Get To Know Your Guides
When Craig Anderson was planning a backpacking trip, he knew exactly where to start. He wanted an experienced guide. The local guide he hired meticulously planned all the details before the journey. The guide prepared for any obstacle or challenge, pointing out hazards and offering shortcuts that helped Craig and his team reach their destinations more efficiently while ensuring they had the necessary tools to navigate the terrain effortlessly.
Just as Craig benefited from a knowledgeable guide for his trip, he believes that having an experienced financial advisor is crucial to navigating the complexities of retirement planning. That’s why he founded a firm whose team of advisors prioritize your financial well-being and continuously adapt to the ever-changing landscape of retirement planning. Our dedicated team is focused on helping individuals and families achieve their ideal retirements.
Craig Anderson, ChFC® President
Craig Anderson is focused on helping clients work toward their retirement dreams through a well-thought-out financial strategy for retirement.
Craig got his start in the industry in 1999, inspired by watching his father build a successful 50-year career in financial services. Following in his father’s footsteps, Craig has always led with respect, honesty, and unwavering dedication to his clients. He truly enjoys helping others reach their dreams, prepare for their futures, and feel closer to their family and friends.
A financial professional who can offer investment and insurance products and services, Craig has passed the Series 7, 63, and 65 securities exams and has life, accident, health, and long-term care insurance licenses. He graduated from Moody Bible Institute and went on to earn the Chartered Financial Consultant (ChFC®) designation through the American College of Financial Services. He’s also the author of three books: “The Benefits They Receive When Kids Work,” “Dream House Debt Free,” and “Be Rich Through Legacy Living,” and he is writing other books.
In his free time, Craig enjoys spending time with his family. He was born in Dearborn, Michigan, grew up in Caro, and has been living in southwest Michigan with his wife, Jody, since 1983. They are members of a local church and cherish time with their four grown children, as well as their spouses and many grandchildren.
Grant Hageman, CFP®, MBA Financial Advisor
When Grant was in high school, he came across Proverbs 22:7, “The borrower is the slave of the lender.” This verse sparked a lifelong desire for financial freedom and a commitment to manage his personal resources responsibly.
This was his inspiration for entering the financial industry in 2016 so he could help others protect themselves from financial worries. He loves guiding others to financial shortcuts and helping them avoid expensive mistakes.
Grant can offer investment and insurance products along with financial planning services. Grant has passed the Series 7 and 66 securities exams and holds a life insurance license. Further, Grant has obtained his Masters in Business Administration through Bethel University and has earned his CFP® (Certified Financial Planning) designation through the Boston Institute of Finance.
Grant is a lifelong resident of Berrien County. He enjoys spending time with his wife, Ashley (married in 2015), and his three children. Together with his family, he is an active member of a local church. In his free time, Grant enjoys playing piano, playing strategy games, and biking.
