This morning, the lighting at the office stopped me in my tracks. For a moment, everything paused....

The word INSPIRE was shining brightly—like a beacon, a lighthouse, a mindset…a reminder.

At Foster Klima, inspiring people isn’t just something we say—it’s what we do.

We inspire our clients to take control of their financial future by guiding them through a process that is both proven and predictable—helping them gain clarity and confidence in their lives. We become that beacon.

We also inspire our advisors by creating more than just a workplace—we’ve built an environment that’s energizing, creative, and growth-focused. A place where people are encouraged to think bigger, develop personally and professionally, and make a meaningful impact every day. We are that Lighthouse.

If you’re ready for more clarity, more confidence, or a career that truly inspires you…

Let’s connect.

Sometimes when you need to get things done, you get up early or stay late and put in the time. To get what you want, you need to do things that most people including you are not often willing to do. One of the benefits of coming in early or staying late is I put some cool lights in the office that I get to enjoy...so does my team and the public driving by. Coming in early or staying late allows me to get things done and focus a little harder than when everything is going on during the day. This career can offer so many wonderful things and one is flexibility. If you want to be done early, get to work early!...This flexibility can also be dangerous so you need to make sure you are managing your time accordingly and then there are times you just need to just get to work!!

My dad always told me as a farm kid....Make hay when you can make hay because sometimes there may not be hay to be made!

Have a great day Everyone!!

I spent last Thursday afternoon attending the Red River Valley Estate Planning Council's annual meeting with Guest Speaker Jeffrey Williamson, JD. The topic was Estate Planning After OBBBA: Asset Protection, Long term Care & Income Tax Efficiency. I also got to network with other Professionals - an attorney, an attorney transitioning to Financial Advising and two accountants that sat next to me for lunch. It's always good to spend some time on Education for my clients and my team...CE is a bonus!!

A lot has happened in the last year so I decided to take some time to reflect and celebrate my One Year Anniversary with Foster Klima. This past year has been a year of Growth and Change in "my business world." There has definitely been some Growing Pains with actual blood, sweat and tears shed over the past year along with beautiful moments of laughter, grace and love.

A whole new system was learned
A new office location was created
A new team has been forged
A new family has been bonded

I need to Thank my Wife Angie, family, friends and everyone at Foster Klima and Guardian for their unwavering support.

I look forward to Celebrating the next 20 years of Awesomeness with all of you!
