About Daniel M. Allgaier, CFP®

Most people in tech are holding stock options or RSUs worth six or even seven figures…
But here’s the problem:
They don’t have a plan. They don’t understand the tax traps. And they don’t realize how much money they’re losing—until it’s too late.

I’m a Certified Financial Planner® who helps fix that.
I specialize in turning complex equity compensation into clear, confident decisions—so you stop guessing and start building real wealth.

Whether you’re evaluating a job offer, prepping for an IPO, or sitting on unexercised options and doing nothing about them… I’ll help you build a custom strategy that protects your upside and eliminates financial blind spots.

My process is simple: Listen. Diagnose. Solve.

Outside of work, I invest where it matters most—my wife and our four energetic kids. I recharge with cold plunges, bow hunting, ice fishing, and anything that gets me off the grid and into nature.
