About Bryant Rivera Colón

Hi, I'm Bryant Rivera Colón. I help busy professionals and families bring purpose to their money, so your finances stop feeling like a pile of separate decisions and start working together toward the life you actually want.

I’m a fee-only advisor based in southeast Michigan and serving clients nationwide. I provide financial planning and investment management: no commissions, no product sales.

I’m an engineer-turned financial planner. Before transitioning into planning, I worked as a software engineer, building systems that had to work in the real world, not just on paper. That approach shapes how I plan: clarity over complexity, simple systems over willpower, and decisions grounded in what matters most to you.

I’m Puerto Rico–born and bilingual, and part of my mission is to make high-quality financial guidance more accessible, especially for the Latino community, without the shame, jargon, or “one-size-fits-all” advice.

Latino households make up a big and growing part of the U.S., but they’re still underrepresented in financial planning. CFP Board’s self-reported data shows about 2.8% of CFP® professionals identify as Hispanic/Latino. And among CFP® professionals who list their languages, about 93% list only English—Spanish is the most common second language among the small multilingual group.

About Fiduciary Financial Advisors

Fiduciary Financial Advisors is an independent financial planning and wealth management firm founded on the core principles of combining lower-cost investment management with robust financial and retirement planning to help our clients navigate financial life.

What "Money Con Propósito" Means in Practice

You’re working hard, trying to make smart moves, and you want your money to mean something: security for your family, freedom to choose, the ability to help others, and the option to live life on your terms.

But the more life grows, the noisier money gets. Every decision can turn into a tradeoff you’re not sure you’re making correctly:

▪️ Should we invest more or pay down debt?

▪️ Can we help family and still hit our goals?

▪️ Are we missing something on taxes?

▪️ What happens if we move between the mainland and Puerto Rico?

That’s where Money con Propósito comes in.

In this story, you’re the hero: you’re building the life.

My role is the guide: to bring clarity, structure, and a plan you can actually follow.

Here’s the simple path:

1. Define what “purpose” means for you (security, freedom, family, impact, options)

2. Build an integrated plan that connects cash flow, investing, and tax-aware decisions

3. Implement a system: automation + guardrails + reviews, so progress doesn’t depend on willpower

The goal isn’t perfection. It’s momentum: helping reduce avoidable surprises and increasing confidence in day-to-day decisions.

Avoid common pitfalls: Without a clear plan, it’s easy to drift for years: overpaying taxes, making big decisions in the dark, and realizing too late that your money was busy… but not building what you wanted.

Areas I Commonly Help With

✔️ Cash flow and “where should the next dollar go?”

✔️ Investment strategy + behavior guardrails (so you don’t sabotage your own plan)

✔️ Tax-aware planning and decision support around big choices

✔️ Retirement planning and long-term goal mapping

✔️ Planning around real estate and uneven income (when relevant)

✔️ U.S.–Puerto Rico cross-border planning (planning considerations for people living, working, or moving between PR and the mainland)
