Lester N. Himel discovered the use of specific types of Life Insurance to enhance and expand the performance of investment portfolios several years ago; this after spending 28 years in a variety of positions on Wall Street. Like most financial professionals, he considered stocks, bonds and similar instruments as the core of a reasonable investment approach. In those last several years, Les has found the better way. Les comes to this field with a very broad financial background. He started as a compliance officer, worked in administration, was an institutional bond trader, developed an Emerging Markets business, and was also involved with “alternative investments”. Les prefers low risk and “guarantees”, and has an ability to simplify explanations of what, why and how. Contact Les at heiratlas.com.
Doug Peacock spent 38 years as a high school teacher and football coach. He tried to retire the traditional/conventional path, and things didn’t work out like he was led to believe. He learned that other teachers and coaches were having the same conversation. Doug literally watched his 403(b) become a 203(b) twice in the last decade of his teaching career. He knew there had to be a better way, so he started learning how wealth really works.
