My entire family is deeply grateful for Glen Michel. A number of years back, my elderly father was losing a lot of money in the stock market. I tried to get him to reallocate his portfolio, but he refused. At my wits end, I reached out to Glen for help. Glen met with my father and earn his complete trust. Glen recommended a strategy which would keep my father in his home by providing consistent cash flow for the rest of his life. Glen was directly involved in ensuring my father lived out his years without financial stress. What we did not know was the surprise my siblings and I received after our father passed years later. Glen wrote the policy so that each of us received an unexpected payout from the policy. More importantly, Glen was there for us to help us through this difficult time. He did not let us work with the insurance company, he simply took care of everything. Glen, you gave my father many years of peace and happiness. Thank you.
