Words to Live By

Probability is not a mere computation of odds on the dice or more complicated variants; it is the acceptance of the lack of certainty in our knowledge and the development of methods for dealing with our ignorance.

About

Bill has dedicated his career to maximizing the probability of successful outcomes for his clients – focusing on the removal of unnecessary complexity, risks, and fees over his 20 years of investing and wealth services experiences. With a $1 million household minimum, each of Bill's clients receives a multi-expert team approach, including senior wealth planners and client experience professionals, with tailored investing and personalized wealth planning solutions.

Bill has a diverse multi-asset class investing background and has been responsible for the management of hedge funds and a mutual fund. The mutual fund business started by Bill was acquired by Fortress Investment Group (FIG), after which he served as a Managing Director at Fortress. Bill founded the independent RIA, WealthFactor, in 2017 – which was merged into Farther in 2022.

Bill resides in Lake Oswego, OR, with his wife, Nicole; three sons, Henry, Thayer, and Griffin; and Goldendoodle, Goldie. He enjoys traveling, spending time at the lake (Lake Oswego), and coaching youth sports.
