I want to start today’s episode by talking about your story. Can you walk us through your journey from where you got started to how you became New York City’s financial advisor for millennials?

Douglas Boneparth 1:27
Yeah, not a problem. So I grew up the son of a financial advisor, really a financial planner. So my father joined IDS American Express back in 1991. And the thing that was unique about them is they were one of the first firms to put financial planning out there, whether it was a product or service. They were really financial planning oriented. I think on his fourth career at that point, having had success, but ultimately moving down to Florida with his young family, giving commercial real estate a shot. I didn’t really like that business. And sure enough, he found financial planning. He’s one of the first folks back then to get a CFP. And I remember him sleeping at the kitchen table, late at night, I’d go up and get a glass of water, and there he would be. So he was really an inspiration, at least you’ll see where we get to today.
