About My Practice

MOST OF MY CLIENTS ARE WITHIN FIVE TO FIFTEEN YEARS OF RETIREMENT OR IN RETIREMENT. ALL ARE CONCERNED ABOUT REACHING GOALS SUCH HAS HAVING ENOUGH INCOME TO SUPPORT THEIR LIFESTYLE WITHOUT WORRY.  

OTHER CLIENTS HAVE SUFFICENT FUNDS FOR RETIREMENT, BUT NEED SOMEONE TO MAKE SURE THAT THE FUNDS ARE MANAGED AND PRESERVED FOR THEIR PURPOSE.

 

Experience

Began my business as a special (life) agent for Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance company in July 1977.

I received excellent trainning in the life and health insurance professions and became independent in 1986.

Obtained my NASD series 6 (mutual funds and variable products) in 1981.

Property and Casualty license in 1985

NASD series 7 (stocks, bonds, partnerships) in 1986. 

Formed PCS Financial Planning in December 1994 and received my CFP designation in 1998.

I have been a member of the former International Association of Financial Planners, now known as the FPA, since February 1995. I am a trustee of the board of directors of the LI Chapter, as the Director of Symposium.

I am the former Finance chair of the board of directors of Temple Beth Chai of Hauppauge and had served the board for 22 years.
