Money & Clarity
Founded in 2013, Money & Clarity operates as a registered investment adviser in Ohio. Dan Cuprill, a CFP® professional, leads the firm alongside Wes Cuprill, Fred Taylor, and Operations Director Trena Powell. The practice manages wealth for individuals, trusts, estates, and business entities, with a stated emphasis on financial planning that addresses tax, retirement, and investment management in a unified framework. The firm deliberately excludes speculative strategies such as market timing, individual stock selection, and cryptocurrency — a stance that shapes its entire deployment model. Services center on personalized financial plans, regular portfolio reviews, and educational resources including published books like "Defuse: 7 Steps to Protecting Your 401k" and "Retirement Rescue: Seven Lessons to Save Your Retirement." Client assets are managed through advisory rather than brokerage relationships, and the firm maintains no product-pushing sales culture. Geographic focus remains U.S.-based clients, with service capabilities extending to states where the firm is registered or exempt. Team size is not publicly disclosed. Fred Taylor operates from Georgia through his affiliated coaching practice, Professional Associates Wealth Coaching, Inc., while Trena Powell supports client operations remotely from Florida. No adjacent vehicles — such as philanthropic foundations or real-asset arms — are disclosed. The firm's only known operational footprint beyond direct advisory services is its published content and educational workshops, including seminars taught by Fred Taylor. Money & Clarity’s structure differs from most RIAs in its explicit, public refusal to engage in speculative asset classes that dominate advisor conversations. The Cuprill team positions financial planning as analogous to health maintenance — requiring continuous, tailored diagnosis rather than product-driven interventions — and uses published books, radio appearances, and educational coaching to reinforce that stance.

Frequently asked questions
Who runs investment decisions at Money & Clarity?
Dan Cuprill, CFP®, leads the firm's investment advisory decisions. His approach explicitly avoids speculative strategies like stock picking, market timing, and cryptocurrency. Wes Cuprill, also a CFP®, serves as an investment advisor representative, working to strengthen client relationships and service delivery. Fred Taylor contributes through his wealth coaching practice, though his role in portfolio-level investment decisions is not separately disclosed.
What asset classes does Money & Clarity avoid, and why?
The firm publicly refuses to engage in individual stock picking, market timing, or cryptocurrency. Dan Cuprill describes this as a matter of fiduciary discipline — speculative strategies are inconsistent with the firm's holistic, long-term planning philosophy. The posture functions as a client filter, selecting for households that prioritize financial education and tax-aware planning over transactional trading.
Is Money & Clarity a single-family office or a traditional RIA?
Money & Clarity is a registered investment adviser, not a family office. It advises individuals, trusts, estates, and business entities, and its services are delivered on a fee-based advisory model. There is no indication of a single-family or multi-family office structure in its disclosures.
Does the firm offer tax or legal advice directly?
No. The firm's regulatory disclosures explicitly state that Money & Clarity does not provide tax or legal advice. Clients are directed to consult their own tax advisors or attorneys before implementing any strategies discussed. The firm integrates tax-aware planning into its financial advice but draws a hard boundary around legal and accounting professional services.
What is Fred Taylor's relationship to Money & Clarity?
Fred Taylor is a CFP® professional listed on the firm's team page. He is also the founder and President of Professional Associates Wealth Coaching, Inc., based in Marietta, Georgia. His role with Money & Clarity appears to include investor coaching and educational content delivery, while his separate coaching practice operates independently. The exact legal or partnership structure between the two entities is not publicly detailed.
