Q&A with Stanley

​

Why do you choose financial planning as a career?

I love meeting new people and learning new things, being a financial planner allows me to learn more about other successful people and business, and I love listening to their stories. I am blessed to be in the Financial Services industry, and I love it! Being in this industry allows me to focused on putting my passions and skills to good use by educating the community on the importance of saving, protecting, investing, and giving.

 

Why did you start all these companies, and how many companies are you planning on having? 

I have always been wanting to be a Financial Planner when I was young, and had the desire to learn about investing. I have always been fascinated by the stock market and wanting to learn more. Along the way, I grew my network and things just kind of happens from there. I honesty have no idea how many companies I would like to have, but one thing for certain is that I will never stop.    

​

What gets you out of bed in the morning? 

Knowing there are so many things to do at work, and desire to help others. Best part is: everyday is new day and full of challenges and excitement. No two days are alike, how cool is that?

​

What do you do outside of work?

I got two daughters at home, so whenever I'm not working I would spend most of my time with them. When they get tired of me, I enjoy: good wine, good foods, travel, and golf.
