About Earned Wealth

Earned is the comprehensive, tax-smart wealth building solution exclusively for doctors, their families, and their practices. With a wide range of individual and practice solutions, we strive to be the only financial partner doctors need. By integrating our personal and practice solutions into an overall strategy, we can fully optimize our clients’ wealth potential and help them achieve better financial outcomes.

Our financial solutions are backed by fiduciary experts and modern, tax-smart technology – including our iOS app, which provides clients with a clear view of their financial trajectory and the value Earned is adding to their portfolio.

We have secured $200M to fund an aggressive acquisition strategy that will accelerate this vision. We are backed by leading growth equity and venture capital investors including Summit Partners, Silversmith Capital, Juxtapose, Hudson Structured, and Breyer Capital.

There will be an opportunity to develop strategies to optimally close business instead of coming into a “cast in stone” structure and process.
