Entertainment Professionals

Entertainment professionals are encountering unprecedented times in their industry: the high adoption of reality television has displaced many jobs, studios are looking for any means possible to reduce production costs, states are luring away jobs from Los Angeles with unsustainable tax incentives, and the overall dynamics of the profession are constantly shifting.

Darius Gagne works closely with entertainment professionals and ensures that they make smart decisions with their wealth so they can spend more time doing what they love. In addition to being the go-to expert for financial challenges facing these unique clients, Darius also has an uncommon and in-depth knowledge of guild benefits (DGA, SAG, WGA), how they affect entertainment professionals, and how to integrate them into wealth strategies.

Moreover, Darius has refined each step of the Quantum process around the financial challenges of entertainment professionals. For example, advance planning for our entertainment clients includes strategies for smoothing out cash-flow over time and creating liquidity from profit participations.
