Financial Experience Before Spurstone – I was trying to keep track of all the different accounts and options within each. With no financial training, my decision making for investments was based on news, spontaneous decisions, and advice from friends. This was not the most efficient or profitable approach. With Spurstone, I can now reallocate my time and energy into different areas knowing that Tim is looking out for my family’s best interests, and it makes a whole world of difference.

Likeliness to Recommend Spurstone to a Colleague – 10. Spurstone truly sees each client’s success as important. That’s radically different than any other financial advisor we’ve worked with. I have advocated to several folks about my experiences, who have become Spurstone clients. Partnering with Tim & Ted has been one of the best decisions I have made in my life!

Ways Your Relationship with Spurstone Adds Value – Over the years our financial life has become more complicated and as a result the implications of decisions that we make are much more consequential. Having Spurstone as a financial partner has relieved a lot of the stress of managing the financial aspects of our household and business. I appreciate the holistic approach they take to overseeing all aspects of our financial picture – it's way more than just what stock we should invest in this week. This relationship affects every aspect of our lives – asset management and protection, investments, treasury, and many backoffice operations of our business including our 401k and taxes. They are great to work with because they see the whole financial picture.

Likeliness to Recommend Spurstone to a Colleague – 10. The team we have put together with Spurstone operates almost as a mini “Family Office” for us - our accountant, legal advisors, insurance, and even our 401K plan administrator for our business all work together as a team and I know that every decision that is made, is done solely to put our interests
first and foremost.
