His advice is…read morepractical, thoughtful, and tailored to the stage of life we're in - early 40s with two elementary-aged children - while also taking into account our personal priorities and circumstances. Nothing ever feels one-size-fits-all, which has been a very different experience from what we've encountered with other advisors. What we appreciate most is that JB explains things in a way that feels approachable and grounded, helping us make informed choices without pressure, judgment, or unnecessary complexity.

And it makes things worse when the person you are speaking to literally couldn't care less about your problem. Just an overall horrible experience. Really a kick in the gutter.

I highly recommend working with Eric, especially if you have a variable income and/or have specific goals you are looking to reach.

Social Security viewed those profits as income, and, as a result, cut my monthly benefit by roughly 33%. And neither of the Mayflower advisors I dealt with ever made me aware of that possibility. Had they, I of course would have insisted that those equities not be sold. So at 81 and with serious health issues, for the first time since I began receiving Social Security, instead of an annual cost of living increase, the only other source of income I have other than what my life savings is earning under the stewardship of my new financial advisors has been reduced by thousands of dollars.
