Our holistic approach to wealth management using The Bucket Plan® makes us different. We use this process to consider your needs and customize a plan that covers all Five Pillars of Holistic Wealth Management—financial planning, tax management, asset management, protection planning, and estate planning. With our financial and tax advisors by your side, you get a big-picture look at your wealth, solutions to your biggest financial challenges, and the advantage of opportunities many others may miss.

Financial Planning

We create a customized financial roadmap designed to align your cash flow, investments, and taxes with your life and legacy goals.

Tax Management

Our experienced CPAs build proactive, year-round tax management into your overall wealth plan, helping you uncover hidden opportunities, stem unnecessary losses, and keep more of what you’ve earned.

Asset Management

Advanced portfolio management keeps your wealth optimized by balancing growth, income, and tax efficiency to support your retirement and legacy goals.

Protection Planning

We help safeguard your wealth against life’s many what-ifs through personalized insurance and risk management strategies built right into your plan.

Legacy Planning

We design thoughtful estate, gifting, and succession strategies to help protect and pass on your wealth the way you intend while minimizing taxes for your heirs.

Kaup's Financial

A CPA-Led Firm with Over 40 Years of Trusted Tax and Wealth Experience

Scott Kaup, CFP®, founded Kaup’s Tax & Wealth Management more than 40 years ago to offer clients a more comprehensive, tax-focused approach to financial planning. His son, Ben Kaup, CPA, joined the firm in 2017 and leads tax and wealth management for clients across Nebraska.

We are a full-service CPA firm for a variety of tax preparation and planning needs, as well as a complete wealth management firm for high earners, business owners, farmers, ranchers, and more. Through our partnership with Prosperity Capital Advisors, an SEC-registered investment advisor (RIA), our team has the perfect combination of small-town warmth and big-time expertise to provide you the nationwide resources you want and the personalized attention you deserve.

The Bucket Plan

Our Processes: The Bucket Plan® and The Tax Management Journey®

Our team uses The Bucket Plan® philosophy, where we separate your finances into three distinct "buckets" that represent when you will need your money for your long-term needs and dreams, while being flexible enough for everyday expenses.

Because it’s not just about what you make, it’s what you get to keep, we also integrate tax strategies through The Tax Management Journey®. We help uncover tax deductions for business owners and families, simplify complex decisions, and preserve more of your wealth for you so less of it ends up with the government.
