About Thomas Ruggie

Tom Ruggie, ChFC®, CFP®, spent his first 25 years professionally building Ruggie Wealth Management into one of the premier firms in the country. The knowledge and wisdom gained from that led him to the founding of Destiny Family Office, a Destiny Wealth Partners firm, to help people face head-on the increasing complexities inherent in their business and personal lives so they can enjoy more time embracing their unique potential, transforming their worlds, and achieving their own destiny.

Acknowledging that in an evolving environment his firm must also continually evolve, he has identified three key areas where evolution has most keenly had a positive impact: presenting a compelling sphere of investments, including alternative, direct and co-investment opportunities, creating a special emphasis on high-end collectors whose collections signify a significant alternative investment, and strengthening the firm’s private trust capabilities. He has become one of the most respected financial advisors in the industry, receiving national recognition and rankings including:

• 10X Barron’s Top 1200 Financial Advisors
• Forbes/Shook Research Best-In-State Wealth Advisors (2022: 4th in North FL)
• 11X Financial Advisor Top RIA Firms
• Forbes Finance Council 2016-2023

Tom, his wife, son, daughter and son-in-law are ‘addicted’ to CrossFit and working-out in general. In 2020, Tom earned the CrossFit Level 1 Trainer designation. He also enjoys traveling with his family, red wine and has a significant sports’ memorabilia collection.
