 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve had an exceptional experience working with Hanke & Apolonio Wealth Advisors. From the very beginning, their team demonstrated a deep understanding of financial planning, blending technical expertise with a truly personalized approach. Manny Apolonio, in particular, has been instrumental in helping me navigate key financial decisions with clarity and confidence. He takes the time to explain complex concepts in a way that’s easy to understand and always aligns strategies with my long-term goals and personal values. His ability to combine financial acumen with a coaching mindset has made a huge difference in how I think about wealth management. The firm as a whole operates with transparency, integrity, and a genuine commitment to their clients’ financial well-being. I highly recommend Hanke & Apolonio to anyone looking for a wealth management team that goes beyond just numbers—they truly care about their clients’ success.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Why 5 stars? The answer, for me, is easy. Hanke and Co. knows what they are doing. No need for a long dissertation on their quality of work. They are  extremely knowledgeable and keep up with the latest issues and developments in their field. Bedside manner--this may be an old fashioned concept but it is important to me. I want my financial managers to be nice and caring people. The staff are personable and accommodating. They make me feel at ease and they are very reassuring. Trust with a capital "T"---- I truly believe Hanke and Co. have my back and are looking out for my best interests. I am a retiree and my money is my guarantee of a comfortable future and I trust Hanke and Co. to take care of me. It's  important to connect with the right financial managers as money is a very personal issue. Hanke and Co. works for me and they might be right for you.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. If you're questioning your first steps--don't hesitate, it doesn't take much effort to schedule a consultation. Manny is someone I know I can trust, and when it comes to my financial future, I don't place that trust lightly. After 2020 upended my seemingly stable industry, I knew it was time to reevaluate, take stock, plan, and identify my goals. I now have more confidence in my financial future, and look forward to my consultations.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Six months ago, I landed my dream job and I started making significantly more money. With adulting came anxiety - was I saving enough for retirement? Was I making the right investment choices? Should I put some of my money into the stock market? Manny helped me pick the right funds for my 401k, made sure my taxes were done properly, and set me up with a savings program. He noticed that I was putting some of my savings into the stock market through private brokers before I had maximized my 401k, so we were able to take some action and sell some of the stocks which had taken a loss to avoid tax penalties. I’ve never hired a professional to do anything for me before so this was new for me. I feel a lot more comfortable talking about money now after talking to these guys. In general I feel more confident about my finances. I feel like I am empowered to make the right decisions regarding my savings and investments because Manny educated me on where the greatest tax penalties are. Highly recommend even if you're not a millionaire - there's no way you won't save money with Hanke & Co.

FAQs

Everything you need to know about financial freedom coaching before getting started.

How do I know if financial coaching is right for me?

If you want expert financial guidance but prefer to manage your own investments, financial coaching is a great fit. It’s designed for professionals, families, and retirees who want to make informed financial decisions without committing to a full-time financial advisor.

What’s the difference between financial coaching and wealth management?

Financial coaching gives you the tools, knowledge, and strategies to manage your finances with confidence. Wealth management is a hands-on service where we actively manage your investments for you. If you want guidance but still prefer to stay in control, coaching is the better option.

Do I need a minimum amount of assets to work with you?

No. Unlike traditional wealth management, our financial coaching program is designed for professionals and families in the accumulation phase who are building wealth. You don’t need a certain amount of assets to benefit from our expertise.

What if I need more sessions after my initial package?

You can always purchase additional sessions as needed. We offer a flexible structure so you can get the support you need, when you need it without unnecessary long-term commitments.

Will you handle my investments for me?

No. This program is designed for self-managed investors. We provide expert guidance, strategy, and financial planning, but you’ll be responsible for implementing our recommendations.

Do you cover tax and estate planning?

Yes. We provide strategic tax planning advice and work closely with estate planning attorneys to help ensure your wealth is protected and transferred according to your wishes.

How is financial coaching different from working with a financial advisor?

With coaching, you stay in control while we help you develop a strategy, improve your financial habits, and gain confidence in your decision-making. A financial advisor, on the other hand, may actively manage your investments and handle financial decisions on your behalf.

Can I upgrade to full wealth management later?

Absolutely. If you decide you want hands-on investment management, you can transition to our All-Inclusive Wealth Management services at any time.

What if I already have a financial advisor?

That’s great! Many of our clients work with us for financial coaching while still maintaining a relationship with a financial advisor. We provide objective, strategy-focused guidance without managing your investments directly, so you get an additional layer of expert insight.
