The old adage "Time is Money" is not true – time is much more valuable than money. I learned that lesson very well when I was working as a chaplain both in a level-one trauma center and with a non-profit hospice. I learned to sit quietly with people as they reflected on their lives, voiced some of their regrets and grief, and expressed gratitude for the blessings they could count. I learned to ask questions about the things they wanted to accomplish, and to ask people how they wanted to be remembered.
I loved my work as a chaplain, but one constant is that life changes. I came to work with Edward Jones as a financial advisor in 2010. While I learned a whole new skill set and new words for the financial markets, I also brought the heart and ears of a chaplain. Meeting with a client doesn't start with me doing all the talking, but rather asking questions, making sure that clients can see a bigger picture, can connect the dots between investing today (even through the uncertainties of markets and life) and the goals of tomorrow – or six decades from now.
Life is composed of many powerful things: music, art, faith, sports, politics, family, friends. Wonderful things can happen when we take the time to be intentional, to observe, appreciate and plan on how we want to improve what is around us. My goal is to help clients invest, grow, enjoy and ultimately transfer their wealth to the people and/or causes that they love the most.
