Luke Groninger
Experience has taught me that the biggest obstacle to financial security for most people is their own behavior. That’s why I seek to form trusting, long term relationships with clients, serving as their personal financial coach by:
1. Helping them set specific and meaningful goals that are aligned with their values
2. Providing them with a comprehensive, personalized plan for effectively pursuing their goals
3. Encouraging and motivating them to adopt and consistently practice the productive financial behaviors necessary to successfully execute their plan
4. Making strategic adjustments in their plan as their circumstances and goals evolve over time
I don’t believe in shortcuts to financial security. I advocate time-tested financial principles including prudent and responsible debt management, disciplined saving and investing and a thoughtful insurance strategy for managing financial risk. And as an Investment Advisor Representative (IAR), I am held to a fiduciary standard, required in all cases to act in the clients’ best interests.
