"Tammara was absolutely amazing! I really appreciated her knowledge and expertise. She helped me understand questions I have had for a long time and not only helped me begin saving for my retirement, but also helped me feel confident in understanding my benefits."
Teyonna, Revenue/Lottery
"Kate was very helpful with helping me understand the general terms and big picture when it comes to my retirement. She was able to break everything down to me and made sure that I understood everything every step of the way. 100/10 I would recommend sitting down with Kate!"
Kenneth, MoDOT
"It was great having Jesse come to our shop to meet on a more personal level. It was easier to concentrate on what he was saying, and we could take as much time as we needed. I highly recommend the in-person meetings with newer employees."
Hazel, DOLIR
"It never fails. Every time I meet with David I become more and more confident in making decisions about my retirement. I feel more financially empowered after meeting with him. Thanks David! You’re the best!"
Michael, State Technical College of Missouri
"Don was awesome. I was unsure about where I was putting money and how to put money and even how much to work for me when retirement comes. He listed out my options clearly. I think I learned more about retirement today in 25 minutes than I ever knew about it prior. THANKYOU!"
Lynn, DNR
'This was the best and most concise seminars I have had. The tax implications of the different plans and the rules on withdrawals, etc. was very informative. Outstanding job, Jesse!'
