Yeske Buie Reviews (History / Overview):


Yeske Buie (YeBu) is an independent advisory firm that was founded by Elissa Buie, CFP® and Dr. Dave Yeske, CFP® who, combined between them, have over 50 years of experience in the financial industry.

AdvisoryHQ has reviewed a wide range of different financial advisory firms across the US and on the international level.

And we thought we’ve seen them all.  

But the AdvisoryHQ review team was greatly impressed with Yeske Buie, and the firm’s impressive culture.

The firm is built on the below concept:

“Live Big®  – It’s about the size of your life, not the size of your wallet®. Making the most of your wealth is as important as making it in the first place. You deserve the freedom that comes from working with a team that has the expertise and talent to guide you through the complex circumstances and choices that come with wealth – a team that is truly committed to your happiness and well being.”

It’s not everyday that you find an inspirational advisory firm that encourages its clients to live life to the fullest.

Or one that is not shy about making statements like: “We’re good people to think with, and we’re also good people to laugh with.”

The firm serves its clients, both on the East and West Coast through two offices located in San Francisco, CA (West Coast) and Vienna, VA (East Coast).

The company offers its clients a long-term investment philosophy that is rooted in empirically-validated strategies and that follows a disciplined process to achieving each client’s financial objectives.

The team uses a “grounded wisdom” approach to achieving each client’s long-term financial goals, which involves developing a personalized holistic picture of the client’s needs that includes cash flow and tax planning, risk management, retirement and other goal planning, investment planning and estate planning.
