Our Approach
At Brookstone Wealth Management, we apply the Situational Investing methodology to everything we do. Financial Fingerprint™ was developed by our investment management partners, Meld Financial.

We get to know our clients, and we design an investment strategy that will help you get where you want to go.
Financial planning is a journey, not a destination, and Financial Fingerprint™ ensures you start on the right track.
