Achieve Financial Clarity, Confidence, and Freedom

“If You're Serious About Your Money, We'll Help You Be Smart with It.”

At Fortress Wealth Architects, we don’t follow the standard Wall Street playbook. Unlike many financial institutions, we don’t simply accumulate your wealth and dole it out slowly over time. Instead, we empower our clients to achieve their maximum financial potential by teaching them how money really works and helping them coordinate every aspect of their financial lives into a powerful, integrated strategy.

We primarily serve business owners, high-income professionals, and dedicated first responders—people who are committed to building, protecting, and enjoying their wealth to its fullest.

Our Story: A Legacy of Innovative Financial Strategies for Your Success

Fortress Wealth Architects was founded by John Baker, whose deep roots in innovative financial strategies began with his father—a successful estate planner inspired to develop the revolutionary Lifetime Economic Acceleration Process (LEAP). Growing up immersed in groundbreaking financial philosophies, John combined his unique background in financial education and real-world business experience to approach wealth planning without traditional industry biases.

Today, our team embodies these innovative principles, using a macroeconomic approach to guide clients towards financial clarity, stability, and lasting success.

Our Philosophy: Ensuring Every Financial Decision Enhances Your Wealth

Most financial advisors are focused on products. We focus on education and strategy. Using a comprehensive macroeconomic model, we examine how your protection, savings, and investment decisions interact—revealing hidden inefficiencies and powerful opportunities.

Think of your financial life as a symphony. Our role is ensuring every instrument is perfectly tuned and coordinated, creating harmony and maximizing your financial potential.

Our emphasis on protection first allows you the freedom to confidently pursue growth opportunities, knowing your foundation is secure.

How We Empower You Financially: Transform Your Financial Clarity and Confidence

Our process moves beyond traditional financial planning. We transform your scattered financial decisions—the “financial junk drawer”—into a unified, efficient, and powerful strategy.

Our approach helps you:

  • Coordinate every financial decision to maximize efficiency.

  • Protect your wealth from market volatility and tax burdens.

  • Generate reliable income streams through strategically structured investments.

  • Build your legacy while fully enjoying your wealth during your lifetime.

  • Break free from conventional financial limitations like the 4% withdrawal rule.

  • Automatically capture and maximize every dollar flowing through your economy.

Our Core Values: Principles That Put Your Financial Success First

We believe in teaching people how money really works.

Other firms push products or chase returns. Our wealth planning advisors focus on empowering our clients through genuine education and understanding.

We believe in doing the right thing.

We always place our clients' interests first and approach every interaction authentically. Our wealth planning advisors won’t recommend anything until its value is clearly demonstrated through careful analysis.

We value integration and harmony in financial planning.

Every financial decision impacts others, so we refuse to look at elements in isolation. Instead, we coordinate all aspects of your financial life into a unified, efficient strategy.

We believe in continuous learning and collaboration.

Our wealth planning advisors invest heavily in education and participate in professional think tanks, ensuring we remain at the forefront of financial innovation.

We value balance over blind accumulation.

True financial success isn’t merely accumulating assets—it’s about protecting what you have while maximizing your enjoyment and fulfillment throughout your life.

Most importantly, we believe in building relationships based on trust and understanding.

Our advisors take the time to truly understand your unique situation, clearly explaining complex concepts without jargon or hidden agendas.

Who We Serve: Supporting Individuals Dedicated to Building Lasting Wealth

Our clients include dedicated business owners, high-income professionals, firefighters, and medical device representatives—individuals who are serious about their financial future and committed to protecting and growing their wealth.

  • Understand and strategically coordinate their financial decisions.

  • Protect their wealth while maintaining strong growth potential.

  • Develop tax-efficient income streams.

  • Create meaningful, lasting legacies.

  • Take complete control of their financial future.

We take particular pride in supporting first responders, recognizing their immense contributions by safeguarding their financial futures.
