What Revolutionary Wealth Is
A financial planning firm built different, in Northwest Arkansas.
Revolutionary Wealth is a financial planning firm founded by Drew Scott, based in Bentonville, Arkansas.
The firm operates as two coordinated divisions:
Revolutionary Wealth handles retirement planning, tax-integrated investment strategy, and long-term financial planning for individuals and families.
Blueprint Business and Tax Advisors handles tax strategy, estate planning, business consulting, and the specialized work that business owners need when they’re buying, selling, or restructuring — including MSO model structuring for practice owners and business exit planning.
Both firms operate from the same conviction: every dollar lost to unnecessary taxes is a dollar gone forever, and most financial plans are built around the advisor’s compensation model, not the client’s retirement.
Who We Work With
We serve three specific groups.
Pre-Retirees and Retirees, ages 59 to 67
The window between 59 and 75 is the most important financial window of your life.
It’s when partial Roth conversions can permanently reduce your tax burden. It’s when Social Security timing decisions have the most leverage. It’s when the plan you built during your working years needs to be rebuilt for a world where you’re spending down, not accumulating.
Most advisors hand you an allocation and a projection chart that assumes markets cooperate for 25 straight years. We rebuild your plan around what actually happens — down markets in the first three years of retirement, Medicare surcharges, Required Minimum Distributions at 73 — and sequence every dollar to keep you in the lowest possible tax bracket for as long as possible.
Business owners earning $200,000 or more
Specifically, business owners who are tired of writing a check to the IRS every April after maxing out the 401(k) and buying equipment they didn’t need. If your CPA’s entire tax strategy ends at “buy more stuff,” you’re overpaying.
We structure plans that solve two, three, sometimes four different tax problems with one vehicle. Cash balance plans, MSO structures, whole life inside trusts — not because they sound sophisticated, but because, done right, they coordinate. A dollar lost in taxes is a dollar gone forever. We build plans that treat that seriously.
We also work with business owners on planned exits 3 to 5 years out. Most owners sell for less than their business is worth because they waited until they were burned out to start preparing. We begin that work early — valuing the book, documenting what transfers to a buyer, and building the retention history that earns a higher multiple at the table.
Widowed and divorced women navigating retirement alone
63% of women outlive their husbands. When they do, they live an average of ten years longer. And they inherit a tax situation — often a large IRA, a single filing status, and a compressed bracket — that is genuinely more complicated than most advisors acknowledge.
We’ve built plans specifically for this transition. The math is harder. The stakes are higher. And most of the time, nobody told them that.
What Makes Us Different
Most of what gets called financial planning is investment management with a projection chart attached.
A projection chart is not a plan. A projection chart assumes nothing goes wrong.
What we do is stress-test. We run your plan through a down market in your first three years of retirement and see what happens to your income. We run it through five flat years.
We model different Social Security timing scenarios, different Roth conversion amounts, different Medicare income thresholds. We map out what your tax bracket looks like at 73 when RMDs begin, and we start working backward from that number today.
That is tax-integrated retirement planning. It is not an investment strategy with a tax addendum. It’s a plan designed around the real tax code, in the real order that income hits, built for the scenarios that actually show up.
Our fees are significantly below the 1.8% most regional and national firms charge. We don’t need to sell you a product to make money on you. We don’t bury the fee schedule in page 43 of a presentation.
A real plan should show you five things:
1. Your portfolio surviving a down market in your first three years of retirement, and what happens to your income when it hits
2. A tax strategy — not just an investment strategy — showing how withdrawals from each account affect your bracket, your Medicare premiums, and how much of your Social Security becomes taxable
3. The plan run with and without each recommended product, so you can see exactly what each one costs you
4. Your fee schedule compounded over 20 years, so you know what you’re actually paying over time — not just per year
5. A projection that runs to age 95, stress-tested against a bad early sequence
If your advisor can’t show you all five, you don’t have a financial plan. You have a pitch.
