David Len Best

My name is Charles Thomas. I am a Certified Financial Planner® and founder of Intrepid Eagle Finance. We work with Christian families on their journey to financial freedom. The first time I ever taught someone about finance was on a school trip to a roller skating rink when I was in the fifth grade. I spent the bus ride teaching a classmate about the value of saving. My career has been spent around the same basic premise: help others to be wise with their finances. I have been working with people and their money for over 14 years of my career. I have had experience at global financial firms in a wide variety of roles. This diverse experience has included everything from helping people who just received their first paycheck to counseling millionaires in the financial crisis to helping large corporations provide retirement plans for their employees. I completed a double major at Appalachian State University and hold Bachelor degrees in Music and Marketing. I later earned an MBA at the University of South Carolina’s Moore School of Business. I started Intrepid Eagle Finance to serve a community I believe has unique needs. Christian families face the challenge of balancing the needs of Mom and Dad, children, work, church and other things craving resources. The financial component of this difficult balancing act can be stressful to harmonize for this kind of family. How do I know this? My family is part of this group too! That’s why I started Intrepid Eagle. I spend my days helping families like mine who value things like God, Family, and Country. I help families to find financial freedom while honoring what is important for today, tomorrow, and the future. I help families to find financial freedom while honoring what is important for today, tomorrow, and the future. I am an active supporter of independent education and homeschooling. My wife and I are active supporters of helping others get started and find success with their own homeschool journey. When I am not working with other families, I spend time with my own family. My wife Amy and I make our home in South Carolina with our three children. Our family is active in our homeschool each day where we work hard and play hard. We spend our breaks on time outdoors, playing music, traveling, and serving our church family. Visit our website to learn more about how we use technology to serve you wherever you are located.
