Meet Brady Baxter👋

Brady came up in this industry the right way — learning alongside his father and building a foundation rooted in trust, hard work, and a genuine commitment to the people he serves. In the five years since joining the practice, he has grown into an advisor who brings expertise to every client relationship.

As a Retirement Income Certified Professional, Brady has developed a deep understanding of what it takes to help clients turn a lifetime of hard work into lasting financial security. He doesn’t just know the numbers — he knows how to translate them into a retirement strategy that actually fits the life his clients have built and the future they’re working toward.

We’re proud to have Brady carrying the Baxter Investment Group legacy forward — and helping write the next chapter.

Are you prepared for retirement? A new survey found that 67% of Gen X have less than $100k saved for retirement, and nearly half expect to dip into those funds just to cover everyday expenses. Ask yourself:

➜ Do you know how much you should have saved for retirement?
➜ Have you thought about what your monthly wants/ needs will be during retirement?

It’s never too late to start now!

Near retirement, but it's just out of reach.

Meet Jim Scott👋

Jim has been a financial advisor since 2004, bringing over two decades of experience and a rare combination of business depth and retirement planning expertise — backed by both an MBA and his RICP designation.

For Jim, great financial planning starts with truly understanding the person in front of him. He takes the time to listen, ask the right questions, and build strategies that are clear, practical, and built around what matters most to each client.

His clients don’t just get a plan — they get an advisor who is genuinely invested in their financial future for the long haul.

We’re proud to have Jim Scott on the Baxter Investment Group team!

Through shifting markets and life’s inevitable changes, Paul is the kind of advisor who shows up with steady guidance and a clear head. His clients don’t just get a plan, they get a partner who is genuinely invested in helping them make informed decisions with confidence.

A couple weeks ago, our team had a great time attending Hob Nosh ‘26 at the Bend XPO in East Moline!🤝

Events like these are a great reminder of just how much talent, passion, and hard work exists right here in our community. We loved connecting with so many local businesses and getting to know the people behind them.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by. It’s always a pleasure to be part of events that bring our community together.
