About Richard Eddy

My mother likes to tell me that as a little kid I didn\'t have a favorite stuffed animal that I\'d carry around. No, she tells me that I used to carry around a briefcase. Now I\'m pretty sure that her story is apocryphal, but I have (for as long as I can remember) always been the \"money\" guy. And an entrepreneur.(Yea, I was the kid knocking on your door trying to sell magazine subscriptions, or maybe my lawn mowing services.)Maybe this is because back in the day I\'d spend some of my summer vacation going to work with my dad, where his business partner would always have an old television tuned to KWHY 22.(This was the late 70s version of CNBC, without the glitz and glamour!) He\'d also have that day\'s Wall Street Journal on his desk. A few summers of being exposed to black & white business news and \"Heard on the Street\" columns and I was hooked. I wanted to have my own business and work with money.Fast forward a \"few\" years and here I am. I help entrepreneurs with their businesses. I help people with money. The terms \"advising\",\"consulting\", and \"financial planning\" means different things to different people, but at the end of the day what I do is about helping my clients achieve their goals-business, financial, and personal. That\'s what I do.Trivia about me:• I\'ve been called a \"Jack of all trades, master of some\" by more than a few people.• I wanted to be a photojournalist right out of high school.• I am a bit of a technophile.Reach out to me if you want to talk business, economics, politics(!), money, technology, golf, chess, etc. I love connecting with interesting people.
