About Brian J Warpinski

With over 22 years of experience in the financial services industry, Brian began his career with Merrill Lynch in 1998 – where he met his business partner Kevin Riskevich. The team moved to Morgan Stanley in 2008, and has been providing highly customized advice and investment solutions since.

Brian has enjoyed puzzles, math, and relationships his entire life – which has brought him to a successful career as a financial advisor. Brian often looks at financial advising in this way, bringing the facets of a client’s life together by putting the picture of their financial life together for them in their own unique way. Brian believes his career as a Financial Advisor has brought his passions and skills together, and that he does not have to work every day because he always thoroughly enjoys it.

When working with clients, Brian likes to work backwards – starting with determining the end goal of what needs to be accomplished. This provides Brian with the direction and path to build the foundational aspect of his client’s lives – Planning, Estate Transfer, Philanthropy, Tax Planning, and Generational Aspects. Brian views his approach as a family office team inside Morgan Stanley, and the team is comprised of diverse and unique skillsets that successfully address the needs of all clients. His favorite aspect of the business is truly understanding what motivates each individual client.

Outside of the office, Brian can be found spending time with his family, and his three children are the stars of his life. He has coached youth sports for many years, finding time to coach baseball, basketball, and has been a coach in the Edina Youth Football Association for the past 12 years. Brian also has many hobbies that he is passionate about, these include road biking, cross country skiing, and golf. Brian is also the former Board Chair of the Greater Minneapolis Crisis Nursery, AIM Higher Supporter, and an active member of the Our Lady of Grace Church.

3When Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC, its affiliates and Morgan Stanley Financial Advisors and Private Wealth Advisors (collectively, “Morgan Stanley”) provide “investment advice” regarding a retirement or welfare benefit plan account, an individual retirement account or a Coverdell education savings account (“Retirement Account”), Morgan Stanley is a “fiduciary” as those terms are defined under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), and/or the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”), as applicable. When Morgan Stanley provides investment education, takes orders on an unsolicited basis or otherwise does not provide “investment advice”, Morgan Stanley will not be considered a “fiduciary” under ERISA and/or the Code. For more information regarding Morgan Stanley’s role with respect to a Retirement Account, please visit www.morganstanley.com/disclosures/dol. Tax laws are complex and subject to change. Morgan Stanley does not provide tax or legal advice. Individuals are encouraged to consult their tax and legal advisors (a) before establishing a Retirement Account, and (b) regarding any potential tax, ERISA and related consequences of any investments or other transactions made with respect to a Retirement Account. Individuals should consult their tax advisor for matters involving taxation and tax planning and their attorney for matters involving trust and estate planning, charitable giving, philanthropic planning and other legal matters.

7Investors should consider many factors before deciding which 529 plan is appropriate. Some of these factors include: the Plan’s investment options and the historical investment performance of these options, the Plan’s flexibility and features, the reputation and expertise of the Plan’s investment manager, Plan contribution limits and the federal and state tax benefits associated with an investment in the Plan. Some states, for example, offer favorable tax treatment and other benefits to their residents only if they invest in the state’s own Qualified Tuition Program. Investors should determine their home state’s tax treatment of 529 plans when considering whether to choose an in-state or out-of-state plan. Investors should consult with their tax or legal advisor before investing in any 529 Plan or contact their state tax division for more information. Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC does not provide tax and/or legal advice. Investors should review a Program Disclosure Statement, which contains more information on investment options, risk factors, fees and expenses and possible tax consequences.
