One of the many things I appreciate is his business plan. Since they are a fee-based advisor, Jack is better able to provide investment guidance that is in our best interests. Previously, we had an advisor that has locked us into investments for over 8 years and I have no idea if or when I can liquidate them. This is a company that works hard to grow our investments and so far, has exceeded our exceptions. We realize there is risk in investing, but Jack has navigated the sometimes rough seas and we have benefited greatly.

In the past, I've signed up, because they keep posting invites on my Facebook news feed, and they've called and said I couldn't come, but no such thing today. I signed up a couple of weeks ago, and got the Email confirmation back on May 3, 2019. This time, there was no call to tell me not to come, so I figured enough time had passed since my last attendance that they wanted me back. I guess that wasn't the case, and they certainly weren't about to make a space for me, even with my Email confirmation, which said, "We look forward to seeing you at Oxford Hotel on May 14, 2019 6:00PM" Sad! Very sad!

I've been under advisement with Ryan for a relatively short time, but in that time he has given me…read moresome outstanding advice. I first sat down with Ryan Thornton last year to discuss retirement funding as well as some general financial planning. Let me start by saying that I do NOT currently have a million-dollar portfolio (nowhere near it!). So, the time and attention Ryan gave me was my 1st glimpse at his good character. Being a small business owner, Ryan asked me a lot of very good questions about my business and gained a comprehensive knowledge of my business model moving forward. He also asked me about my investing experience, my risk-tolerance and all the other questions I'd expect from a good financial advisor. Then he asked me this: Do you have an "emergency fund"? I thought: "...is this a pitch for me to buy some special mutual fund or other investment...?". He then went on to say:"... my initial advice to you would be to create an "emergency fund" - perhaps in the form of a safety-deposit box where you can store an amount of cash equal to 3-month's salary...Before you start investing with me, it would be a good idea to have this fund set up to cover any unforeseen expenses like emergency medical bills, needing a new car after an accident, not being able to work for a time, needing or wanting to lend money to family member or friend in need...etc.etc. ..because it would give you some piece-of-mind of knowing that you may not have to dip into retirement savings if such things should come up..." - Glimpse #2 at Ryan's good character! (he has the long-term AND the short-term in mind) Ever since I finished raising the money for my "emergency fund", Ryan has been completely optimizing my modest portfolio. I happily pay Ryan the very reasonable monthly fees for his continued effort with this. I am over 50, and once again (for the 1st time in a long time) I am energized and inspired to invest in my future. I'd just like to say "thank you Ryan" for helping me create a realistic foundation with a realistic plan to ACTUALLY achieve my retirement goals! (perhaps a few less grey hairs along the way!) HIRE THIS GUY! (you'll thank him too!!!) Chris
