I have been living in Corona Del Mar for 40 years

An avid entrepreneur finds his happy place watching the sunset over the Pacific Ocean. Right out of college, Richard and a couple of his fraternity brothers started the Cask and Cleaver chain of steak houses in California. They were young and committed to working long hours for several years to see the chain grow to 30 restaurants and finally sold the business.

Seeing the world together

Living a full life and doing what they love meant finding a way to fund their travels. Mario had been working full-time since he was twelve years old and never stopped until he retired from his role as a motion picture technician. After the loss of his first wife, and mother of his three children at an early age, Mario was only focused on providing for his family. After several years, he finally met Veronica, an elementary school teacher and now wife of 24 years. After they both retired, they started planning how they wanted to live out their golden years and agreed that it was all about traveling the world. They just needed to figure out how they were going to fund it.

Taking the first step of inquiry was the hardest part. Once we spoke with the advisor assigned to assist us, it was smooth sailing from that point onward. Every question we posed was answered to our satisfaction.

It was a very pleasant experience. At first we were kind of intimidated when the sales person briefed us on the volume of documents, and whether we could sign them from home. He explained how that could be done. When the document came up, he guided through the process very professionally, very patiently. If he could not answer the question we had he would get back to us in a timely manner — he was very punctual and very understanding, did a fine job explaining the process, the financial end, the benefits, and prepared us for the closing. At no time did he exhibit any pressure, but explained the options and the benefits.
