My late Mother was John Soutsos' second customer when he started out in 1986. She did not know him…read morebut he was recommended to her by John's first customer whom I believe also did not know him. My husband and I began investing with John about 15 years ago. John Soutsos has taken the time to educate us about investing and explains everything that he recommends in patient detail. He keeps in regular contact with us without overdoing it. By reading the pulse of each of his clients, he determines how much contact the individual wants and does his best to fulfil that need. At times during the past decade of serious declines, he has encouraged us to not panic and he advised us to fight the urge to sell when values were low and others were selling. We have been very satisfied with his advice and have recovered all of the declines and our portfolio has been growing. I am retired and my husband is on the verge of retirement. We are well-positioned financially due in large part to following John's advice in both dollar cost averaging and in diversification. I have recommended John Soutsos to friends without hesitation. He is the consummate professional. Yes, I am a fan.

Talking with Gianluca was a major eye opener for me. He really took his time to make sure we…read moreunderstood everything from how we should be saving, to how he's going to set up our investments, the tax implications as our savings grow, and what the costs involved are. He doesn't charge any meeting and consulting fees, which I love, and his costs are embedded in the investments so that we don't have to directly pay out of pocket for his services. There's really no reason why all families shouldn't have a financial advisor. We met with a few different ones, but Gianluca seemed to know and understand far more, especially on the investments side. You can tell he really loves what he does - which makes me feel all the more comfortable with him. Would definitely put him on your list of advisors to meet with before you make a final choice with any other advisor!
