Meet Randal
My name is Randal DeFillippis and I'm a Financial Advisor with LPL Financial and the owner of PharmaFinancialAdvisor.com
I became a Financial Advisor for two simple reasons. The first is I like math (yes I'm a bit of a nerd), and the second is I like working with people.
I've always had a passion for Finance. Throughout college I majored in Finance and minored in Economics, graduating from Rowan University in 2013.
Since then I've spoken with literally hundreds of different people and helped numerous families to plan for and pursue their retirement goals.
I love what I do because I get to build long lasting relationships with my clients and I feel like have the opportunity to improve the lives of every single person I meet.
When it comes to managing money I understand trust is a huge factor, and I know that can take time.
But if you're looking for guidance, I'd like the opportunity to earn it.
Helping Pharmaceutical Employees
Pharmaceutical employees are in an interesting position.
They usually get many options for investment benefits, but not much one on one guidance.
They have options available, but when they call someone for guidance they get someone who:
- Doesn't know them.
- Doesn't understand their financial situation.
- Won't be there when they change jobs or retire.
That's why I started this website. My goal is to give Pharma-employees someone that can help them for the long haul.
As they say, Rome wasn't built in a day, and neither is your financial freedom.
Allow me to provide the building blocks to help get you there.
