McDermid Financial Group McDermid Financial Group is an association of professionals whose primary objective is to serve our clients and community. McDermid formed MJM and Associates.

McDermid Financial Group got its start back in 1978 when our founder Michael J. Building in the Western New York community what has become an outstanding reputation and success that can only be measured by the quality of its people – and the satisfaction of its clients. A measure that is still at the core of the organization today. In 2006 the switch to McDermid Financial Group was made to better represent the scope of our business. We are an experienced association of professionals – and it is our primary responsibility to service our clients. We believe what we do changes people’s lives forever. Every person, family or business we come in contact with deserves the very best from every one of our associates and should be better off after having met us than before. Our service begins by acquainting ourselves fully with each client’s unique situation, and thoroughly understanding their long term objectives. We then offer professional recommendations in the form of insurance and financial programs expressly designed to achieve specific goals. We often work as a team with your attorney and accountant to develop the most comprehensive, economical and secure financial program. The business of preparing insurance and financial programs is sometimes complex. For that very reason, we believe in talking to our clients in plain language – using terms and figures easily understood. We also believe the most important part is the ongoing administration of programs after they have been developed. McDermid Financial Group exists to provide professional, personal service in developing insurance and financial programs that are in the best interest of our clients. We look forward to having the opportunity to serve you.

The Talk Nobody Wants to Have (But Everyone Needs To)

Your parents will happily tell you about their dental appointments, their neighbor’s gutter drama, and exactly how they feel about the new grocery store layout.

But ask where the will is? Suddenly the coffee needs refilling.

Here’s the thing, trillions of dollars are expected to pass between generations in the coming years, and the families who handle it best are the ones who talked early.

Try this instead of “Let’s discuss your estate”:

🗝️ Start with stories, not spreadsheets. “What’s something you hope your money does for the family?”
đź“‚ Ask where the important papers live. Will, healthcare directive, power of attorney. Know the filing cabinet before you need it.
✍️ Check the fine print on beneficiaries. Retirement accounts and life insurance skip the will entirely, so old names can cause big surprises.
🤝 Invite a pro to the table. An advisor or estate attorney makes it a team effort instead of an awkward family meeting.

It’s not about their money. It’s about making sure their wishes are heard and their family is looking out for each other.

MYTH VS FACT

MYTH: “I’m too young to start investing.”

FACT: Starting early is one of the biggest advantages you can have. Thanks to compound growth, even small, consistent contributions in your 20s can grow far more over time than larger amounts started later.

You don’t need a lot of money to begin. You just need to begin.

Last week, on September 30th, Detective Sergeant Nicholas Militello was honored with the 2026 Theodore Roosevelt Police Award for 14 years of dedicated service to Buffalo.

The award ceremony took place at the historic site where Theodore Roosevelt was inaugurated in 1901, celebrating public service, civic leadership, and commitment to the Buffalo community.

The Theodore Roosevelt Inaugural National Historic Site recognized Militello for his leadership in the Buffalo Police Department’s B District, where he oversees investigations, supports victims, coordinates complex cases, and works with local and federal partners on major crimes. His work included helping recover Theodore Roosevelt’s stolen pocket watch after it had been missing for 37 years.

McDermid Financial Group is proud to be an active supporter of the TR Inaugural National Historic Site and to participate in honoring local heroes in our community like Nicholas Militello.
