Not sure which service fits?
That is precisely what the complimentary Discovery Meeting is for. We will listen first, then tell you plainly which — if any — of our services would serve you. You can also schedule a complimentary 30-minute Introductory Consultation with Tony Adamo or Chris Ritacca. Meet by video from anywhere, or in person at the IFP office in Tampa (by appointment only), or at your home or place of business..
Who We Serve
Focused on the clients we can serve best
We partner with CEOs, business owners, university faculty, divorcees, and professionals who want to retire happy without worry. The profiles below describe the situations our planning is designed for; the considerations listed are the ones that typically arise in each — raised here so you can judge the fit for yourself.
CEOs & Executives
Senior roles come with compensation structures that demand active management: equity awards on vesting schedules, deferred compensation elections, and employer stock that can quietly come to dominate a balance sheet.
- Concentrated employer-stock risk and diversification strategy
- Equity compensation: RSUs, options, and ESPP decisions
- Deferred compensation election timing
- Maximizing employer benefits within an overall plan
- Tax planning for high and variable income years
Business Owners
For owners, the business is usually the largest asset and the largest risk at once. Planning has to serve the household and the enterprise together — long before any exit is on the table.
- Succession and exit planning, coordinated with business transition consultants
- Liquidity-event preparation and post-sale investing
- Retirement plan selection for owners and key employees
- Separating personal wealth from business risk
- Coordination with CPAs and business HR services
University Faculty
Academic careers come with distinctive retirement structures — institutional retirement plans, sabbaticals, and phased retirements — that reward early, specialized attention.
- University retirement plan allocation and supplemental savings
- Coordinating institutional benefits with personal accounts
- Phased retirement and sabbatical income planning
- Consolidating accounts from prior institutions
- Retirement income design for long academic retirements
Individuals Navigating Divorce
Divorce is a financial event as much as a legal one. Clear-eyed analysis during the process — and a rebuilt plan afterward — can shape your financial life for decades.
- Understanding the full marital balance sheet
- Evaluating settlement options and their long-term effects
- Coordination with family law attorneys
- Rebuilding budgets, accounts, and beneficiary designations
- A forward financial plan for your next chapter
Professionals & Retirees
Whether you are building toward retirement or already drawing on what you built, the goal is the same: retire happy, without worry — with income you understand and a plan you can follow.
- Retirement income and withdrawal sequencing
- Social Security claiming strategy
- Roth conversion and tax-bracket management
- Staying on plan through market ups and downs — without emotional mistakes
- Longevity and long-term-care risk planning
Families Seeking Long-Term Financial Confidence
As listed on our Financial Planning page — families who value personalized advice, fiduciary guidance, and a boutique experience built around relationships, not sales quotas.
- Planning aligned with family, lifestyle, and legacy objectives
- Preparing for retirement with confidence and clarity
- Seeking a second opinion on a financial strategy
- Coordinating planning across life transitions

Tampa, Florida
Fiduciary Wealth Advisor in Tampa, Florida
Tampa is where much of Tampa Bay goes to work — corporate headquarters, hospitals, universities, and a growing base of privately held companies. For the executives and business owners who run them, the financial questions are rarely simple: equity that vests on a schedule, a business that is both your income and your largest asset, and benefits decisions made once a year that echo for decades. We serve Tampa clients in a fiduciary capacity — advice legally and ethically bound to your best interest.
Wealth Advisors Who Care serves Tampa and clients across the Tampa Bay area. Meet by video from anywhere, or in person at the IFP office in Tampa (by appointment only), or at your home or place of business. — so a Discovery Meeting fits a working schedule on either side of the bay. Our approach is process before products: we build your Financial Blueprint™ first, then select investments and strategies to serve it. We are transparent and objective about fees, costs, investment selections, and strategies.
Where we meet Tampa clientsMeet by video from anywhere, or in person at the IFP office in Tampa — 3030 N. Rocky Point Drive West, Suite 700, Tampa, FL 33607 (by appointment only) — or at your home or place of business.

Why a Fiduciary
Objectivity. Integrity. Fiduciary.
A fiduciary advisor must put your interests first — a legal and ethical duty, not a marketing phrase. For Tampa professionals whose compensation and benefits are complex, that duty matters in every recommendation.
A Duty to You First
We serve our clients in a fiduciary capacity through IFP Advisors, LLC, a registered investment adviser. Recommendations are made for your benefit — not to sell a product.
Transparent Fees
We are transparent and objective about fees, costs, investment selections, and strategies — disclosed in writing before you engage, with published engagement plans on our Services page.
Process Before Products
Your strategy is designed first; investments are selected to serve it — never the reverse. That discipline helps you avoid emotional mistakes and stay on the path to financial freedom.

Why a Fiduciary
Objectivity. Integrity. Fiduciary.
In retirement, most financial decisions are hard to undo — a claiming decision, a withdrawal sequence, an annuity purchase. A fiduciary duty means each recommendation must serve your interest first.
A Duty to You First
We serve our clients in a fiduciary capacity through IFP Advisors, LLC, a registered investment adviser. Recommendations are made for your benefit — not to sell a product.
Transparent Fees
We are transparent and objective about fees, costs, investment selections, and strategies — disclosed in writing before you engage, with published engagement plans on our Services page.
Process Before Products
Your strategy is designed first; investments are selected to serve it — never the reverse. Your Financial Blueprint™ comes before any product discussion.
Retirement, Planned Carefully
For St. Petersburg retirees and those approaching retirement
Whether you retired to St. Petersburg or are counting down the final working years here, these are the questions our planning most often addresses.
Professionals & Retirees
The goal is to retire happy, without worry — with income you understand and a plan you can follow through market ups and downs.
- Retirement income and withdrawal sequencing
- Social Security claiming strategy
- Longevity and long-term-care risk planning
Families Seeking Confidence
Families who value personalized advice, fiduciary guidance, and a boutique experience built around relationships, not sales quotas.
- Planning aligned with family, lifestyle, and legacy objectives
- Estate & legacy planning strategies
- A second opinion on an existing financial strategy
Business Owners
St. Petersburg's independent shops, galleries, and professional practices are often their owners' largest asset — planned together with the household.

- Separating personal wealth from business risk
- Retirement plan selection for owners and key employees

Clearwater is where many Tampa Bay families put down roots — and where many people choose to retire, drawn by the Gulf coast and an established, year-round community.

We serve Clearwater clients in a fiduciary capacity — advice legally and ethically bound to your best interest.

Wealth Golden Nuggets
Short, practical insights on investing, retirement, and the markets — written by Tony Adamo, AIF® and Chris Ritacca, AIF®. These are the articles we share with clients and subscribers, collected in one place. Small nuggets, gathered regularly, that add up to a clearer financial picture.

Why Time Matters More Than Timing
If you invested $100 in 1928, where would it have grown most — tucked in a mattress, lent to the U.S. government, or riding in the stock market through a century of crashes, wars, and uncertainty? The difference between those decisions is dramatic, and the lesson still matters today: you don't need a time machine to benefit from compounding. You just need a plan and the patience to stick with it.
Inside this nugget
- Three choices. One century. A powerful lesson about time and compounding.
- What nearly a century of investing reveals about discipline and diversification
- Why the dollars in a mattress stay the same — while their value doesn't
