About Me

Hi, I'm Phil Fiore. As a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ professional, I am dedicated to helping my clients build and secure their financial future.

Some of the lessons my father taught me were the value of hard work, leadership, and most importantly planning. I would always crack up at the hand-written driving directions even when GPS had been around for years. Growing up whether it was setting the kitchen table, sweeping the deck before winter, or hitting balls in the batting cage, I was taught that if you are going to do something, you need to be calculated and do it right.

I never knew how important that planning would be until I got the call that my 53-year-old dad was in the hospital and wasn’t going to make it. I learned right then, that life can happen in an instant and you need to be ready.

Those lessons about planning were not just words. My family was left in a spot where my father’s proper preparation left us in a good position. The kids were able to go to college and my mother was eventually able to retire. I have seen the impact good financial planning can have, so I decided to devote my career to paying it forward. Now I want to make sure everyone I meet is in the best position for the best of times and the worst of times.

In today’s day it is hard enough to live for today, never mind save for tomorrow. It is our responsibility to spread the best advice to as many people as possible and solve the retirement crisis that is facing millions of Americans every day. The way we do it is through understanding your situation, respecting your assets, educating you on your options, solving your problems, monitoring your progress, and staying in touch.

Not everyone needs or thinks they need a financial advisor, but no one should have to figure it out by themselves.

My driving mission is to get people to whatever financial independence means to them. I do so with a team approach! Our advising team was the top district in Southern California and #3 MDA Team in the country within Equitable in the past 2 years.

We have been working with Phil for several years. Phil has been a great help to keep us on track for our retirement and our girls college funds. He always suggests little changes to get closer to our goals. I’ll highly recommend to work with Phil.

I have been working with Phil for about 2 years now. With Phil, it's not just about results. It's truly about building a relationship and understanding your needs. He takes the time to get to know you and make recommendations that are in line with your best interests. He frequently checks in without me even asking or reaching up, which shows he's proactive in how he approaches his business and relationships. I highly recommend working with Phil.
