The person behind the advice.
TAGStone is independent and fee-only by design, so the advice answers only to you. That advice comes from William Reid Culp III, CFA, CFP, a UNC Kenan-Flagler graduate who works with entrepreneurs, families, foundations, and retirement plans to turn financial success into lasting wealth.
Meet ReidAdvice defined by how we are structured, not what we sell.
Our structure reduces the conflicts that compromise most financial advice and shapes a disciplined, tax-efficient process. These four principles guide the recommendations we make.
Fiduciary standard
Held to a fiduciary standard, obligated to act in our clients' best interest.
Fee-only
We are paid by you, not by commissions or product sales.
Goals-based
Your plan is built around your life, not a benchmark.
Independent
No parent bank and no proprietary products, which helps minimize conflicts of interest.
