CARLOS DIAS JR.
Carlos Dias Jr. is a Personal Finance Expert, Financial Advisor and founder of Dias Wealth, LLC based in the Orlando, Florida area. He concentrates his practice in the areas of tax strategies, financial, and estate planning, investment advisory, and asset protection.
Born in New Jersey to immigrant parents of Portuguese and South-American ancestry, he grew up in a multicultural home and learned to speak Portuguese and Spanish at an early age. From the beginning, Carlos aspired to intertwine his leadership skills and passions for the financial industry with his education. He established a local management and consulting company in 2001 at the same time that he commenced his studies as a first-generation college
student at Daytona State College.
Carlos achievements
In 2007, he launched his own financial services company, Dias & Associates, which focused primarily on retirees and business owners. For a few years he developed a passion for retirement planning and helped a variety of clients—from individuals to executives—become educated on finding the best products and financial plan for their lifestyle to ensure a successful and fulfilling retirement. By 2011, he started to specialize in strategic tax planning, investment advisory, and wealth management. Carlos started focusing on developing creative strategies that combined tax strategies and effectively balanced a financial portfolio. He worked with and taught CPA’s strategies in tax planning, charitable planning, Roth IRA conversion planning, Social Security tax reduction, and small business strategy planning so that their clients, especially business owners with hefty tax problems, could have the most efficient portfolios to enhance their future goals.
(Something he emulated in his own career) and realized that he could combine his passion for sports and entertainment with his knowledge of wealth management to generate a long-term career. He noticed that athletes and entertainers experienced little loyalty and devotion from their financial advisors in enhancing their earnings or helping them progress financially for a successful future at the end of their careers. Furthermore, he has worked with sports agents and professional athletes directly to discover that they accumulated their wealth in a relatively short span, were in an extremely competitive market handling constant business offers, faced more financial hurdles with their travels and all the different laws per location they visited, and so forth.
Carlos emerged with MVP Wealth in 2011, which handles all aspects of wealth management and long-term planning for professional athletes and entertainers who ultimately face more complications, risks, and potential challenges than would a regularly employed individual and therefore need the most care and protection.
Carlos is recognized for his ability in making intricate financial and tax planning issues understandable and is regarded for his devotion and commitment to the diverse needs of high net worth clients. He consults high net worth individuals, accredited investors, business owners, lottery winners, as well as other professionals including doctors, attorneys, professional athletes and celebrities. Additionally, he has hosted educational workshops for business owners, retirees, as well as retired NFL and NBA athletes.
Although Carlos has hosted numerous events with attorneys and accounts since 2010, he began speaking and instructing regularly in 2018 to organizations such as CPA Academy, myCPE, SkyLearn and has been an expert on topics at the Florida Society of Enrolled Agents, Michigan Association of Certified Public Accountants (CPAs). He will be speaking at many others in the near future including the Tennessee Society of CPAs, New Hampshire Society of CPAs, Hawaii Society of CPAs, Texas Society of CPAs, Delaware Society of CPAs, and Massachusetts Society of CPAs.

"Awesome! Informative without the "Sales Pitch". Only time I have heard a life insurance salesman say "for investment purposes, invest in your retirement plan first till you max those out and then get into life insurance products for investment purposes"."
Richard Roche

"I thoroughly enjoyed and appreciated the webinar as I have always had confusion about the subtle differences between the various different life insurance products. It was interesting to learn what types of brokers and agents are authorized to sell which specific products."
