About Tres
Tres Baucum is a Financial Advisor with Wealthcare Partners of Tennessee in Crossville, TN. In 2017, Tres aligned with Wealthcare Advisory Partners to provide clients with a goals-driven experience that seamlessly integrates planning and investing.
After a successful stretch owning, operating and in some cases, selling several companies, Tres brought his business acumen and relationship-building talent to the financial services industry. With his career success working with clients to achieve their goals, transitioning to a service and planning-focused advisory position was a logical next step. Tres realized the value and importance of aligning planning and investing after accumulating assets and not having a clear picture of what to do.
Tres advises a diverse group of clients in Tennessee and nine other states, including active and successful professionals, business owners and executives. By following a common goal to treat every client like family, Tres follows a high-touch approach that promotes transparency and efficiency. His mission is to match the life goals of clients with the right investment strategy, regardless of the client’s stage in life or objectives.
Wealthcare’s GDX360® process helps Tres give clients what they want most: guidance in building and monitoring their life goals and financial roadmap. By using Wealthcare’s Comfort Zone®, he provides clients with financial independence and confidence that results from having a flexible, actionable financial plan.
Tres has always had an entrepreneurial mindset and eye for business. During his college years, he founded, co-owned and ultimately sold Integrated Medical Services with a physician friend. More recent business endeavors include partial ownership of Baucum/Wagner land company, Advanced Electrical Systems (an engineering design firm that holds four patents) and SmallBiz Resources (a temporary staffing and HR company). These experiences helped shape Tres’ perspectives with respect to helping people accomplish goals.
An avid outdoorsman, Tres and his wife Vicki, and their two boys, live on a mountain, and have an unrelenting passion for four-wheeling and hunting, and enjoying nature. They also love to travel when their schedules permit. Tres is also an accomplished runner, having participated in several marathons, and continues to run whenever possible. Tres and his family are also active in the community, and have attended Homestead Baptist Church for more than 15 years.

Why Wealthcare?
Established in 1999, Wealthcare Capital Management (Wealthcare) is a very different kind of a financial advisory firm. We pioneered a new way of providing financial life guidance, using Goals-Based Wealth Management. The cornerstone of our patented goals-based investing process is quite simply to help our clients, above all else, to make the most of their life.
We accomplish this by helping you understand and identify your most important life goals. And then we align your investments with those goals. Our process guides you through the myriad of changes in your life that will invariably require financial decisions. This is what we refer to as Financial Guidance for Life.
At Wealthcare, we measure our success in our clients’ fulfillment — one client at a time.
With our goals-driven investing approach, you will:
- Have your personal goals in complete alignment with your investments.
- Always know where you stand and we’ll present your progress reports in “plain” English.
- Have confidence in your ability to reach your goals, independent of market fluctuations and changing life circumstances.
Our Process
Wealthcare’s patented process is designed to help you reach your life goals, while minimizing unnecessary investment risk or needlessly sacrificing your life now.
Our process is dynamic and continual, as is life, and it will guide you through the entirety of your financial life.
MOST IMPORTANTLY, THE WEALTHCARE PROCESS IS YOU- DRIVEN. NOT MARKET DRIVEN. IT’S POWERFULLY SIMPLE. IT’S REFRESHINGLY CLEAR.
And it all STARTS WITH A GREAT CONVERSATION
A conversation that helps you to visualize your most important life goals
Dream Big
Do you like to travel? How will you pay for your children’s education? What exactly does “comfortable” retirement look like to you? You’ll cover these topics — and more — during our initial conversation.
We’ll use this conversation as a launching pad for creating your financial life plan. My objective as your Wealthcare advisor is to inspire and guide you toward pursuing the life of your dreams. I will help you define your life goals, and most importantly, will guide you toward achieving them.
But this is just a beginning. Wealthcare’s financial plan is not a “set it and forget it” tool. It’s a dynamic financial guidance system that evolves as your circumstances and financial markets change. I will continually monitor your plan against your changing life events and your investment portfolio, keeping the two in sync. Our software runs sophisticated market simulations, designed to monitor, measure and track your progress and report back to you with clarity.
Your Comfort Zone®
You will have confidence in your financial life plan because I will be constantly performing analytics in an effort to ensure your success. At Wealthcare, we call this being in the Comfort Zone. The Comfort Zone measures the probability of reaching your financial goals. And it also alerts you if you veer off course.
