Chris Bauchle, MSFS®, CFP®, RICP® 

I'm an Indianapolis-based CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ and career firefighter specializing in working with firefighters and other public service professionals. After earning a Master of Science in Financial Services with a concentration in Retirement Planning, I joined Wellington Wealth Strategies to serve as a fiduciary financial advisor.

Fiduciary: Bound both legally and ethically

to act in the best interest of others.

My determination to help others began in 2006 as an Air Force firefighter. Since then, my focus has remained unchanged.

  • I am passionate about helping clients optimize everything that can be optimized in their financial lives. I believe being rich > looking rich and every family should have an advocate for making calculated financial decisions.

  • I hold the Retirement Income Certified Professional designation and enjoy simplifying complex strategies for those who seek financial independence and the ability to retire early. I have personal experience with tax optimization, pension maximization, veteran's benefits, and rental real estate.

  • While investing involves risk, not taking action to properly manage your money is RISKY. My goal is to establish a long-term relationship with each client to guide them through getting the most out of the ever-changing world of finance.
