About Neal Richards

Neal began his career in 2007 working in Bend during the financial crisis and the great recession for Northwestern Mutual, a Life Insurance company. This experience helped refine his business as well as his personal financial planning. In 2012 Neal began working for Wells Fargo Advisors where he worked helping clients invest and plan. His experience at Wells Fargo Advisors amalgamized his investment philosophy as well as his conviction in the value of planning over product. In April of 2017, Neal joined Cascade Financial Strategies, an independent RIA, where his practice blossomed into what it is today.

Neal and his wife Lindsey, married since 2006, reside in Bend Oregon where he and his four kids (Lydia, Thomas, Hazel, and Miles) 20 chickens, 2 rabbits, 2 cats, 1 dog, a goose, 10 ducks, and a fish share life together. When he isn't working or at home he can be found running and biking the local trails and training for triathlons at the pool.

Who he is can be reflected in the people in his life he is most thankful for:

His wife and kids: I'm not sure where you end, and I begin.

His mom and dad, Janet and Thomas Richards: I am eternally grateful for you both.

Working associate, John Aspell: I owe you my career& thanks for taking a chance on me.

Authors Rene Girard, RC Sproul, Dave Ramsey, Nick Murray, Michael Kitces: These people have given me the lens through which I see the world.
