Jason P. Berube

Founder & CEO, Senior Wealth Coach

As the Founder & CEO of Cornerstone Wealth Consulting Services, LLC, I enjoy helping business owners and their families make smart decisions with their money.  I combine my insider’s understanding of the construction industry, along with my unique ability to connect with people, to help my clients define and achieve the independence they seek in their lives..

Since 2009, closely held family businesses have chosen to work with me because I care about creating meaningful relationships. I focus on what matters most to my clients by helping them solve their greatest challenges and take advantage of their greatest opportunities. By partnering with a fiduciary advisor at Cornerstone Wealth Consultants, clients can gain clarity, confidence and peace of mind knowing they have a financial partner with only their best interest in mind. 

I live in Beverly, Massachusetts, and enjoy spending time with my family. Outside of work, you might find me on the field coaching high school football for the Essex Tech Hawks, in the gym or enjoying a round of golf. My other interests include Boston sports teams, listening to podcasts, cooking and traveling.

Why Work with Cornerstone Wealth Consulting Services, LLC?



Venn diagram

We Take a Value-Based Wealth Management Approach

The philosophy behind our approach is that financial decisions are made at three levels.

These include:
 

Icon

Transactional

Focusing on features or the price of products.

Icon

Process-Focused

Discussing information such as tax laws and financial models.

Icon

Core Values

Core beliefs that serve as compasses for behavior.


While all three of these factors are important, we know that features and prices of products, as well as information and tax laws, will evolve over time. However, at Cornerstone, we believe that values do not change, only the implementation of them matures. 

Impactful Decisions are Based on Core Values

At Cornerstone, we work with clients to help identify their values and determine if their behavior is aligned with what is truly important in their lives. We believe making value-based financial decisions is more sustainable in the long run than if made at the transactional or process-focused level.
Discover Our Process

Our Process

Cornerstone Wealth employs a five-point process to help develop and implement integrated strategies to address a family’s particular needs.


01.

Discovery

We’ll begin with an introductory meeting to introduce ourselves and discover who you are, what your goals consist of and what your finances look like.

02.

Develop Goals

Upon determining a good fit, we’ll meet virtually or in person to further establish your needs, goals and how we can help you achieve them.

03.

Family Wealth Plan

Next, we’ll take a closer look at your current financial standing as we gather information relevant to your circumstances and develop your personalized financial plan.

04.

Implementation

Once we’ve developed your custom strategies and solutions based on your objectives, we’ll implement the details and ensure every piece suits your goals and level of risk.

05.

Review & Monitor

Over time, we’ll meet with you regularly to ensure your plan is meeting your needs. Additionally, we will make adjustments as needed based on any life changes you may experience.

It’s not hard to make decisions when you know what your values are.

- Roy Disney
