RoseRock-Foundations-Icon

As a fee-only financial advisor in Dallas, TX, RoseRock Foundations seeks to help clients build wiser wealth and live more fulfilling lives.  We are passionate about serving and consumed with delivering a superior client experience. We strive to serve with kindness, compassion, humility, and integrity.

Our Philosophy

Our Philosophy

Like you, we are ambitious and hard-working people, but we also seek a healthy work/life balance.  We emphasize enjoying life and spending time with friends and family and encourage clients to do the same.  What is the point of work if you don’t take time to enjoy the fruits of your labor!?!

Cutting-Edge Technology

Our personalized client experience is enhanced with cutting-edge technology that complements our fee-only financial planning and investment management processes.  Our clients have 24/7 access to customized RoseRock apps that provide a comprehensive view of your total financial picture and access to both summary and detailed views of the investment portfolio that we manage for you.

Clients Come First

Throughout our investment and financial planning process, there is a single theme that drives everything that we do: always putting the clients’ interests first.  As an independent, fee-only Investment Advisor, we work only for YOU. We don’t have competing corporate agendas or in-house products to sell. Nor are we paid commissions for selling products.

Our Value

Our value to clients is our willingness to listen, empathize, and then collaboratively construct a plan that gives essential context to decision making.  Using this context, we help guide the decision-making process and offer an objective voice to clients when making portfolio management, tax planning, risk management, and estate planning decisions.  

Evidence-Based Approach

RoseRock utilizes an “evidence-based approach” when choosing investments and building portfolios.  Attempting to pick stocks, time the market, and choose mutual funds based upon past performance has been proven to fail over the long-term.  Instead, we have chosen to employ an approach that takes decades of rigorous capital markets research and applies it to a practical investment process.
