Attend a Chamber Monthly Membership Luncheon … Drop your business card in a drawing for a chance to have your company/business SPOTLIGHTED in the next month’s Chamber newsletter “The Correspondent!”
I provide specialized care and personal attention. I'm different than most advisors because I serve people through community service and fraternalism, build-ing trust and relationships right along with business. We focus on Protection (life/health insurance, long term care and disability insurance), Savings (long term), Retirement Planning, Retirement Distribution (making your money last as long as you live, Pen-sion Maximization), Estate Planning (Wills, Trusts, Estate Preservation), Business Planning (Secession Planning, Debt Retirement, Business Valuation) and Employee Benefits (Salary Allotments, Insurance, Retirement Plans). Fraternally we help non-profits with matching fund-raiser grants, youth education programs, service clubs, plant-a-tree days and other activities. We gave nearly a third of our annual profit back to local communities last year.
