Our Story

InvestWise was founded in 2008 with a clear mission: to demystify investing and provide accessible, high-quality education for investors at every level. What began as a small blog written by our founder, Eleanor Richardson, has grown into a comprehensive resource hub for investment education.

After witnessing how many people struggled to build wealth due to lack of knowledge rather than lack of resources, Eleanor assembled a team of financial experts committed to creating practical, actionable investment guidance. Today, InvestWise serves over 50,000 investors annually through our educational materials, tools, and resources.

Our Mission

At InvestWise, our mission is to empower individuals to take control of their financial future through education, actionable strategies, and supportive resources.

  • Providing unbiased, research-backed investment education
  • Making complex financial concepts accessible to everyone
  • Delivering practical tools that investors can implement immediately

What Our Customers Say

"InvestWise's Complete Investment Blueprint completely transformed my approach to investing. After years of haphazard decisions and disappointing returns, I now have a structured strategy that's already yielding results. The portfolio templates alone were worth the investment."

Robert K.

Software Engineer

"As someone approaching retirement, I was terrified about making mistakes with my nest egg. The Retirement Planning Masterclass gave me the clarity and confidence I needed. The Social Security optimization strategies alone will add over $100,000 to my lifetime benefits!"

Patricia M.

Pre-Retiree

"The Financial Risk Management Guide proved invaluable during the recent market downturn. While many of my friends panicked and sold at the bottom, I implemented the hedging strategies from the guide and preserved most of my capital. I've since recovered completely and then some."
