Prosperitus Wealth Advisors has entered into an agreement with one or more Sub-Advisors to provide
fiduciary investment services to certain plan participants. Prosperitus Wealth Advisors will conduct due
diligence of any recommended Sub-Advisor and monitor the performance of Sub-Advisor with respect to the

alternative, financial planning is available for a separate fee. The type of plan can vary greatly depending on
the scope and complexity of an individual’s financial situation.
Prior to engaging the firm to provide stand-alone planning or consulting services, clients are required to enter
into a Financial Planning Agreement setting forth the terms and conditions of the engagement (including
termination), describing the scope of the services to be provided, and the portion of the fee that is due from the
client prior to the firm commencing services. If requested by the client, the firm can recommend the services
of other professionals for implementation purposes.

Conflicts of Interest
Prosperitus Wealth Advisors must fully disclose all material facts concerning conflict of interest and abide by
honest and ethical business practices.
• Some Investment Advisor Representatives of Prosperitus Wealth Advisors are also insurance agents
appointed with multiple insurance carriers to sell insurance products for a commission.
Page 6 of 37
Disclosure Brochure
o The recommendation that a client purchase a commission product from an Investment Advisor
Representative as an agent of an insurance company presents a conflict of interest, as the receipt of
commissions, provides an incentive that may not be in a client's best interests.
•
Investment Advisor Representatives may not borrow money or securities from or lend money or
securities to a client.
•
Investment Advisor Representatives must not place an order for the purchase or sale of a security if the
security is not registered or exempt from registration in the specific state.
• Product sponsors may pay for or reimburse Prosperitus Wealth Advisors for the costs associated with
education or training events.
• When an Investment Adviser Representative provides investment advice to a client regarding a
retirement plan account or individual retirement account, they are fiduciaries within the meaning of
Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act and/or the Internal Revenue Code, as
applicable, which are laws governing retirement accounts. The way the firm makes money creates
some conflicts with a client’s interest, so the firm operate under a special rule that requires it to act
in a client’s best interest and not put the firm’s interests ahead of a client.
Conflicts and the risk of misconduct are mitigated by a fiduciary duty to act in the best interests of its clients.
Item 5 – Fees and Compensation
Investment Management Services
Investment advisory fees are paid quarterly in advance according to the terms of the investment advisory
agreement. Fees are based on the market value of assets under management at the end of the prior quarter as
agreed in the advisory agreement.
Investment advisory fees are negotiable based on the scope and complexity of the services, the amount of time and
expertise required but generally do not exceed the below grid.
$25,000,000+

Up to 2.0%
Up to 1.9%
Up to 1.8%
The investment advisory fee in the first period of service is pro-rated from the inception date of the account[s] to
the end of the first quarter.
• The firm will not have the authority or responsibility to value portfolio securities.
Page 7 of 37
Disclosure Brochure
•
If a client terminates an engagement before the billing period, a pro-rated fee calculation will be applied
before releasing the funds.
• Asset management fees are exclusive of and in addition to, brokerage fees, transaction fees, and other
related costs and expenses.
Sub-Advisor
When clients are referred to a third-party sub-advisor, Prosperitus will receive a portion of the fee charged by the
sub-advisor. Therefore, we have a conflict of interest because we only recommend sub-advisors that agree to
compensate our firm by paying us a portion of the fees billed to your account managed by the sub-advisor.
Mutual Fund Share Class Disclosures
Certain mutual fund share classes charge a 12b-1 fee that generally amounts to an additional .25% expense ratio or
more. The purpose of 12b-1 fees, as approved by the SEC, are to cover marketing expenses and shareholder
services such as support services and “other expenses” such as legal, accounting and the administrative functions
of the custodian. When selecting a mutual fund, Investment Advisor Representatives have a fiduciary duty to
choose the share class that helps manage the overall fee structure of the account. The entire fee structure includes
such fees as the asset management fee, the expense ratio and ticket charges.
• Mutual funds typically offer multiple share classes, including lower-cost share classes that do not charge
12b-1 fees and are therefore usually less expensive.
•
Investment Advisor Representatives will consider investing client funds in 12b-1 fee-paying share
classes even when a lower-cost share class is available as appropriate to account for the overall fee
structure and tax considerations as well as attributes of a fund not available for lesser fees.
Fee Billing
Investment Management Services
Investment advisory fees are calculated by the firm and deducted from the Client’s account[s] at the Custodian.
The firm shall send an invoice to the Custodian indicating the amount of the fees to be deducted from the Client’s
account[s] at the respective quarter end date. To determine the amount due, the account balance is multiplied by
the weighted annual rate and then multiplied again by the quotient of calendar days in the billing date range
over total calendar days in the current year. Clients will be provided with a statement, at least quarterly, from the
Custodian reflecting the deduction of the investment advisory fee. Clients should verify the accuracy of fees.
Financial Planning Services
Prosperitus Wealth Advisors can charge on an hourly or flat fee basis for financial planning services. The total
estimated fee, as well as the ultimate fee charged, is based on the scope and complexity of services.
• The fee for financial plans that are based on an hourly rate is calculated by a multiple of the anticipated
number of hours required and an hourly rate that generally ranges from $200 to $300 per hour.
Page 8 of 37
Disclosure Brochure
• The fee for financial plans that are based on a flat rate generally range from $1,500 to $30,000.
Hourly Consulting Services
Prosperitus Wealth Advisors can charge an hourly fee ranging from $200 to $300 to provide hourly consulting
when a more comprehensive financial plan is not requested.
Other Fees and Expenses
Clients can incur fees or charges imposed by third parties, other than the firm, in connection with investments
made on behalf of the Client’s account[s]. The Client is responsible for all custody and securities execution fees
charged by the broker/dealer. The fees and costs not included in the wrap fee include:
• Commissions and other fees charged by other broker/dealers other than the custodian for transactions
• Step-In, or Trade Away Services.
• Fees charged by mutual fund companies, closed-end funds, electronically traded funds, and other
collective investment vehicles, including, but not limited to, sales loads and/or charges and short-term
redemption fees.
• Markups and markdowns, bid-ask spreads, and selling concessions in connection with transactions the
custodian executes as principal. Principal transactions contrast with transactions in which the custodian
acts as your agent in effecting trades. Markups and markdowns and bid-ask spreads are not separate
fees, but are reflected in the net price at which a trade order is executed.
• Costs imposed by third parties, such as transfer taxes, odd-lot differentials, certificate delivery fees,
reorganization fees, and any other fees required by law. The custodian may also charge for additional
services such wire transfer fees and fees for alternative investments.
These fees and costs are described in each fund's prospectus. These fees and costs will generally be used to pay
management fees for the fund, other fund expenses, account administration (e.g., custody, brokerage and
account reporting), and a possible distribution fee. A Client could invest in these products directly, without the
services of Properitus Wealth Advisors, but would not receive the advisory services to assist in determining
which products or features are most appropriate for their financial situation and objectives. Accordingly, the
Client should review the fees charged by the fund[s] and the fees charged by the firm to fully understand the
total costs. Only advisory fees are retained by Prosperitus Wealth Advisors.
Compensation for Sales of Securities
Prosperitus Wealth Advisors does not buy or sell securities to earn commissions. The firm does not receive any
compensation for securities transactions in any Client account, other than the investment advisory fees noted
above.
Page 9 of 37
Disclosure Brochure
Item 6 – Performance-Based Fees and Side-By-Side Management
Prosperitus Wealth Advisors does not charge performance-based fees for its investment advisory services. The
fees charged by the firm are as described in “Item 5 – Fees and Compensation” above and are not based upon
the capital appreciation of the funds or securities held by any Client.
Prosperitus Wealth Advisors does not manage any proprietary investment funds or limited partnerships (for
example, a mutual fund or a hedge fund). It has no financial incentive to recommend or implement any
particular investment options to its Clients.
Item 7 – Types of Clients
Prosperitus Wealth Advisors offers investment advisory services primarily to mass-affluent individuals and
small business owners with an income range of $100,000 to $500,000. The number of each type of Client is
provided on Form ADV Part 1A. These numbers change over time and are updated at least annually.
Item 8 – Methods of Analysis, Investment Strategies and Risk of Loss
Methods of Analysis
Prosperitus Wealth Advisors primarily employs a combination of behavioral, charting, cyclical, fundamental
and technical method of analysis in developing investment strategies. Research and analysis from the firm is
derived from numerous sources, including financial media companies, third-party research materials, Internet
sources, and review of company activities, including annual reports, prospectuses, press releases and research
prepared by others.
• Behavioral Analysis
Behavioral analysis involves an examination of conventional economics as well as behavioral and cognitive
psychological factors. Behavioral finance methodology seeks to combine a qualitative and quantitative
approach to provide explanations for why individuals may, at times, make irrational financial decisions.
Where conventional economic theories have failed to explain specific patterns, the behavioral finance
methodology investigates the underlying reasons and biases that cause some people to behave against their
best interests. The risks relating to behavior finance analysis are that it relies on spotting trends in human
behavior that may not predict future trends.
• Charting Analysis
Charting analysis utilizes various market indicators as investment selection criteria. These criteria are
generally pricing trends that may indicate movement in the markets. Assets are deemed suitable if they
meet certain criteria to show that they are a strong investment with a value discounted by the market. While
this type of analysis helps the firm in evaluating a potential investment, it does not guarantee that the
investment will increase in value. Assets meeting the investment criteria utilized in the technical and
charting analysis may lose value and may have negative investment performance. The firm monitors these
market indicators to determine if adjustments to strategic allocations are appropriate.
Page 10 of 37
Disclosure Brochure
• Cyclical Analysis
Cyclical analysis is similar to technical analysis (see below) in that it involves the study of market
conditions at a macro (entire market/economy) or micro (company-specific) level, rather than the overall
fundamental analysis of the health of the particular company that the firm may recommend or
implementing. The risks with cyclical analysis are similar to those of technical analysis.
• Fundamental Analysis
Fundamental analysis utilizes economic and business indicators as investment selection criteria. The criteria
generally consist of ratios and trends that can indicate the overall strength and financial viability of the
entity being analyzed. Assets are deemed suitable if they meet certain criteria to show that they are a strong
investment with a value discounted by the market. While this type of analysis helps the firm in evaluating a
potential investment, it does not guarantee that the investment will increase in value. Assets meeting the
investment criteria utilized in the fundamental analysis may lose value and may have negative investment
performance. The firm monitors these economic indicators to determine if adjustments to strategic
allocations are appropriate.
• Technical Analysis
Technical analysis involves the analysis of past market data rather than specific company data. It consists of
the use of charts to identify market patterns and trends, which may be based on investor sentiment rather
than the fundamentals of the company. The primary risk in using technical analysis is that spotting historical
trends may not help to predict such trends in the future. Even if the pattern will eventually reoccur, there is
no guarantee that the firm will be able to predict such a reoccurrence accurately.
Prosperitus Wealth Advisors generally employs a long-term investment strategy for its Clients, as consistent
with their financial goals. Prosperitus Wealth Advisors will typically hold all or a portion of a security for more
than a year but may hold for shorter periods to meet the liquidity needs of a Client. At times, the firm may also
buy and sell positions that are more short-term in nature, depending on the goals of the Client and the
fundamentals of the security, sector or asset class for portfolio management purposes.
Investment Strategies
An investment strategy is what guides an investor's decisions based on goals, risk tolerance, and future needs
for capital. Some investment strategies seek rapid growth where an investor focuses on capital appreciation, or
they can follow a low-risk strategy where the focus is on wealth protection.
• Income with Capital Preservation. A conservative investment strategy with an objective of long-
term accumulation. Emphasis is placed on generating current income with minimal risk of capital
loss. A low-risk investment strategy generally results in reduced potential for overall return.
• Income with Moderate Growth. This investment objective emphasizes the generation of current
income with a secondary focus on moderate capital growth.
Page 11 of 37
Disclosure Brochure
• Growth with Income. This investment objective emphasizes modest capital growth with some
focus on the generation of current income.
• Growth. This investment objective emphasizes achieving high long-term growth and capital
appreciation. There is little focus on the generation of current income.
• Aggressive Growth. This investment objective emphasizes aggressive growth and maximum capital
appreciation, with no focus on the generation of current income. This objective has a very high level
of risk and is for investors with a longer time horizon.
Risk of Loss
Investing in securities involves the risk of loss, including the entire principal amount. Securities fluctuate in
value and can lose value. Clients should be prepared to bear the potential risk of loss. The firm will assist
Clients in determining an appropriate strategy based on their tolerance for risk and other factors. However, there
is no guarantee that a Client will meet their investment goals. While the methods of analysis help the firm in
evaluating a potential investment, it does not guarantee that the investment will increase in value. Assets
meeting the investment criteria utilized in these methods of analysis may lose value and may have negative
investment performance. The firm monitors these economic indicators to determine if adjustments to strategic
allocations are appropriate. The specific risks associated with a strategy are provided to each Client in advance
of investing. The firm will work with each Client to determine their tolerance for risk as part of the portfolio
construction process. Below is a list of risks that should be considered before investing that can apply to the
investment account. Additional unforeseen risks may affect, but clients are encouraged to at least consider the
following risks:
• Business Risk – The measure of risk associated with a particular security. It is also known as
unsystematic risk and refers to the risk associated with a specific issuer of a security. Generally
speaking, all businesses in the same industry have similar types of business risk. More specifically,
business risk refers to the possibility that the issuer of a particular company stock or a bond may go
bankrupt or be unable to pay the interest or principal in the case of bonds.
• Call Risk – The risk specific to bond issues and refers to the possibility that a debt security will be called
before maturity. Call risk usually goes hand in hand with reinvestment risk because the bondholder must
find an investment that provides the same level of income for equal risk. Call risk is most prevalent when
interest rates are falling, as companies trying to save money will usually redeem bond issues with higher
coupons and replace them on the bond market with issues with lower interest rates.
• Company-Specific Risk – A risk specific to a company’s operations, executive decisions and reputation,
which is difficult to quantify.
Page 12 of 37
Disclosure Brochure
• Complex Products – Complex Products are complicated instruments that should only be used by
sophisticated investors who fully understand the terms, investment strategy and risks associated with the
funds. In particular, clients should be aware of certain specific risks involved in trading Complex
Products. These risks include, but are not limited to:
o Seek Daily Target Returns: Most Complex Products "reset" daily, meaning that they are
designed to achieve their stated objectives on a daily basis. Due to the effect of compounding,
the return for investors who invest for a period longer than one trading day can vary significantly
from the stated goal as well as the target benchmark's performance. This is especially true in very
volatile markets or if a Complex Product is tracking a very volatile underlying index.
Investments in any Complex Product must be actively monitored daily and are typically not
appropriate for a buy-and-hold strategy.
o Higher Operating Expenses and Fees: Investors should be aware that these Complex Products
typically rebalance their portfolios frequently, often daily, to compensate for anticipated changes
in overall market conditions. For example, volatility linked ETPs will rebalance their exposure to
futures of different maturities to maintain the targeted maturity. This rebalancing can result in
frequent trading and increased portfolio turnover. These Complex Products will, therefore,
generally have higher operating expenses and investment management fees than other funds or
products.
o Tax Treatment May Vary: In many cases, Complex Products may generate their returns
through the use of derivative instruments. Because derivatives are taxed differently from equity
or fixed-income securities, investors should be aware that these Complex Products may not have
the same tax efficiencies as other funds or products.
• Concentration Risk – Concentrated portfolios are an aggressive and highly volatile approach to trading
and investing and should be viewed as complementary to a stable, highly predictable investment
approach. Concentrated portfolios hold fewer different stocks than a diversified portfolio and are much
more likely to experience sudden dramatic price swings. Also, the rise or drop in price of any given
holding in the portfolio is expected to have a more significant impact on portfolio performance, than a
more broadly diversified portfolio.
• Credit Risk – The risk that an investor could lose money if the issuer or guarantor of a fixed income
security is unable or unwilling to meet its financial obligations.
• Currency/Exchange Rate Risk – The risk of a change in the price of one currency against another.
• Force Majeure – A natural and unavoidable catastrophe that interrupts the expected course of events,
market structure and access to funds.
Page 13 of 37
Disclosure Brochure
• Interest Rate Risk – The risk that fixed-income securities will decline in value because of an increase in
interest rates; a bond or a fixed income fund with a longer duration will be more sensitive to changes in
interest rates than a bond or bond fund with a shorter duration.
• Inflationary Risk – The risk that future inflation will cause the purchasing power of cash flow from an
investment to decline.
• Inverse Funds – Inverse mutual funds and ETFs, which are sometimes referred to as "short" funds, seek
to provide the opposite of the single-day performance of the index or benchmark they track. Inverse
funds are often marketed as a way to profit from, or hedge exposure to, downward moving markets.
Some inverse funds also use leverage, such that they seek to achieve a return that is a multiple of the
opposite performance of the underlying index or benchmark (i.e., -200%, -300%). In addition to
leverage, these funds may also use derivative instruments to accomplish their objectives. As such,
inverse funds are volatile and provide the potential for significant losses.
• Legislative Risk – The risk of a legislative ruling resulting in adverse consequences.
• Liquidity Risk – The possibility that an investor may not be able to buy or sell an investment as and when
desired or in sufficient quantities because opportunities are limited.
• Market Risk – The risk that the value of securities may go up or down, sometimes rapidly or
unpredictably, due to factors affecting securities markets generally or particular industries. Market risk
is a risk that will affect all securities in the same manner caused by some factor that cannot be
controlled by diversification
• Reinvestment Risk – The risk that falling interest rates will lead to a decline in cash flow from an
investment when its principal and interest payments are reinvested at lower rates.
• Social/Political Risk – The possibility of nationalization, unfavorable government action or social changes
resulting in a loss of value.
• Taxability Risk – The risk that a security that was issued with tax-exempt status could potentially lose that
status before maturity. Since municipal bonds carry a lower interest rate than fully taxable bonds, the
bondholders would end up with a lower after-tax yield than initially planned.
• Terrorism Risk – An act of terror or calculated use of violence against the country, market structure or
individuals.
Page 14 of 37
Disclosure Brochure
• Volatility-Linked Products – Volatility-linked ETPs are generally designed to track the Chicago Board
Options Exchange Volatility Index (VIX) futures. The VIX is a measure of the expected volatility of the
S&P 500 index as measured by the implied volatility of options on that index. Volatility ETPs gain
exposure to market volatility through futures or options contracts on the VIX. Volatility-linked ETPs
that seek to maintain a continuous, targeted maturity exposure to VIX futures will either track or hold
VIX futures contracts on a rolling basis. They will sell shorter-term contracts or contracts about to
expire with contracts that have more distant or deferred maturity dates to maintain the desired exposure.
The performance of volatility linked ETPs can be significantly different than the performance of the
VIX and the actual realized volatility of the S&P 500 Index. VIX futures contracts are among the most
volatile segments of all futures markets. Volatility-linked ETPs may be subject to extreme volatility and
higher risk of loss than other traditional ETFs.
The firm’s methods of analysis and investment strategies do not represent any significant or unusual risks;
however, all strategies have inherent risks and performance limitations.
Types of Investments (Examples, not limitations)
Investment advisor representatives of the firm allocate a client's assets as appropriate to help them reach
their investment objectives within their time horizon in a manner consistent with their risk profile. Client
funds are allocated appropriately in such investments as listed below:
• Alternative Investments – The performance of alternative investments (limited partnerships) can be
volatile and may have limited liquidity. An investor could lose all or a portion of their investment. Such
investments often have concentrated positions and investments that may carry higher risks. A Client
should only have a part of their assets in these investments.
• Annuities – A retirement product for those who may have the ability to pay a premium now and want to
guarantee they receive certain monthly payments or a return on investment later in the future. Annuities
are contracts issued by a life insurance company designed to meet a requirement or other long-term
goals. An annuity is not a life insurance policy.
o Variable Annuities – If a client purchases a variable annuity, the client will receive a prospectus
and should rely solely on the disclosure contained in the prospectus concerning the terms and
conditions of the variable annuity. Client should also be aware that certain riders purchased with
a variable annuity may limit the investment options and the ability to manage the subaccounts.
Variable annuities typically offer:
• Regular stream of income or a lump sum payout at a future time
• Tax-deferred treatment of earnings
• Death benefits
Page 15 of 37
Disclosure Brochure
Variable annuities are designed to be long-term investments, to meet retirement and other long-
range goals. Variable annuities are not suitable for achieving short-term goals because substantial
taxes and insurance company charges apply if money is withdrawn early. Variable annuities also
involve investment risks, like mutual funds.
• Cash Positions – Based on perceived or anticipated market conditions or events, certain assets may be
taken out of the market and held in a defensive cash position. All cash is included as assets subject to
the agreed-upon advisory fee. The firm generally invests client's cash balances in money market
funds, FDIC Insured Certificates of Deposit, high-grade commercial paper or government-backed
debt instruments.
• Crypto Investment Trusts and Funds - These products offer investment exposure to
cryptocurrencies by market capitalization, all through familiar investment product structures. The
Trust and Fund’s investment objectives are for the value of its Shares to reflect the value of the
underlying crypto currency held by the Trust, less fees and expenses but can trade at a premium or
discount to such value.
• Equity – Investments that generally refer to buying shares of stocks in return for receiving a future
payment of dividends and capital gains if the value of the stock increases. The value of equity securities
may fluctuate in response to specific situations for each company, industry conditions and the general
economic environment.
• Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) – An ETF is a portfolio of securities invested to track a market index
like an index mutual fund, but the shares are traded on an exchange like an equity. An ETF share price
fluctuates intraday depending on market conditions instead of having a net asset value (NAV) that is
calculated once at the end of the day. The shares may trade at a premium or discount; and as a result,
investors pay when purchasing shares and receive more or less than when selling shares. The supply of
ETF shares is regulated through a mechanism known as creation and redemption that involves large,
specialized investors, known as authorized participants (APs). Authorized participants are large
financial institutions with a high degree of buying power, such as market makers, banks or investment
companies that provide market liquidity. When there is a shortage of shares in the market, the
authorized participant creates more (creation). Conversely, the authorized participant will reduce
shares in circulation (redemption) when supply falls short of demand. Multiple authorized participants
help improve the liquidity of a particular ETF and stabilize the share price. To the extent that
authorized participants cannot or are otherwise unwilling to engage in creation and redemption
transactions, shares of an ETF tend to trade at a significant discount or premium and may face trading
halts and delisting from the exchange. The performance of ETFs is subject to market risk, including the
complete loss of principal. ETFs also have a trading risk based on cost inefficiency if the ETFs are
actively traded and a liquidity risk if the ETFs has a significant price spread and low trading volume.
In addition, investors buying or selling shares in the secondary market pay brokerage commissions,
Page 16 of 37
Disclosure Brochure
which is a cost not incurred by mutual funds. Like mutual funds, shares of an ETF represent partial
ownership of an underlying portfolio of securities.
o Inverse ETFs - An inverse ETF seeks to deliver inverse returns of underlying indexes. To
achieve their investment results, inverse ETFs generally use derivative securities, such as
swap agreements, forwards, futures contracts and options. Inverse ETFs are designed for
speculative traders and investors seeking tactical day trades against their respective
underlying indexes. Inverse ETFs only seek investment results that are the inverse of their
benchmarks' performances for one day only. Inverse ETFs carry many risks and are not
suitable for risk-averse investors. This type of ETF is best suited for sophisticated, highly
risk-tolerant investors who are comfortable with taking on the risks inherent to inverse
ETFs. The principal risks associated with investing in inverse ETFs include compounding
risk, derivative securities risk, correlation risk and short sale exposure risk. Compounding
risk is one of the main types of risks affecting inverse ETFs. Inverse ETFs held for periods
longer than one day are affected by compounding returns. Since an inverse ETF has a
single-day investment objective of providing investment results that are one times the
inverse of its underlying index, the fund's performance likely differs from its investment
objective for periods greater than one day. Investors who wish to hold inverse ETFs for
periods exceeding one day must actively manage and rebalance their positions to mitigate
compounding risk.
• Exchange-Traded Notes (ETNs) – An ETN is a senior unsecured debt obligation designed to track the
total return of an underlying market index or other benchmark. ETNs may be linked to a variety of
assets, for example, commodity futures, foreign currency and equities. ETNs are similar to ETFs in that
they are listed on an exchange and can typically be bought or sold throughout the trading day.
• Fixed Income – Investments generally pay a return on a fixed schedule, though the amount of the
payments can vary. This type of investment can include corporate and government debt securities,
leveraged loans, high yield, and investment-grade debt and structured products. For example, mortgage
and other asset-backed securities, although individual bonds may be the best-known type of fixed
income security. In general, the fixed income market is volatile, and fixed income securities carry
interest rate risk. (As interest rates rise, bond prices usually fall, and vice versa. This effect is often more
pronounced for longer-term securities.) Fixed income securities also carry inflation risk, liquidity risk,
call risk, and credit and default risks for both issuers and counterparties. The risk of default on treasury
inflation protected/inflation-linked bonds is dependent upon the U.S. Treasury defaulting (extremely
unlikely); however, they carry a potential risk of losing share price value, albeit rather minimal. Risks of
Investing in foreign fixed income securities also include the general risk of non-U.S. investing.
• Mutual Funds – A pool of funds collected from many investors to invest in securities such as stocks,
bonds, money market instruments and similar assets.
Page 17 of 37
Disclosure Brochure
o Open-End Mutual Funds – A type of mutual fund that does not have restrictions on the amount of
shares the fund will issue and will buy back shares when investors wish to sell. Investing in mutual
funds carries the risk of capital loss, and thus you may lose money investing in mutual funds. All
mutual funds have costs that lower investment returns. The funds can be of bond “fixed income”
nature (lower risk) or stock “equity” nature.
o Closed-End Mutual Funds – A type of mutual fund that raises a fixed amount of capital through an
initial public offering (IPO). The fund is then structured, listed and traded like a stock on a stock
exchange. Clients should be aware that closed-end funds available within the program are not
readily marketable. To provide investor liquidity, the funds may offer to repurchase a certain
percentage of shares at net asset value periodically. Thus, clients may be unable to liquidate all or a
portion of their shares in these types of funds.
o Alternative Strategy Mutual Funds – Certain mutual funds available in the program invest
primarily in alternative investments and strategies. Investing in alternative investments or strategies
may not be suitable for all investors and involves unique risks, such as risks associated with
commodities, real estate, leverage, selling securities short, the use of derivatives, potential adverse
market forces, regulatory changes and possible illiquidity. There are unique risks associated with
mutual funds that invest principally in real estate securities, such as sensitivity to changes in real
estate values and interest rates and price volatility because of the fund's concentration in the real
estate industry.
• Non-U.S. Securities – Foreign securities present certain risks such as currency fluctuation, political
and economic change, social unrest, changes in government regulation, differences in accounting and
the lesser degree of accurate public information available.
• Margin Borrowings – The use of short-term margin borrowings may result in certain additional risks to
a Client. For example, if securities pledged to brokers to secure a Client's margin accounts decline in
value, the Client could be subject to a "margin call". Clients must either deposit additional funds with
the broker or be the subject of mandatory liquidation of the pledged securities to compensate for the
decline in value.
• Regulation D Private Placements - Under the federal securities laws, any offer or sale of a security
must either be registered with the SEC or meet an exemption. Regulation D under the Securities Act
provides several exemptions from the registration requirements, allowing some companies to offer and
sell their securities without having to register the offering with the SEC. However, a "Form D" must be
electronically filed with the SEC after they first sell their securities. Form D is a brief notice that
includes the names and addresses of the company’s promoters, executive officers and directors, and
some details about the offering, but contains little other information about the company.
Page 18 of 37
Disclosure Brochure
• Short Sales - A short sale involves the sale of a security that the Client does not own in the hope of
purchasing the same security at a later date at a lower price. To make delivery, the Client must borrow
the security and is obligated to return the security to the lender, which is accomplished by a later
purchase of the security. The Client realizes a profit or a loss as a result of a short sale if the price of the
security decreases or increases respectively between the date of the short sale and the date on which the
Client covers its short position, i.e., purchases the security to replace the borrowed security. A short sale
involves the theoretically unlimited risk of an increase in the market price of the security that would
result in a theoretically unlimited loss.
• Unit Investment Trust (UIT) – An investment company that offers a fixed, unmanaged portfolio,
generally of stocks and bonds, as redeemable "units" to investors for a specific period. It is designed to
provide capital appreciation and dividend income. UITs can be resold in the secondary market. A UIT
may be either a regulated investment corporation (RIC) or a grantor trust. The former is a corporation in
which the investors are joint owners; the latter grants investors equal ownership in the UIT's underlying
securities.
Past performance is not a guarantee of future returns. Investing in securities and other investments involve a risk
of loss that each Client should understand and be willing to bear. Clients are reminded to discuss these risks
with the firm.
Item 9 – Disciplinary Information
There are no legal, regulatory or disciplinary events to disclose.
Item 10 – Other Financial Industry Activities and Affiliations
Investment Advisor Representatives can also be licensed insurance agents to sell insurance products for
commission compensation.
Prosperitus Wealth Accounting, LLC
Prosperitus Wealth Accounting, LLC offers individual and business tax preparation and filing, ongoing
bookkeeping and financial reporting, payroll processing, and entity-level accounting for closely held and multi-
entity structures. Such services are designed to complement the advisory services provided by Prosperitus
Wealth Advisors, LLC.
Prosperitus Wealth Accounting, LLC and Prosperitus Wealth Advisors are separate legal entities under
common control, based on an indirect minority ownership interest. Common ownership and control creates a
conflict of interest.
• Financial Incentive: Common ownership and control create a direct financial incentive to recommend
services based on revenue generated, rather than solely on the client's best interests. Prosperitus Wealth
Advisors, LLC benefits from revenue generated by Prosperitus Wealth Accounting, LLC.

•
Impaired Objectivity: Common ownership and control compromise the ability to evaluate competing
services objectively. Prosperitus Wealth Advisors, LLC has a financial disincentive to recommend a
competitor’s services even if such services might be more suitable or cost-effective.
• Comparative Services and Fees: Similar or superior accounting services offered by unaffiliated
providers may be available at lower fees or with different fee structures. Clients are encouraged to
compare the services and fees available in the marketplace. Prosperitus Wealth Advisors, LLC does not
conduct systematic comparisons accounting fees.
Prosperitus Wealth Advisors, LLC is subject to a fiduciary duty that requires acting in each client’s best interest
with the utmost good faith, and full and fair disclosure of all material facts.
Clients are under no obligation to engage Prosperitus Wealth Accounting, LLC and may select any accounting
service provider of their choosing without any adverse effect on advisory services. Clients who choose to
engage Prosperitus Wealth Accouting, LLC will enter into a separate written agreement and may terminate that
relationship at any time in accordance with the terms of that separate agreement. Prosperitus Wealth Advisors,
LLC is not a party to the Prosperitus Wealth Accounting, LLC agreement; the client's relationship with
Prosperitus Wealth Accounting, LLC is independent of the advisory relationship.
Item 11 – Code of Ethics, Participation or Interest in Client Transactions and Personal Trading
Code of Ethics
Prosperitus Wealth Advisors has implemented a Code of Ethics (the “Code”) that defines our fiduciary
commitment to each Client. This Code applies to all persons associated with the firm (our “Supervised
Persons”). The Code was developed to provide general ethical guidelines and specific instructions regarding our
duties to you, our Client. The firm and its Supervised Persons owe a duty of loyalty, fairness and good faith
towards each Client. The firm's Supervised Persons must adhere not only to the specific provisions of the Code
but also to the general principles that guide the Code. The Code covers a range of topics that address employee
ethics and conflicts of interest. To request a copy of our Code, please contact us at (954) 400-1470 or by email
at info@prosperituswealth.com.
Personal Trading with Material Interest
Prosperitus Wealth Advisors allows our Investment Advisor Representatives to purchase or sell the same
securities as clients. The firm does not act as a principal in any transactions. Also, the firm does not act as the
general partner of a fund or advise an investment company. The firm does not have a material interest in any
securities traded in Client accounts.
Personal Trading in Same Securities as Clients
Prosperitus Wealth Advisors allows our Investment Advisor Representatives to buy or sell the same securities
as Clients. Owning the same securities we recommend or implement (buy or sell) to clients creates a conflict of
Page 20 of 37
Disclosure Brochure
interest that, as fiduciaries, the firm must disclose and mitigate through policies and procedures. As noted
above, the firm has adopted the Code to address insider trading (material non-public information controls); gifts
and entertainment; outside business activities and personal securities reporting. The firm will require personal
securities trades made by its Supervised Persons be reported to the Chief Compliance Officer (“CCO”) for
review. Christian Urbina serves as the CCO and an Investment Advisor Representative. The firm has also
adopted written policies and procedures to address the misuse of material, non-public information.
Personal Trading at the Same Time as Clients
While the firm allows our Investment Advisor Representatives to buy or sell the same securities as Clients, such
trades are typically aggregated with Client orders or traded afterwards. At no time will the firm or any
Investment Advisor Representative trade to the detriment of any Client.
Item 12 – Brokerage Practices
Prosperitus Wealth recommend that clients in need of brokerage and custodial services utilize a qualified
custodian.
Broker/Dealer Services
Broker/Dealers charge brokerage commissions and transaction fees for effecting certain securities transactions
(i.e., transactions fees are charged for certain no-load mutual funds, commissions are charged for individual
equity and debt securities transactions). A broker/dealer enables the firm to obtain many no-load mutual funds
without transaction charges and other no-load funds at nominal transaction charges. The commission rates are
generally considered discounted from customary retail commission rates. However, the commissions and
transaction fees charged may be higher or lower than those charged by other custodians and broker-dealers.
Some of these transaction fees are covered by the Company under its wrap program.
As part of the arrangement, the selected broker/dealer makes available, at no additional charge, certain research
and brokerage services, including research services obtained directly from independent research companies, as
selected by the firm (within specified parameters). These research and brokerage services can be used by the
firm to manage accounts for which it has investment discretion. Services provided include research (including
mutual fund research, third-party research, and proprietary research), brokerage, clearing, custody, and access to
mutual funds and other investments that are available only to institutional investors or would require a
significantly higher minimum initial investment. Research and brokerage services presently include:
• access to a full array of proprietary and third-party investment offerings, spanning alternatives,
structured products, separately managed accounts and mutual funds;
• comprehensive technology integration, training and support;
•
Integrated Trust Services offering efficient, custody and clearing; business-building solutions
ranging from marketing support to client management tools;
Page 21 of 37
Disclosure Brochure
integrated charitable and foundation services; and,
•
•
leading retirement programs and offerings to help the firm meet both the asset accumulation and
income distribution needs of its clients.
The firm may also receive additional services. Without this arrangement, the firm would need to purchase the
same or similar services at its own expense.
Custodial Services
The custodian provides access to institutional brokerage services (trading, custody, reporting, and related
services), many of which are not typically available to retail customers. The Custodian also makes available
various support services. Some of those services help us manage or administer our clients' accounts, while
others help us manage and grow our business. Support services are generally available on an unsolicited basis
(we don't have to request them) and at no charge to us. Following is a more detailed description of custodian’s
support services:
Investment products which might not otherwise be available
• Access to a broad range of investment products
• Execution and custody of assets.
•
• Lower minimum initial investments
The custodian offers certain products and services to Prosperitus Wealth Advisors that do not directly benefit
clients, but these products and services assist in managing and administering accounts, such as:
Investment research,
•
• Software and other technology that provide access to client account data (such as duplicate trade
confirmations and account statements)
• Facilitate trade execution and allocate aggregated trade orders for multiple client accounts
• Provide pricing and other market data
• Facilitate payment of our fees from our clients' accounts
• Assist with back-office functions, recordkeeping, and client reporting
The custodian offers other services intended to help us manage and further develop our business enterprise.
These services include:
• Educational conferences and events
• Consulting on technology, compliance, legal, and business needs
• Publications and conferences on practice management and business succession
• Access to employee benefits providers, human capital consultants, and insurance providers
• Marketing consulting and support
Page 22 of 37
Disclosure Brochure
The custodian provides some of these services itself. In other cases, it will arrange for third-party vendors to
provide the services. The custodian may also discount or waive fees for some of these services or pay all or a
part of a third party's fees. The custodian may also provide other benefits, such as occasional business
entertainment of our personnel.
The availability of these services benefit the firm because we do not have to produce or purchase them. The
firm does not have to pay for the custodian’s services. The custodian has also agreed to provide to, without a
cost, technology, research, marketing, and compliance consulting products and services once the value of our
clients' assets in accounts at the custodian reaches at set amount.
• These services are not contingent upon us committing any specific amount of business to the
custodian in trading commissions or assets in custody.
• This creates an incentive to recommend that clients maintain accounts with the custodian, based on
our interest in receiving the services that benefit our business and payment for services for which
we would otherwise have to pay rather than based on your interest in receiving the best value in
custody services and the most favorable execution of your transactions.
This is a conflict of interest. In some cases, the services that the custodian pays for are provided by an affiliate
or by another party that has some pecuniary, financial or other interests. This creates an additional conflict of
interest. This conflict of interest is mitigated by the fiduciary duty to act in a best interests.
Best Execution
In seeking best execution, the determining factor is not the lowest possible cost, but whether the transaction
represents the best qualitative execution, taking into consideration the full range of a broker-dealer’s services,
including the value of research provided, execution capability, commission rates, and responsiveness.
Accordingly, although we will seek competitive rates, we may not necessarily obtain the lowest possible
commission rates for client transactions.
Aggregation & Allocation of Transactions
Although each client’s portfolio accounts are individually managed, we may purchase or sell the same
securities at the same time for multiple clients. When this occurs, it is often advantageous to aggregate the
securities of multiple clients into one trading block for execution. If your portfolio securities are purchased or
sold in an aggregated transaction with the securities of other clients, you will all receive the same execution
price, and if the aggregated purchase or sale involves several executions to complete the transaction, you will
all receive the average price paid or received on the aggregated transaction.
However, if an aggregated transaction results in only a partial execution and the equal allocation of the partial
execution amongst multiple clients would result in an inefficient trading unit in client portfolios, we reserve the
right to allocate the transaction to specific individual clients on an equitable rotational basis so that over time no
Page 23 of 37
Disclosure Brochure
client is disadvantaged in the management of its portfolio.
Directed Brokerage
Prosperitus Wealth Advisors does not accept directed brokerage arrangements (when a client requires that
account transactions be affected through a specific broker-dealer).
Soft Dollars
Soft dollars are revenue programs offered by broker/dealers whereby an advisor enters into an agreement to
place security trades in exchange for research and other services. Prosperitus Wealth Advisors receives support
services without cost, at a discount, and/or at a negotiated rate, that include such things as research reports or
other information about particular companies or industries; economic surveys, data and analyses; financial
publications; portfolio evaluation services; financial database software and services; computerized news and
pricing services; quotation equipment for use in running software used in investment decision-making. These
support services are provided based on the overall relationship without a minimum production level or value of
assets held with the custodian. Consequently, it is not the result of soft dollar arrangements or any other express
arrangements that involves the execution of client transactions as a condition to the receipt of services.
Economic Benefits
As a registered investment adviser, we have access to the institutional platform of your account custodian. As
such, we will also have access to research products and services from your account custodian and/or other
brokerage firm. These products may include financial publications, information about particular companies and
industries, research software, and other products or services that provide lawful and appropriate assistance to
our firm in the performance of our investment decision- making responsibilities. Such research products and
services are provided to all investment advisers that utilize the institutional services platforms of these firms and
are not considered to be paid for with soft dollars. However, you should be aware that the commissions charged
by a particular broker for a particular transaction or set of transactions may be greater than the amounts another
broker who did not provide research services or products might charge.
Item 13 – Review of Accounts
Frequency of Reviews
Client accounts are monitored on a regular and continuous basis. Formal reviews are generally conducted at
least annually or more frequently as needed.
The surveillance process focuses on accounts that have potential issues in the following areas:
• Asset Allocation
• Risk Tolerance
• Senior Suitability
• Market Performance
• Trading Inactivity
• High Cash Balance
• Position Concentration
Page 24 of 37
Disclosure Brochure
Causes for Reviews
Accounts can be reviewed as a result of significant changes in economic conditions, known changes in the
Client's financial situation, or large deposits or withdrawals in the Client's account. Clients are encouraged to
notify the firm if changes occur in their financial situation that could affect their investment plan.
Review Reports
Clients will receive statements no less than quarterly from the custodian. These statements are sent directly
from the Custodian to the Client. The Client can also establish electronic access to the custodian’s website to
view statements and account activity. Client statements will include all positions, transactions and fees.
Item 14 – Client Referrals and Other Compensation
Prosperitus Wealth Advisors and Investment Advisor Representatives can receive additional compensation
from product sponsors. However, such compensation may not be tied to the sale of products. Compensation
can include such items as gifts valued at less than $100 annually, such as an occasional dinner or ticket to a
sporting event, or reimbursement in connection with educational meetings with Investment Advisor
Representative, client workshops or events, marketing events or advertising initiatives, including services for
identifying prospective clients. Product sponsors may also pay for or reimburse Prosperitus Wealth Advisors
for the costs associated with, education or training events that are attended or sponsored by Prosperitus Wealth
Advisors.
Client Referrals from Solicitors
Prosperitus Wealth Advisors uses solicitors to refer prospective clients to the firm for a fee. Such fees are paid
as a portion of the advisory fee if an account is opened. The advisory fees are not higher as a result of the
solicitor’s fee. Prior to a referral, solicitors for the firm enter into an agreement with Prosperitus Wealth
Advisors and are required to provide this disclosure brochure and obtain an assigned disclosure
acknowledgement.
Item 15 – Custody
Prosperitus Wealth Advisors does not have direct custody of client funds or securities. However, as a
consequence of the authority to make withdrawals from client accounts to pay advisory fees the firm provides
the following safeguards:
1. The firm obtains written authorization from the client to deduct advisory fees from the account held
with the qualified custodian;
2. Each time a fee is directly deducted from a client account, the firm will concurrently send the qualified
custodian an invoice of the amount of the fee to be deducted from the client’s account and send the
client an invoice itemizing the fee. Itemization includes the formula used to calculate the fee, the
amount of assets under managements the fee is based on, and the time period covered by the fee.
Page 25 of 37
Disclosure Brochure
Item 16 – Investment Discretion
Clients can determine to engage the firm to provide investment advisory services on a discretionary, or
non-discretionary basis. Full discretion includes the authority to determine the securities to be bought or
sold as well as the amount. Before the firm assuming discretionary authority over a Client’s account, the
Client shall be required to execute a written agreement, granting the firm full or limited power to buy, sell,
or otherwise affect transactions.
Item 17 – Voting Client Securities
Prosperitus Wealth Advisors does not vote client proxies.
Item 18 – Financial Information
Neither the firm nor its management have any adverse financial situations that would reasonably impair their
ability to meet all obligations to its Clients.
• Neither the firm nor any of its control persons, has been subject to a bankruptcy or financial compromise.
• The firm does not collect advance fees of $500 or more for services to be performed six months or more
in the future.
Item 19 –Requirements for State Registered Advisors

individual ADV 2B disclosure brochure. Prosperitus Wealth Advisors does not charge performance-based fees
for its investment advisory services. The fees charged by Prosperitus Wealth Advisors are not based upon the

Item 4 – Services, Fees and Compensation
Prosperitus Wealth Advisors provides investment advisory services where the asset management fee and ticket
charges are "wrapped" into a single payment. This Wrap Fee Program Brochure is provided as a supplement to
the firm’s Disclosure Brochure (Form ADV 2A) to provide further details of the business practices and fee
structure.
This Wrap Fee Program Brochure references back to the firm’s Form ADV 2A in which this Wrap Fee Program
Brochure serves as an Appendix.
• Please see Item 4 – Advisory Services of the Form ADV 2A for details on the firm’s investment
philosophy and related services.
• Please see Iten 5 – Fees and Compensation of the Form ADV 2A for detaisl regarding fees and
compensation. Properitus Wealth Advisors does not charge a higher fee for a wrap fee program.
Prosperitus Wealth Advisors is the sponsor and portfolio manager of this Wrap Fee Program and receives
investment advisory fees paid by Clients and pays the Custodian for the costs associated with the regular trading
activity.
Participation in a wrap fee program may cost more or less than purchasing such services separately. However,
Prosperitus Wealth Advisors does not offer a transaction based pricing model.
• The benefits under a wrap fee program depend, in part, upon the size of the account, the costs associated
with managing the account, and the frequency or type of securities transactions executed in the account.
• A wrap fee program may not be suitable for all accounts, including but not limited to accounts holding
primarily, and for any substantial period of time, cash or cash equivalent investments, fixed income
securities or no-transaction-fee mutual funds, or any other type of security that can be traded without
commissions or other transaction fees.
• In order to evaluate whether a wrap fee arrangement is appropriate for you, you should compare the
agreed-upon Wrap Program Fee and any other costs associated with participating in our Wrap Fee
Program with the amounts that would be charged by other advisers, broker/dealers, and custodians, for
advisory fees, brokerage and execution costs, and custodial services comparable to those provided under
the Wrap Fee Program.
Conflict of Interest.
When managing a client's account on a wrap fee basis, we receive as compensation for our investment advisory
services, the balance of the total wrap fee you pay after custodial, trading and other management costs
(including execution and transaction fees) have been deducted. Accordingly, we have a conflict of interest
because we have a financial incentive to maximize our compensation by seeking to reduce or minimize the total
Page 31 of 37
Disclosure Brochure
costs incurred in your account(s) subject to a wrap fee. More specifically, a wrap fee arrangement creates
incentive to trade less frequently or select investments that that reduce our costs, and in some cases increase
expenses that are borne by the client.
Additionally, the custodian generally does not charge commissions [or transaction fees] for online trades of U.S.
exchange-listed equities, U.S. exchange-listed ETFs, and no-transaction-fee (“NTF”) mutual funds. This means
that, in most cases, when we buy these types of securities, we can do so without paying. We are available to
discuss the custodian’s execution related pricing with you so that you can compare the total costs of entering
into a wrap fee arrangement versus a non-wrap fee arrangement. If you choose to enter into a wrap fee
arrangement, your total cost to invest could exceed the cost of paying for brokerage and advisory services
separately.
Additional Fees
A wrap fee is not based directly on the number of transactions in your account. Various factors influence the
relative cost of our wrap fee program to you, including the cost of our investment advice, custody and brokerage
services if you purchased them separately, the types of investments held in your account, and the frequency,
type and size of trades in your account. The program could cost you more or less than purchasing our
investment advice and custody/brokerage services separately.
Our wrap fee covers our advisory services and the brokerage and execution services provided by the custodian.
As a result, we have an incentive to execute transactions for your account at our selected custodian. Our wrap
fee does not cover all fees and costs. The fees not included in the wrap fee include charges imposed directly by
a mutual fund, index fund, or exchange traded fund which shall be disclosed in the fund’s prospectus such as
fund management fees and other fund expenses, mark-ups and mark-downs, spreads paid to market makers, fees
(such as a commission or markup) for trades executed away at another broker/dealer, wire transfer fees and
other fees and taxes on brokerage accounts and securities transactions.
