About Voyage Point Wealth Management
We're based in Arlington Heights and offer comprehensive financial planning and investment management for working professionals, families, and those transitioning into or in retirement.
We believe every financial plan is a voyage. Markets feel calm until they don't—and it's in those uncertain moments that planning, discipline, and thoughtful execution make the difference.
Our role is to keep clients focused on their long-term destination, regardless of the seas along the way.
More Than Just an Advisor
We're not a big bank, we're not incentivized by commissions or sales quotas. We're a fee-only firm built to give you advice that's in your corner.
We're Held to the Highest Level of Care
We're held to the highest level of ethical care as noted in the CFP® and CFA® designations.
What You See Is What You Pay.
We don’t earn commissions or sell products. As a fee-only firm, our goals stay aligned with you.
CFP® and CFA® Designation
We hold both CFP® and CFA® designations—and that depth of training shows up in your plan.
Thomas Van Spankeren, CFP®, CFA®
I am the founder of Voyage Point Wealth Management, where I help clients navigate their most important financial goals with clarity and confidence. For over a decade, I have partnered with individuals and families to design disciplined, personalized strategies that serve as a roadmap toward financial independence and long-term security.
I believe every financial plan is a voyage. Markets often feel calm, and risks appear distant, but true preparation is revealed during periods of uncertainty and volatility. It is in those moments that planning, discipline, and thoughtful execution matter most. As a trusted advisor and steward of capital, my role is to help clients stay focused on their long-term destination, regardless of the seas along the way.
I earned a Bachelor of Science in Finance from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign in 2015. Prior to founding Voyage Point, I spent seven years as a Portfolio Manager at Bank of America Private Bank, where I managed approximately $400 million in advisory assets. I also served as Chief Investment Officer and Wealth Advisor at RISE Investments for two years. I hold both the Chartered Financial Analyst® and Certified Financial Planner® designations.
I live in Arlington Heights with my wife Margaret and our newborn daughter Leah. Outside of financial markets, I enjoy the outdoors as an avid fisherman and have an interest in American history. I am a parishioner at Wayside Catholic Church, and a regular volunteer with Shared Table through Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of Chicago, where I help provide meals to those in need.
