Laura I. Rotter, CFA, CFP is the founder of True Abundance Advisors, a fee-only financial life planning firm. Laura runs a unique firm built on the belief that true abundance comes when we create meaning with our money. Her meetings are a safe space for her clients to explore what they value and what gives them a sense of meaning and purpose. Together, they develop and implement a plan that broadens the concept of “investing” beyond financial assets to another scarce resource: time. Laura had a successful career on Wall Street, managing money for institutional investors, including Citicorp and Para Advisors. Her definition of abundance shifted, and she realized that she was using her life to make money, rather than using her money to make a life. She is drawn to work with others navigating a big life transition, and who are seeking purpose in their lives.

I educate and empower international families and single women for financial success in a non-judgemental and personal way. I founded GreenLife Advisors in 2018 to transform the typical financial advising relationship into one that genuinely serves clients with non-judgemental and personalized experiences tailored to each client's unique needs and goals. Our focus is helping families—many are first-generation Americans or recent immigrants—get organized and set up for long-term financial success. My clients come from widely diverse backgrounds. I also welcome LGBTQ+ clients and provide a welcoming environment. I respect and value each family. Everything we do, from our services to operations to outreach, ladders up to this purpose. What inspires me most is the personalized experience we've created. While my degrees in business and finance allow me to handle the analytical details, my real passion is spending time with clients and guiding them toward the future they envision. I am uniquely positioned to help you and your family through both my personal experiences and the knowledge gained from working directly with families like yours. I also understand working parents' time demands and needs, having been one myself for years. I’m a mother of two teenagers, one of whom is part of the LGBTQ+ community. I hold the credentials and have the education to help: * Certified Financial Planner™ professional. * Chartered Financial Analyst designation. * Masters of Business, University of Chicago Booth School of Business, Concentration in Finance. * Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and Political Science, University of Rochester.

Collecting coins, saving money in a piggy bank, questioning the cost of every single item, calculating investment returns, watching Maria Bartiromo on CNBC. This about sums up my childhood. Plus basketball..can't leave out basketball. Beautiful Westchester County, NY is the place I have been proud to call home for pretty much my entire life. I have been with my amazing wife Karen since freshman year in high school. 9th Grade! Yes, that is correct...since I am 14 years old. Some things in life are destined to be and for us, we both knew it right away. Having a soulmate is a real thing and I was lucky enough to find mine at a very young age. We have three beautiful and active (aka difficult) children that keep us on our toes ;) I always knew my life would be spent working in the Investing/Financial Markets profession. It is what I was born to do, but it was not a straight easy ride that led me to this point. There were a lot of highs and lows, a lot of leaps of faith, a lot of following our dreams, and a lot of uncertainty. We are the type of people that go for it in life. No regrets. We often choose the road less traveled...and that has made all the difference. I have a passion for helping people figure out their finances. I truly enjoy it. Not all people are wired to deal with personal finances, but the truth is it is super important to living a happy life. I want to find a way to help people that struggle with all this stuff. I did not start this business to only help people that are already well off. Offering education, YouTube videos, blogs, individual coaching, group coaching, on-line classes, and being a trusted fiduciary advisor is my vision for the School of Personal Finance. I don't have it all figured out yet, but I am on my way! I believe the coaching/financial planning piece is much more important than the actual managing of investment accounts for a majority of people. Yes, having the correct asset allocation and matching your risk profile is very important, but with the creation of low-cost index funds and the advances in technology, the need for a portfolio manager is becoming a thing of the past. But you know what will continue to be here forever? The need for personal financial advice, education, and guidance that is easily available and affordable for everyone.

I am a fee-only, advice-only investment advisor and financial planner. My mission is to provide great advice at a fair price to support each client’s purpose in life.
