I live by the Golden Rule and I treat people the way I want to be treated. It has been my experience that investors want clear concise information that they can use to make knowledgeable decisions. That is why my approach is from an informational and educational perspective. Every person is unique in their experience, investor knowledge and investor temperament. It is my goal to meet people in their unique circumstance, learn what is important to them, and then offer information and ideas that apply specifically to their situation. Bob and his wife Sue have been married for 20 years and treasure their four children, Lauren 17, Rob 14, Jon-Jon 12, and Nikki 12. They enjoy following their children in their busy schedules and regularly take time alone with one another to go running. In the fall of 2003, for the first time, Bob and Sue competed together in the Mason City Run for Education Half Marathon and they both finished! |
