Please have a showtime LAST WEEKEND before Labor Day 2026 weekend. I think I can do better for you and yours than your current financial advisor/broker/consultant/team/firm—hence this Friday evening post from my downtown Boston office. Let’s talk . . .

BTW, I want to share a passage from C.S. Lewis on love because conversations with my clients include a lot more than spreadsheets, calculations, projections, allocations, etc. because as I see it, without being personally invested in the hopes and dreams of my clients is like the athlete who does not play with heart and hustle; even though having all the physical attributes of a great athlete.

THANK YOU to all my clients for your continued trust and confidence in this journey/adventure/challenge of living life to the fullest.

Here is the passage . . .

“There is no safe investment. To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything, and your heart will certainly be wrung and possibly be broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact, you must give your heart to no one, not even to an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements; lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket – safe, dark, motionless, airless – it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. The alternative to tragedy, or at least to the risk of tragedy, is damnation. The only place outside Heaven where you can be perfectly safe from all the dangers and perturbations of love is Hell.”

Do you follow and compare college or pro football teams, players, and coaches? For 10 seconds, please give me some latitude to make this comparison. I’ll go over the players (investments) of your favorite football team (portfolio) and give you an assessment of how well I think your team (portfolio) will do this season. ? BTW, certain football players you love, some you don’t really like, but they get it done. And some players you wonder how they are still on the team. That is similar to how I examine the positions within investment portfolios. Let’s talk . . .

Even though today is not done and I’ll be working tomorrow, I love staring Friday in the face like we all are right now. And I’d like to compete for your investment portfolio and relationship. Let’s talk . . .

I seek to help my clients make positive memories for themselves and their loved ones. My clients are all multi-dimensional minds/hearts/souls/people and I put together investment portfolios that take into account each of my clients’ who/what/where/when/why and then I show them HOW.

Your life is not a spreadsheet, even though all your assets and liabilities can be listed on one. Imagine having a conversation with a financial advisor who understands YOUR spreadsheet of assets and liabilities AND ALSO asks and then LISTENS to YOU about what it is most important to you. LISTENING, not just hearing. Everything you share with me is what I call Confessional material. You and yours are so much more than a spreadsheet. Life happens and plans change along the way of life due to births, deaths, weddings, divorces, illness, accidents, new job, retirement, children growing up, relocation, etc..

Besides, I think I bring more positive energy to your phone call, face to face or virtual meeting, or email requests than your current people do. See for yourself and for those who are counting on you. Let’s talk . . .

I’m watching the Mighty Ducks right now with my hobbits. Anyone who has not watched this movie should do so. ’reWelcome

I’m making this post tonight because I am present with my family, who should already be in bed, but I’m thinking about you and yours because I want to compete against your financial advisor/consultant/firm/trust/the way it’s always been.

If what you have is solid, I will say so. If I think it can be improved upon, I will explain how. Let’s talk . . .

As a financial advisor since I was 23 year old, I have used Thomas Aquinas’ famous scholastic maxim: rarely affirm, seldom deny, always distinguish. Rarely affirm--I don’t make claims without having strong reasons because truth can be easily mistaken. Seldom deny--I do not reject ideas without proper information because even within a flawed idea there might be a bit of truth. Always distinguish--looking closely at the all details, divide them out as well as I can and I do not treat situations as having to be either A or B.

I love competing for new clients/relationships and I do so by giving 2nd opinions on investment portfolios. It makes me feel so good seeing the look on people’s faces when I point out something they might never have thought of before.

I know my role--I work for my clients. My clients do not work for me. When we speak, maybe you will hear and feel what I am talking about with this post. In the meantime, I hope you and yours have a showtime weekend ahead. Let’s talk . . .
