I’m John Mears. This is me with my wife Janel and our kids Kyle, Hannah, Jenna, and Chloe. As you can see, the kids were blessed to inherit their mom’s looks, not mine. I did my undergraduate work at Cal State Northridge, and I’ve done some post graduate work coaching football at Saugus High School.

I’ve been an Enrolled Agent for over 25 years. Enrolled Agents are licensed to represent taxpayers before the Internal Revenue Service.  They have to take a two day, four part test encompassing all aspects of taxation.  I may not know much, but I definitely know how to fill out a tax return.

I’ve also been a Registered Investment Advisor for the last three years, as well as having my securities license for the last 20 years. I built my practice to provide comprehensive planning services to people who seek a “work optional” lifestyle.

If you’re looking for the next amazing stock pick, then I’m not for you. The stock market reacts to news, and – as you already know – news is completely random, and unpredictable. Therefore, the stock market is random, and unpredictable.

If you’re looking for someone who will guarantee you high returns and low risk, keep looking. I am not that guy.

What I WILL do is provide you with impartial analysis and advice that puts YOUR interests ahead of mine. It’s called a fiduciary vow, and I take it VERY seriously.
