About Us

August Wealth Management is an independently owned and operated fee-only investment advisory and financial planning firm dedicated to helping Mainers live their best lives.

Our practice was founded in 2011 by Scott Whytock, a Certified Financial Planner™, and native Mainer who lives with his wife and family in Portland.

At our core, we believe that our clients deserve insightful, objective advice regardless of their net worth.

As a fiduciary, we customize our recommendations based solely on what’s best for our clients and refuse to accept commissions, referral fees, or transaction-based income from loads, sales charges, or markups from any outside party.

Community Connection

In addition to being committed to the success of our clients, we are equally committed to supporting the Maine communities where we live, work, and play. Over the years August Wealth Management has had the pleasure of supporting some of the region’s most recognized and respected community organizations.

As a Freemason, Scott received the Josiah Hayden Drummond medal for distinguished service and been named Mason of the Year at his lodge.  And, he currently serves as the Treasurer for the Maine Masonic Charitable Foundation and the Grand Lodge of Maine.  In addition to his work with the Freemasons, Scott chaired the auction committee for the Center for Grieving Children and served on the finance committee.

Is August Wealth Management a Good Fit for Me?

Over the years, we’ve identified three characteristics among those who benefit the most from working with us. We call them the Planners, Dreamers, and Doers. It’s important to note that in many cases, these traits overlap.

Planners

Our Planners are highly organized individuals who know a sound financial plan is a secret to long-term success. Most already have some financial plan, but they lack the experience of adequately navigating the nuances that come with a comprehensive wealth management strategy.

Dreamers

The Dreamers come to us because they already know their end game. Whether their goal is to buy a retirement home in Acadia, travel the world, or leave a legacy that their family can enjoy for years to come, they want to be sure they have the resources to live their best lives.

Doers

The Doers come to us because they are busy living their lives. More often than not, they are balancing their work/life responsibilities and don’t have the time or energy to devote to developing a comprehensive financial plan.
