Nate Sillyman
Thirteen years on the other side of the table. Now an independent advocate who works only for the person paying the fees.
Thirteen years inside the industry he now examines.
Nate Sillyman spent thirteen years inside the brokerage and advisory world — the side of the table most clients never see. He watched how fees get set, how products get sold, and how much of a person's wealth leaves quietly through costs that no one ever stops to negotiate.
That vantage point is the whole advantage. He knows where the costs hide because he spent more than a decade on the side that builds them in.
He built a firm that sits on the client's side of the table.
He founded The KeepMore Company to put that inside knowledge to work for the client instead of the firm. The job is narrow on purpose: examine the fees you already pay, benchmark them against what fair actually looks like, and negotiate the gap — then explain, in plain language, exactly what you are being charged and why.
What you keep matters more than what you are told. That is the entire idea.
Independent by design.
Nate is not a registered investment adviser. He does not manage money, hold custody of assets, recommend securities, or sell financial products. He earns no product commissions and works to no sales quota.
That independence is not a limitation. It is the point. With nothing to sell you, the only thing left to do is tell you the truth about your costs.
Plainly, and never on top of your money.
A fee examination is a straightforward engagement, agreed up front. On a Cash Out — when a business or large asset is sold — his compensation is a fixed share of the handling broker's existing commission. It comes out of the broker's side, never as an extra charge on your proceeds.
The aim is simple: the cost of the work should be smaller than what the work saves you. Not a guarantee — actual outcomes depend on your accounts and scope, and are reviewed with you directly.
“Watching him navigate the firms we did business with was a masterclass. He knew exactly who to call, how to handle people, and how to hold the professionals on the other end accountable. By the end, I wasn’t just saving money. I understood what was happening and felt confident every step of the way.”
