Financial Advisor
Tell us about yourself
I am using my 24+ years of investing experience to help people through this ongoing bear market. I also owned a successful retail business for 23 years. I am very involved in my Parish, School and Girl Scouts.

Series 7 & Series 66 Licensed (Full brokerage and Fiduciary)
24 years personal experience in stocks, bonds, futures, commodities, options and pennies.

For years investing seemed relativly easy. Markets generally went up so the only hard part was to find the mutual funds that returned more than 9%. Now, almost everyone understands that there is significant risk to investing.

Most people are not knowledgeable about markets nor its history. This makes them vulnerable to losing net worth in this bear market. My goal is to not only help people maintain their net worth, but also grow it despite being in a bear market.

The common Financial Advisor puts clients in a "diversified" portfolio of equities, bonds, commodities, alternatives and/ or ETF's. This is a fine strategy for a bull market.

I am an uncommon Financial Advisor in that I am among those who believe the bear market will last a few more years and that the "diversified buy & hold" bull market strategy will continue to ruin clients net worth. Investing in a bear market needs to be strategic, and very cautious.

I use a very conservative strategy that follows these principles:

1. Return OF principle
2. Return ON principle
3. Control losses (5%)
4. Invest in high probability trends

The first leg of the bear market took 30% and five years off most peoples net worth. The next leg will take more if not properly positioned.

Most people I talk to are confused as to what they should do. Buy more? Sell? Hold?

I review and evaluate your current financial condition, explore your goals, and recommend possible strategies. There is no obligation, no charge.
