meet our Founder: Doug Richards

what does it all Mean?

Early in his career Doug had a love of learning and questioning instilled in him.  He has completed the Chartered Life Underwriter (CLU) and Chartered Financial Consultant (ChFC) designations from the American College as well as the Certified Financial Planner (CFP®) designation from the College of Financial Planning.  It is this love of learning and questioning that pushed Doug to develop the Four Possibilities ™ Analysis and the LTCProjector.
Married with two sons, two dogs and a cat who barely tolerates him, Doug and his family live in Western Lane County and enjoy the outdoors.  For fun Doug loves to go to Hawaii or most anywhere else where he can feel the sand between his toes and the sun on his face.
Outside of his practice Doug is heavily involved in the community.  He has served in various positions on the board of Bridgeway House since shortly after its inception back in 2003.  Doug is the Troop Committee Chair for Boy Scout Troop 54 in Veneta, and is the past president of the Greater Oregon Chapter of the Society of Financial Service Professionals and the Rotary Club of Fernridge.

 After reviewing a number of 401(k) plans, the vast differences in fees and services inspired Doug to challenge the traditional paradigm.  “In Great Britain retirement plan fees cannot exceed three quarters of a percent and commissions are illegal.  After learning this I knew things could be different here too!” 
 In 1993 Doug Richards entered the Financial Services Industry after completing a bachelor of science degree at the University of Oregon where he majored in Economics and Political Science.  With clients throughout the Western United States Doug has a diverse practice working with individuals and institutions.
