  • About Our Guest: 

    Cary Cowan is a certified financial planner, although he wants to be known as a life planner and is the CEO of Cowan Financial Group. In 1970, he began his career in the insurance industry, and in 1979, he founded his own firm, expanding his practise to encompass financial and retirement planning, business planning, and investments.

    He believes that a true financial professional listens to clients and prospects and understands what they are saying. “You have to be empathetic to your client’s needs and not your own pocketbook.” Cary believes in forming long term relationships and not just clientele. It is his philosophy that propelled him to write this book to help others understand more than just numeric fundamentals of financial planning.
