"Financial planning or investing is a personal component of your life
and confidentiality and proper attention from your Advisor
will make your success more certain."
- John Lerew

Your Financial Future
In 1992, I received my Certified Financial Planner CFP® after spending 6 years consulting clients within the life insurance business. In 1992, the CFP® designation was the recommended education for anyone thinking about building a solid foundation for a successful financial planning practice. A practicing CFP® builds a solid financial plan around the concept of using investments as the catalyst for growing wealth and achieves client’s long range goals versus using life insurance as the platform for achieving the client’s objectives.
In 2020, John W. Lerew secured the Certification For Long Term Care: cltc
As a potential planning and investment client, you want to find true success in achieving your goals, by building a working relationship with an Advisor that is built on the “Trust Factor”. You must be comfortable discussing some fairly uncomfortable subject matters like how you value money, family interaction, motivating factors for wealth accumulation and work environment. There are not many people that openly discuss these topics with a stranger; so get comfortable with your Planner which begins in the initial meeting to guarantee a successful outcome. Consider this meeting a job interview by both participating parties. Planning attacks your vulnerabilities and makes them palatable. Aspirations in the area of finances that you otherwise would have never discussed become meaningful and possible. If you choose the right Planner; you will find it easy to tell your story; discuss your accomplishments, your goals and your long range needs. Candid conversation leads to great outcomes.
