Bio

Throughout my career, I have learned some key lessons along the way. One of the biggest of those lessons is how hard it is for people of all financial backgrounds to get fiduciary level, customized advice in a conflict of interest free way. You get exactly that here. Personalized planning with no conflicts of interest, no product sales, no asset under management fees.

Personal Stuff

Southern California

I love traveling, exploring and trying new things. From ziplining through the jungles of Costa Rica, sailing off the coast of Croatia, visiting the Taj Mahal and getting lost in the canals of Venice, I love to take on an adventure. With that said, I am afraid of heights so I figured I might as well try my luck with paragliding during my last trip to Colombia. I survived...but am still afraid of heights!

10/10 recommend Vinee

I had a great experience working with Vinee. He was personable, knowledgeable, and professional. He took the time to understand my financial goals, explained my options clearly, and answered all of my questions with patience and expertise. I appreciated his honest advice and thoughtful recommendations and plan to follow-up with him in the future. I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking financial guidance.

Actionable retirement plan feedback

This was our second time working with Vinee. He provided helpful and actionable feedback for our retirement planning both during our meeting and in a followup email. We will reach out again in the future.

Five star financial planning advice !!!!

We cannot imagine a more comprehensive and personable experience of financial planning advice on the verge of beginning TIAA annuity payments than our recent one with Vinee Mehta. We expect to follow up based on his invaluable summary of our session. Five stars indeed !

Vinee is an experienced advisor. He is especially knowledgeable about taxes, and I can take his advice without any hesitation because I know it is correct. In addition, he is a true fiduciary, which I can say because I learn something new at every meeting when he gives me useful, practical advice regarding my finances. Highly recommend

Fantastic, thorough review of my finances! Vinee did a great job of decoding my finances and providing useful, actionable advice in a way that was easy to understand. He made sure I got the most out of my time, answered all of my questions, and then made sure to give some additional general recommendations. The meeting notes summarized our conversation perfectly and I'm really grateful for his help. Can't recommend him enough (and already have to friends!)

Excellent experience, highly recommend!

Very straightforward and knowledgeable! Easy to communicate with and had great suggestions, as well as the data and information to back them up. We are confident in our ability to put an end to AUM fees and manage our investments independently with Vinee’s assistance.

Vinee has understood my goals and has given me useful advice how to reach those goals. He has many years of experience and significant knowledge of the intricacies of money management and he is applying that to help individuals like myself with their "financial health". I wish I had known him ( as well as the company Nectarine)many years ago. I am not sure when this company started but its certainly a valuable asset for anybody looking for fee for service experienced fiduciary financial advisors.

Highly recommend Vinee

Met with Vinee twice on our retirement track, college funding, and portfolio optimization. The value was immediate and actionable. Within the meeting, Vinee identified several concrete improvements. Vinee's follow-up notes were thorough, well-organized, and included specific articles for further reading that provided a lot of value and confidence. Highly recommend for anyone seeking objective financial planning advice, particularly households navigating complex decisions.
