Mark Rowe, CFP

For the last 20 years, I've had the pleasure of helping my clients preserve, grow, utilize, and eventually, transition their wealth to heirs and charities. For the 20 years prior to that, I served as an officer with the United States Air Force. I believe a financial advisor owes each client certain obligations and that everyone working with a financial advisor deserves an advisor who meets the following minimum standards: 1. Only makes recommendations that are in the client's best interest. 2. Able to explain in clear language the pros and cons of any recommendation. 3. Open and upfront about costs to the client and how the advisor gets paid. 4. Responds promptly to phone calls, texts, and emails. 5. Follows through on promises. So that I could be the best advisor that I'm capable of being, over 18 years ago I completed the requirements for becoming a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER professional. Long before that, I also earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Technology and Management from Arkansas State University and a Master of Science degree in Aviation Management from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. When I'm away from my office, I live on a small farm near Beech Grove, Arkansas with my wife Anne, and my adult son Philip (Asperger's Syndrome). We also have a daughter, Julie and a son-in-law, Doug who live and work in St Peters, Missouri. My family and I are active members of the Commissary church of Christ. We have the privilege of sharing our lives with several horses, dogs, cats, chickens and occasionally, some of our neighbor's sheep!
