A personal message from Mark Halpern, CFP

My path to this profession began when my late father suffered a fatal heart attack in 1974. He was 50 years old and I was 11, the youngest of four boys. In a sudden and shocking instant, our lives changed forever. My family's financial health was in jeopardy, there was no will, no key to a safety deposit box, no savings to speak of and my mother (then 48) was forced to re-join the workforce.

I'll never forget what happened to my family and that's why my professional life is devoted to protecting you and your family from 'what happens next'.

All my clients are busy and successful people. They don't have the time, knowledge, or inclination to deal with these difficult subjects honestly and right now.

My practice involves "crash testing" your life, working with you to identify and set priorities and then creating the necessary and appropriate programs to ensure financial security for you and your family... no matter what happens.

I look forward to helping you.

Take care

Mark

P.S. I have never met with anyone who didn't take away vital information to enhance their financial security.
