EdwardJones - Financial Advisor: Tab Finchum

EdwardJones - Financial Advisor: Tab Finchum When I joined Edward Jones in 1984, I was tremendously excited to be in this industry and with this company. That is still what drives me today.

We were only about 700 branches nationwide and headquartered in a small office building in Maryland Heights, Missouri. Today, we have over 20,000 financial advisors and over 15,000 branch offices. Because I started so early, I was fortunate to get to meet the legends of our firm like John Bachmann, Jack Phelan and, of course, Ted Jones. They all impacted my career in a very inspirational way. I qu

ickly realized that, after joining Edward Jones, I could make an impactful difference in people's lives. If I did my job well, they could live a better life financially. I was the first Edward Jones office in the Lake Area in 1984. I chose Sulphur because I liked the small town feel and the great community spirit. Over the years, I have been president of numerous local organizations like Sulphur Rotary, West Cal Chamber of Commerce, The Sulphur Group and Sulphur Industrial Board and have been involved in many others. I am still very active in Sulphur Rotary Club. In 2025, I was honored to be named among the Forbes Best-In-State Wealth Advisors in Louisiana.*

I have a Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Houston (but now a Tiger Fan). I am married to the wonderful Misty Finchum and have one daughter, Taylor Alexander, who is also a financial advisor with Edward Jones. I am asked all the time when I plan to retire, and I tell them that I don't have any plans to. I love what I do. I really like helping people achieve their financial goals and watching them enjoy that accomplishment. I am fortunate to have many multi-generational clients over the years and have been proud of what we have achieved working together. My branch team includes our very experienced senior branch office administrator, Suanne Crawford, who started with Edward Jones in 2002, and our associate financial advisor, Kristin Rusher. We look forward to working with the serious, long-term investors of our area.

One thing I've learned from working with clients is that people's experiences with today's economy can look very different.

While headlines and economic data provide important context, the conversations I'm having often reveal a more personal perspective on financial confidence, concern and opportunity.

That's why I found the insights in Edward Jones' Pulse of North America series so valuable.

🔍 In this discussion, Edward Jones Senior Economist James McCann and Financial Advisor Daniel Klug explore the K-shaped economy and the different ways households are experiencing the current environment.

📊 Among the findings from research conducted in partnership with Gallup:
• 8 in 10 Americans report some level of financial stress or uncertainty.
• More than half fall in the "conflicted middle" – making financial progress while remaining concerned about what's ahead.

If you'll soon retire, or recently have, market volatility may feel especially unsettling. And that’s understandable because at this point in your life, market downturns can have an outsized impact on your financial security.

That’s why now is a good time to stress-test your retirement income.

First, start by confirming how much you rely on your portfolio for income and how a market drop may affect your short-term needs.

Then consider whether you have enough in an emergency fund to help you through. Three to six months’ worth of essential expenses is a standard rule of thumb.

And think about where you could adjust your spending, and if you need to reduce your exposure to riskier assets such as stocks.

If you’d like help stress-testing your retirement income plan, I can help you evaluate your options and stay focused on your long-term goals, even when the markets are anything but steady.
