As a veteran of the financial services industry, I realize the importance of the position I have been placed in to help others. As our industry has evolved, we have taken on a greater responsibility to make sure we do right by others through adherence to ethics and acquiring as much education as we possibly can. After being in the business for over twenty-five years, I've come to really appreciate what we do and how we do it to the point where I am now mentoring others in our business. The key word that I stress to all in our mentor program is “lifetime” because it gives peace of mind to seniors who fear outliving their money. I love the television commercial with the college professor who is conducting a study for the Prudential Life Insurance Company, asking people who the oldest person is that they know. I also enjoy the ad that has people pulling a blue ribbon until their money runs out (usually before they expect). And the woman looks up and says “I better rethink this thing.” Those commercials portray exactly what our clients fear most-running out of money.

In her 40's, Sandy Morris had a personal epiphany. She decided that her true purpose in life was to give certainty and security to others. The result of that decision has caused Sandy to become one of the nation's top independent financial advisors, with a passion for helping those nearing or in retirement to be able to maximize their Social Security benefits. Two stories illustrate all the reader needs to know about Sandy, her expertise, her passion and her commitment. The first tells of a man who came to see Sandy in her Tampa, Fl offices. He opened the door to the boardroom, saying, "Don't bother to get up. I have been wanting to stop by and say thank you. If it had not been for your help last year, I would have lost my home." The second example involves a husband and wife. "A couple came in for their annual account review," recalls Sandy. "They had returned from an RV trip out west. They told me how much they appreciated the financial planning sessions that allowed them to reshape their retirement path. "Words cannot express how much joy I receive from hearing stories like that from people we have helped through proper retirement planning. "This is the juice that keeps me going," Sandy concluded.
Married with a child, the Kentucky-born Sandy Morris is the founder and CEO of Sandy Morris Financial.
