Kathleen (Kate) Cote is a financial advisor and partner at Clear Insight Wealth Management, a wealth management firm for military families, government employees, and small business owners looking for a clear path to living their best lives.
Using a whole-team approach, Kate guides clients to define and create the life they want to live. When she helps someone do what they never thought they could, she feels like a rock star.
A military spouse with over 20 years of financial service industry experience, Kate holds a bachelor’s degree from Villanova University and the CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ and Registered Life Planner® designations. She also serves on the board of the Military Financial Advisor Association.
Kate knows that life is about the relationships we have with others, so she spends her time traveling to visit family and friends. She’s looking for friends and family that reside outside the U.S. so she can fulfill her other passion—seeing the world.
Wherever she happens to be, Kate loves visiting museums to learn about the people and history. Her favorite weekend activity is biking or hiking in the woods alongside the water. Most nights you’ll either find her cooking a gourmet meal or reading a book.
When Kate was a dresser in the graduate theater at Villanova, the theater became one of her passions. (She wouldn’t consider it a good year without a trip to the theater or a concert.)
Little known fact: Kate is descended from Nathaniel Colburn, who arrived in the U.S. in 1636 and was one of the founders of Dedham, Massachusetts.

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.
