Edward Jones - Financial Advisor: Mary Chambers Chartered Financial Consultant® ChFC®
Wealth Management Certified Professional® WMCP®
Accredited Asset Management Specialist, AAMS®

Financial decisions often involve more than investment selection alone. Many individuals and families consider factors such as retirement goals, tax considerations, charitable giving objectives, business interests, and multigenerational financial priorities when developing a long-term financial strategy. As an Edward Jones Financial Advisor, I help individuals, families, business owners, retirees, and widows facing a variety of financial decisions. My approach begins with understanding your unique circumstances, values, and vision for the future. Together, we develop personalized strategies intended to support those goals and adapt to changing circumstances over time. Clients often seek guidance on retirement income planning, tax-aware investment strategies, wealth transfer planning, charitable giving, concentrated stock positions, business succession planning, and legacy strategies. When appropriate, I collaborate with clients' tax and legal professionals to support a collaborative planning process. Delivering exceptional client service is a priority for our team. Assisting me is Jaclyn Baker, Branch Office Administrator and a vital member of our Financial Strategy Team. Jaclyn provides personalized service and support with account administration, online access, and day-to-day client needs. Together, we strive to provide responsive service and educational support to help clients make informed financial decisions. My professional background includes more than a decade in financial services and over 11 years in healthcare. These experiences provide perspective when working with clients facing significant life and financial decisions. I joined Edward Jones in 2021 and began serving clients in the Lacon branch in 2022. My commitment to advanced education in wealth planning and investment management includes earning the Chartered Financial Consultant® (ChFC®), Wealth Management Certified Professional® (WMCP®), and Accredited Asset Management Specialist™ (AAMS®) designations. If you are looking for a financial advisor to discuss your goals, priorities, and long-term financial considerations, I welcome the opportunity to learn more about what is important to you and your family. Contact our office at 309-246-2008 to schedule a conversation. Edward Jones is a financial- services firm dedicated to serving the needs of individual investors. Member SIPC.

Financial decisions are rarely just about money. They're often connected to our goals, experiences, fears and aspirations.

If you'd like to discuss how behavioral finance can support your financial strategy, reach out. I'd be happy to start the conversation.

As the third quarter comes to an end, three numbers are moving markets — $100 oil, a 5% yield on the 10-year Treasury, and 35% earnings growth. Two are headwinds, and one is the reason the market hasn’t buckled. Senior Global Investment Strategist Angelo Kourkafas breaks down each number and what it means for your portfolio.

When markets fluctuate, emotions often follow. Fear, uncertainty, and even overconfidence can influence financial decisions more than we realize.

As a financial advisor with the Accredited Behavioral Finance Professional ™, ABFP®, I've completed additional training that covered topics related to helping clients recognize these tendencies and make decisions that align with their long-term objectives.

If you're curious about how behavioral finance could help you make more confident financial decisions, let's connect.

When I talk with clients about retirement, the conversation goes beyond numbers pretty quickly. Yes, we plan for income, savings and longevity — but we also talk about what your days will look like, who you’ll spend time with and what will give you a sense of purpose.

If you’re thinking about retirement, let’s make sure you’re prepared for both sides of the equation.

Retirement is more than a financial milestone. It is a psychological transition. Learn how to design the next phase of your life with purpose.

As a financial advisor, I’ve seen how health challenges can affect not only individuals, but entire families.

That's why I’m proud to recognize the work of the Alzheimer’s Association and the impact our communities can make when we come together. Through Edward Jones' strategic alliance with the organization and our sponsorship of the Walk to End Alzheimer’s®, we've helped raise more than $63 million to support critical research, education and support programs.

Our moment is now to continue driving progress and help create a future free from Alzheimer’s.

Retirement planning isn't just about saving. It's about knowing what you're saving for. If you're within 5–10 years of retirement, these five questions are worth considering:

- When do you want to retire?
- How do you want to spend your days?
- Where do you want to live?
- What will your lifestyle cost?
- Does your plan include giving back?

Your answers are just the starting point. The next step is aligning them with a financial strategy built around the life you actually want. Ready to get started? Let’s talk.

Strong corporate earnings continued to support stocks, even as interest rates climbed higher. Rather than trying to predict exactly where rates go next, consider focusing on diversification, goal alignment and opportunities to build portfolio resilience.
