Who We Serve – Athletes and Entertainers

Wealth Management for Athletes & Entertainers

Who We Work With

Athletes

College and professional athletes across major sports managing concentrated income within limited career spans.

Entertainers

Performers, content creators, and entertainers navigating multiple income streams and public visibility.

Industry Professionals

Coaches, executives, agents, and team personnel with complex compensation and career transitions.

Why Specialized Wealth Management Matters

Limited Career Timeline

Income concentrated within a limited career span requires planning that works now and for decades after your playing or performing days end.

Multi-State Complexity

Earnings across multiple states and countries create tax and reporting obligations that require careful coordination with your tax team.

Public Visibility

Public exposure and scrutiny require privacy-focused approaches to financial decisions and risk management strategies.

Conflicting Advice

Multiple parties offering competing guidance create confusion. We provide independent, fiduciary advice that puts your interests first.

How the Relationship Works

Digital Wealth Partners acts as a Registered Investment Advisor, providing financial planning and investment management.

Digital Ascension Group, the parent company, delivers multi-family office services such as bill pay, trust administration support, and lifestyle coordination.

This structure keeps advisory and operational functions separate while ensuring coordination between both teams.

Core Services

Goals-Based Planning and Investment Management

Each plan begins with an understanding of goals, liquidity needs, and career timelines. Portfolios are designed to reflect those priorities.

Our approach includes lifestyle and retirement modeling, custom portfolio design aligned to risk tolerance and time horizon, strategic asset allocation across stocks, bonds, alternatives, and digital assets (when appropriate), and ongoing monitoring and adjustments as your career evolves.

All investments carry risk, including the possible loss of principal. Diversification does not guarantee a profit or protect against loss. Digital assets can be volatile and may not be appropriate for all investors.

Private Investments and Alternative Strategies

Certain clients may qualify for private market opportunities aligned with their financial plan and risk profile.

We provide access to direct and co-investments with vetted sponsors, venture capital, real estate, private credit, and other alternatives, along with due diligence coordination and reporting support.

Private investments are illiquid, may be speculative, and involve the risk of total loss. They typically require accreditation and can include long lockups and limited transparency. Fees and access vary by sponsor and are not guaranteed.

Tax Coordination and Strategy

Complex income requires careful planning. We work with your CPA or tax team to align financial and tax strategies.

Our coordination covers multi-state and international income, compensation structuring for athletes and entertainers, charitable giving and legacy planning, and pre-transaction coordination with your tax professionals.

DWP does not provide tax or legal advice. Clients should consult qualified tax and legal professionals. Any potential tax outcomes depend on individual circumstances and may change.

Wealth Strategy and Estate Planning Support

Protecting family and legacy requires coordination between advisors and legal counsel. We collaborate with estate attorneys to align strategy and execution.

Services include legacy and multigenerational planning, trust and estate structures coordinated with counsel, pre-transaction guidance for liquidity events, and asset protection and creditor risk evaluation.

Legal outcomes are not guaranteed. Estate and asset protection strategies must be implemented and maintained with qualified legal counsel.

Risk Management

Earnings power is often a client’s greatest asset. We help evaluate protection strategies that align with financial goals.

Our risk management services include insurance review across life, disability, and liability, coordination with carriers and independent brokers, and guidance on privacy and reputational risk.

Insurance coverage depends on carrier underwriting and policy terms. Premiums and benefits vary by policy.

Family Office Services

CFO Services

Cash flow management, budgeting, vendor payments, expense tracking, and coordination with agents, attorneys, and business managers.

Banking & Lending

Introductions to independent lenders for portfolio-secured lending, credit facilities, and personalized banking coordination.

Trust Administration

Trustee support, ongoing trust reporting, family education, and next-generation financial literacy programs.

Additional Capabilities

Liquidity and Exit Planning

Major transitions require thoughtful preparation. We coordinate business transitions, pre-sale planning to address tax and liquidity goals, and evaluation of charitable and capital gains strategies. All strategies involve tradeoffs and risks. Outcomes are not guaranteed.

Philanthropy and Impact

We help clients structure giving to reflect personal values and cash flow priorities through coordination of private foundations and donor-advised funds, grantmaking processes, and public and private investment options. ESG and impact investing may restrict the investment universe and affect performance and risk.
