Team
Fewer people. More conviction.
Grounded Gus is built by a small team at Grounded One. We hire slowly, on purpose, and we believe the best financial work is the kind that gets done quietly, in service of a real person.

Nick Tilli
Founder, Grounded OneCFP® professional1
Nick founded Grounded One to build the kind of practice he wished existed when he started in financial services — one that treats people like adults, says “I don't know” out loud, and does the unglamorous work between meetings.
Grounded Gus is the most public expression of that philosophy: a guide, not a salesperson; plain-spoken, not showy; restrained on purpose. The harder work — and the reason for the company — is the Personal Financial Practice that sits behind it at Grounded Wealth.
What's next
More names will land here, slowly.
We're in a quiet rollout, and the team is small by design. When we add Practitioners and engineers, they'll show up on this page — not before. If you'd like to talk to us in the meantime, the door is at /contact.
