Biography


Hi! I’m Gabriel Kaplan, CFP® / CPA and I started Wealth Habits because I believe that anyone who wants financial planning should have access to it. The financial world has changed in the last 10 years and many of the old paradigms have shifted. Education and living costs have increased while compensation have maintained stable. Members of Generations X, Y and Z who want to achieve financial independence are forced to start planning early. I can work with you to relieve stress about money by helping you clarify your goals and create an action plan to achieve them. I provide integrated financial planning through fee-only services. Since I don’t sell any products, I am free of the conflicts of interest that can arise from those arrangements. I only answer to you. I'm uniquely qualified as a Certified Public Accountant (CPA), Certified Financial Planner™ (CFP®), as well as +10 years of investing experience. Understanding financial planning, taxes, and investments provides me with the technical knowledge need to understand your issues on a deeper level, enabling you to focus on what's really important in life.
