Al grew up in a loving home, knowing the value of hard work by watching his Dad. However, his parents were not taught the importance of saving and investing for retirement. His father was forced into retirement due to health issues, making it very difficult for the family to make ends meet. Al helped all he could, but it never seemed to be enough. This motivated Al to dedicate his practice to help others plan for retirement and provide the financial education that his parents did not have. Al understands the unique care and concerns families have and he works to educate families on how to plan financially to ensure their loved one is taken care of.
