Yesterday I walked in and made an appointment with Chris Metzger for this morning at 9am. The staff Sina at the front desk was nice and friendly. I know I supposed to talk to a Chris something but I just could not remember the last name. Sina helped me to figure that out which was good.
My appointment with Chris Metzger was this morning. Upon walking in, Chris was already walking out of his office and greeted me. I have never meet him before, I guess he figured out I would be his first client he was seeing this early cold morning.
I have been procrastinating to come to Charles Schwab. Not like Charles Schwab is bad, in fact I heard good things about Charles Schwab and particularly this branch. Chris was the one I should see to get help, so I was told. I am just clueless about anything investment and to me, that's like Greek to me and I have no idea and no interest in that "language". Then again I have to do what I need to do. That's life, isn't it?
Chris led me to his office and I was dreading this session. I thought it was going to be a painful and boring morning for me. Turned out, it was not too bad at all. I am pretty sure Chris' personality and approach helped. He was cheery, helpful and extremely patient with me. And yes, I told him I am clueless about anything that has to do with investing and I really was not looking forward to my session with him. No, I did not say it in a mean way. I actually put it across very pleasantly. Please, I do have my manners ;-)
He set up a Charles Schwab account for me, went through and explained some materials and did not make anything too complicated for me. Chris also told me I could contact him anytime if I have any questions. At the end of the session, I supposed to provide him some information and I told him I could drop by before the end of the day to pass it to him. While driving in the crazy Friday rush hour traffic, Chris called and informed me he was about to go into a meeting. I told him no problem, I would leave the information at the front desk for him.
I am definitely happy to recommend Chris Metzger to anyone who is interested in investment services at Charles Schwab. read more
