I enjoy working with…

families, business owners, nurses and individuals preparing for or already in retirement. I also love helping with employee benefits.

I attended…

I am very proud of…

Current insights

Current insights

“Don’t talk about money” Might be the worst advice we were ever given. Financial literacy isn’t taught in schools. For many, it’s a skill we had to learn on their own. Talking openly about your finances is frowned upon. It’s supposed to be a secret. It’s rude. For many, this was our reality. Never hearing about finances. Being thrown into the real world with no financial experience. Your kids don’t have to learn the same. Teach them young. Help them understand the finances. Teach them about credit. Paying off a credit card. Getting a job. Earning money from allowance. It all helps them overtime. It prepares them for adulthood. It creates good financial habits. Yes, we might not have learned financial literacy at a young age. But you have the power to change that. As a financial rep, I meet with a lot of my client’s kids one on one. Talk about their current financial situation. Their dreams and goals. It allows them to start creating good financial habits! We have the power to make a change. Teach your kids about financial literacy. ----------------- Hi, I'm Jon Dannecker! For over 15 years, I've been helping families, businesses, and individuals plan for the financial future.

All it takes is one yes to make a change. Five years ago, I decided to enroll in a weight loss competition at my gym. Being a business owner, you wear many different hats. The gym had fallen on the back burner for me. I decided to make a change. (Spoiler Alert) I lost over 43 pounds and won the challenge! Over the years, I’ve been asked what my secret is. How did I lose the weight? Hate to break it to you… This didn’t happen overnight. I showed up every day. I met with my personal trainer. I weighed myself daily. I fasted and limited my calories. I did (at least) an hour of cardio each day. I stuck to my workout plan. The secret? Consistency. It doesn’t happen overnight. However, that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t try! The same often goes for our finances. We want financial stability right now. We want to see results today. That’s just not possible. If you want to see results. You have to put in the work. Stay consistent. Work at it. Get back up when you fall. You’ll see your finances improve overtime. To anyone currently on their weight loss journey: You got this! Results won’t happen overnight. Find something that motivates you to keep coming back. I’m always here if you want to chat! 📌 Do you prefer working out in the evenings or mornings? I’m always an evening gym goer!! ----------------- Hi, I'm Jon Dannecker! For over 15 years, I've been helping families, businesses, and individuals plan for the financial future.
