About Joseph Boughan, CFP®

Hi, I'm Joseph Boughan, Founder and Financial Planner of Parkmount Financial Partners.

I grew up in a small town in Massachusetts, surrounded by family and great teachers. I learned early on that if you work hard, stay uncompromisingly honest, and go the extra mile to take care of people and put their interests first, you're ahead of 90% of the rest of the world. That simple philosophy is woven into the foundation and purpose of my firm.

I bring deep experience from working with nationally top-ranked wealth management firms, where I spent several years practicing the principles of financial planning in a corporate environment and earned a reputation with clients for objectivity and empathy.

I ultimately decided to leave and start Parkmount Financial Partners because I believe that as an independent, fee-only advisor, I can better align with my clients' needs, free of the sales pressure and product emphasis often pushed in a corporate setting.

I am a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER® professional, a NAPFA-Registered Financial Advisor, and a member of the XY Planning Network and the Financial Planning Association® (FPA®). I specialize in working with corporate professionals and families planning for retirement, often beginning to work with clients around ages 45-60 to help them get a head start on their future, though I work with a variety of other clients as well. I also have a lot of experience with employees at public Biotechnology and Defense Contracting Firms.

We begin every relationship by listening. I spend a lot of time asking questions and understanding your thoughts, plans, worries, hopes, and dreams so we can build a plan that truly reflects what matters most to you.

FAQs

Who does Parkmount Financial Partners work with?
We work primarily with corporate professionals and families planning for retirement, often starting to work together between ages 45 and 60, though we serve a variety of clients at other life stages as well. We pay particular attention to executives with equity compensation, such as stock options and RSUs, helping integrate company stock into a broader financial plan.
Are you a fiduciary, and how does Parkmount get paid?
Yes, as a fee-only fiduciary advisor we are legally and ethically obligated to act in your best interest at all times. We do not earn commissions or kickbacks for selling financial products. Depending on the engagement, we may charge a percentage of assets under management for ongoing wealth management or offer a one-time financial plan, with fees clearly disclosed upfront.
Can you help me with stock options or RSUs from my employer?
Yes. Equity compensation is often a cornerstone of an executive's wealth, and we specialize in helping clients make the most of it. We provide guidance on when to exercise stock options, when to sell shares, and how to manage taxes, while coordinating your company stock with your overall portfolio so you don't become over-concentrated in one position.
