Eddy Jurgielewicz has steadily worked his way from one coast to the other. After growing up in Charleston, SC, he spent 10 incredible years in New Orleans, LA right out of college, and now lives in sunny Los Angeles, CA.
He studied Psychology at the University of South Carolina and spent the early part of his working career as a high school teacher, including a one-year stint teaching English in Spain. Though he eventually left the classroom, Eddy brings an educator’s mindset to the work he does with his clients today.
As a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ professional, Eddy especially enjoys the ability to help clients make sense of their finances and structure their resources in a way that meaningfully supports an ideal life full of more “Yes!”. Eddy leans on his calm and level-headed demeanor to help guide clients, unafraid to throw in the occasional dad joke.
Eddy accumulated a little over 8 years of experience at a couple different firms before eventually joining Mike at Upbeat Wealth. Ultimately, the partnership was motivated by a deeply shared vision of simply doing their best work for great people – in a way that frees them to focus on quality over quantity and relationships over revenue.
When not working, Eddy loves to get outside with his wife and their pup, Stella. Living in Southern California means he’s likely to be found surfing, hiking, camping, or suffering through a CrossFit class. And the proximity to LAX means a travel adventure is always top of mind.

To make Wealthtender free for readers, we earn a nominal monthly fee from financial advisors and firms in exchange for marketing services (including being featured on this profile page), subject to terms of use. This compensation creates a natural conflict of interest when we favor their promotion over others. Wealthtender is not a client of these advisors or firms. Testimonials may not be representative of other clients’ experiences and do not guarantee future performance or success.
Wealthtender exists to help people discover trusted and authentic financial professionals and educators who may be a good fit based on their unique needs and circumstances.
Your honest reviews help people decide which financial professionals and educators may be best suited to their individual needs.
The majority of people trust reviews as much as personal recommendations, so what you write in your review should reflect your own opinion and experience.
Tips for Writing a Helpful Review
Be descriptive. Instead of just saying what you like or dislike, share why. What have you enjoyed most or least about your experience with the provider? Have they helped you overcome a difficult financial challenge or strengthened your knowledge about particular money matters? The more details, the better!
Be honest. Your rating and review should reflect your actual experience.
Stay relevant. Ensure your review is helpful to others by avoiding off-topic discussions or personal opinions not relevant to your direct experience.
Make your review easy to read. Reviews should be readable to others. Use proper grammar, avoid excessive capitalization or punctuation, and be sure to check your spelling.
Be yourself. Don’t post as, or pretend to be, someone else, and do not say you’re associated with a person or organization with which you are not.
Be nice. Don’t write abusive, hateful, threatening, or harassing content. Avoid personal threats, hate speech, obscenities, or inflammatory language.
Respect the privacy of others. Don’t post information that can be used to identify another individual or compromise their privacy.
