We have been dealing with Jay for over a decade. We had a lot of catching up to do in order to get enough funds for retirement. Jay went straight to work getting us to a level we needed . He also invests in the same funds - which says a lot. He is always free to meet to clarify any investment, when possible fitting us in for an early morning meeting at our acreage on his way to the office. Returning calls promptly with proactive advice. Jay is positive, up lifting kind of guy, always a pleasure to see. And yes gets very excited "following the money" knowing we all depend on him and do so with the greatest confidence. Donna Huebner
