My reason for becoming a financial professional 38 years ago was that I was always amazed at the magic of saving and compounding earnings over time. I want to help my clients prepare for their future by defining their goals and then act as their guide for pursuing them. People work hard for their money and their money should work as hard as they do. I really enjoy seeing people enjoy the benefits of planning their financial future. Whether it's: Helping to pay for their children or grandchildren's education. Being able to afford a camper, vacation home, or travel. Just being able to do whatever they enjoy in retirement. It's fun to save money and it's fun to see it used to make our lives better!
