I founded Weiser Financial Planning LLC after working many years in the corporate world. I chose to open WFP because I wanted to create a business with a noble purpose where I could combine my entrepreneurial side with my passion for helping people to make wise financial decisions. I believe that money is just a tool and that it's important to help people connect their money with the things that are most important to them. I like to say, "money without purpose is like eating cereal without milk, it might taste ok - it's just not as satisfying." I have worked in the financial services industry since 2000 working for several Fortune 500 companies. Over those years I have consulted with hundreds of financial advisors from various financial institutions including banks, insurance companies, wirehouses, and independent broker/dealers. Through this experience I have had the opportunity to help thousands of clients and positively impact their lives. One of my driving motivations in building a new financial planning business was to differentiate from the Wall Street firms, banks, and insurance companies that sell proprietary products with sales incentives, and conflicts of interest that are intended to maximize company returns at the expense of clients. As an independent RIA we are completely free to focus on our clients and what's in your best interest. Schedule a time for a conversation > https://weiseradvisor.com/schedule
