Today he works in-person and virtually and since COVID has Federal employee and retiree clients all across the country.
Considering Nigel’s childhood, it is not surprising that he chose this field.
His father was a math teacher, mother a hospice nurse, and his stepfather a career federal employee.
From them he learned the love to teaching others how numbers, math and money work, the importance and impact of life-cycle planning decisions, and the importance civil service.
The way his stepfather cared for the military and civilian clients that he served, as well as the way the CSRS federal system cared for him when he retired, showed Nigel the lasting benefit of caring for those people who have spent their careers caring for others. Nigel endeavors to pay it forward.
Now that the FERS federal system requires its employees to take individual responsibility for their retirement plans, a solid financial plan is the best way to care for you and your family.
