Why we do What we do

Let me paint a picture of why I'm so passionate about retirement income planning. Imagine retiring in 2000 with what you thought was a comfortable nest egg. Then, the market crashes. The S&P 500 lost nearly 50% of its value. Your $1 million portfolio is suddenly worth half. Many people saw their retirement dreams shattered. They had to postpone retirement, downsize their homes, or even go back to work. Then, just as things started to recover, the 2008 financial crisis hit, and many 401(k)s became 201(k)s. It took years for the market to fully recover. This is why I focus on strategies that prioritize safety and predictable income, so you can weather market storms and enjoy your retirement with peace of mind.

Personally

Bob is involved in many groups that help his community and make him happy. He received the Volunteer of the Year award from Sussex County Habitat for Humanity, showing his hard work and care for those in need. He also served as a board member for the Milton Delaware Community Foundation, helping with important charity projects.

Besides this, he enjoys being the unofficial Town Crier for Milton, Delaware, where he shares news and events with residents and visitors. Bob has taken part in the popular Milton St. Patty's Day Parade for 16 years, making him a well-known and loved figure in the celebrations. He has also qualified for the Senior Olympics in racquetball five times, which shows his love for competition and sports. However, the activity that makes him happiest in his free time is fishing, where he finds peace in nature and the calm waters.
