Wealth to reflect people in 2026 instead of 1990. Don't be stuck in the past with an old, outdated formula that incentivizes laziness. Avoid any AUM model. Avoid someone labeled "Financial Advisor" who sells products like insurance. | Pillar Wealth | Franklin | CFP | Hourly, One-time planning fee |
