About Richard Davey, CPA, CFP®
Hi, I'm Richard Davey. I graduated Summa Cum Laude from the University of San Diego with a BS in Accountancy in the top 10 of my business school & was active in the Beta Gamma Sigma Honors Fraternity. I went to USD initially for a spot on the football team. This path was quickly ended by a serious neck injury I sustained during fall camp which ended my athletic career and gave me space to realize more academic potential.I graduated in the worst recession of the last 50 years in 2009 but was able to secure a job at Grant Thornton in San Francisco. I became a CPA & was promoted to senior associate in just 18 months. During this time, I also took graduate classes in the tax program at Golden Gate University. GT taught me at 24 to talk confidently with CFOs of major corporations and forced me to grow up quickly. Although I loved the culture and inspiring people, I soon realized that being an auditor wasn’t my dream & I set out to find a related career focused on forward looking work dealing with individuals in a more personal manner.
I shifted to personal finance & joined Waddell & Reed. I enjoyed Waddell and learned a great deal about investment & insurance products and how/when they could be appropriately used, but I was compelled to transition to an independent firm. I knew I needed to be 100% detached / uninfluenced from product sales. I found Marin Wealth Advisors where I spent 3 years getting my practice off the ground.
Rounding out 2016, my partner, predecessor advisor, & I decided to take the big step of starting our own firm... Fiduciary Financial Group with $0 under management. Just over 8 years later, we manage ~$715M for our clients.
My style - I’ll always tell you the truth about where you are & where you can expect to be. I won’t pull punches if you need tough love to spur life changes to better your financial outlook. You’ll know what you can realistically achieve at any given moment & know I'm shooting straight.

We Want Your Voice to be Heard
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.
