Today, I’m talking with Tom Ruggie, the founder and CEO of Ruggie Wealth Management – the flagship company of independent RIA, Destiny Wealth Partners, which has surpassed $1B in managed assets and is recognized among Forbes 250 Fastest-Growing RIA Firms.
The funny thing is, it’s actually our shared passion for sports collectables that brought Tom and I together – which is a major focal point for today’s conversation.
Not only did I want to better understand how Tom scaled his firm and eventually transitioned into a family office style of practice, but I wanted to hear about his sports card collecting journey and how he combined that passion with his wealth management business.
3 of the biggest insights from Tom Ruggie…
- How Tom built a multi-million-dollar portfolio of rare collectables and memorabilia – including a signed 1952 Mickey Mantle card and an iconic pair of Muhammad Ali trunks from his George Foreman fight.
- Why the sports collectibles market is an alternative asset class that you need to understand for your clients – and Tom’s expert tips for building a diversified portfolio like his, which has skyrocketed in value.
- The major differences between a regular wealth management firm and a family office – and how Tom has carved out a niche that serves ultra-high-net-worth entrepreneurs.
