Wealthstream Advisors Team

For the fourth year in a row, Wealthstream has been named as a 2024 finalist for the University at Buffalo’s UB Fast 46 list.

The Wealthstream Advisors team is pleased to share that we have been named a 2024 Worth Leading Advisor.

Our team is proud to share that Wealthstream Advisors was recently named to the RIA Edge 100, a list “designed to surface a premier group of well-managed firms that are reinvesting in their businesses, maintaining a high level of client service and continuing to grow by design, not by default.”

Wealthstream Advisors was named one of the Best Places to Work for Financial Advisors in 2024 for the fourth year in a row by InvestmentNews. 

Our team at Wealthstream Advisors was excited to host Apollo Lupescu, Vice President at Dimensional Fund Advisors, for a special live event in New York on January 30. 

Equity-based compensation is a wonderful way to potentially share in the profits and appreciation of your company. Getting the most out of your equity compensation requires understanding key concepts, terms, and conditions related to this equity. It is also important to understand the tax implications and to make decisions with a long-term financial plan in mind. Not fully understanding what you have been granted or not having a plan can easily lead to mistakes, lost opportunities, and even outright losses.

The Wealthstream Advisors team was excited to learn that the firm has been named as a 2023 finalist for the University at Buffalo’s UB Fast 46 list for the third year in a row.

This competition honors University at Buffalo alumni who own or lead businesses, recognizing 46 (a nod to the institution’s founding in 1846) of the fastest-growing firms each year. 

Wealthstream Advisors President and founder Michael Goodman is a proud Buffalo alumnus.

According to the university’s official contest announcement, “eligible companies must have been in business since January 2019; have verifiable revenues of at least $100,000 or more in 2019 and 2020 and at least $250,000 in 2021; and the owner or leader must be a UB alum or former student.”

We extend our thanks to the State University of New York at Buffalo for this honor and look forward to seeing the full list of finalists unveiled at a September 14 event at UB’s Center for the Arts.

10b5-1 plans can be a great option when divesting from concentrated equity positions in a firm, potentially offering protection against insider trading charges while avoiding the perception of failing confidence.

In this Insight, we explain these plans, how they work, and how they will be affected by new SEC rules changes.
