Lee Hyder
Founder and President
Welcome to Lee Hyder & Associates Wealth Management LLC, a fiduciary wealth coaching firm based in Akron. For over 32 years, we’ve been helping clients clarify their goals, discover their true purpose for money, and experience peace of mind throughout retirement.
In today’s economic environment, successful planning requires more than traditional investing. It calls for disciplined risk management, strategic execution, and thoughtful, globally diversified strategies that aim to reduce volatility while capturing long-term growth. The days of chasing hot stock tips or hyped IPOs are behind us. What matters now is working with a financial coach who will tell you the truth—even when it’s uncomfortable—and who always puts your interests first.
We live in a time of financial noise: market swings, overwhelming information, and an endless stream of products promising to be the next big thing. On top of that, we’ve seen scandals and instability that have deeply affected investors’ confidence and wealth.
While personal finance should be a rational, evidence-based process, emotional decisions often take over—especially in uncertain times. These emotional choices can lead people to act against their own best interests.
That’s why our mission is different. We don’t aim to be your broker, your insurance agent, or even just your financial planner. Our mission is to serve as your coach. That means taking the time to understand what truly matters to you, identifying the key steps required to live without financial regret, and building a plan rooted in your values. We’re here to evaluate your strengths and weaknesses, guide your decision-making, and help you follow through with confidence.
Our mission is to serve not as your broker, or your insurance agent, or even your planner. Our mission is to serve as Your Coach. To first learn what must happen to live your life without any regret, to evaluate your strengths and weaknesses, and to guide you to implement a plan for achieving your stated objectives.
