Steve C

CFP®

Dover, DE

CSG Financial

Steve has always felt that his role as an advisor should exclusively be to serve those who have put their trust in him and to do it to the best of his abilities, by any means necessary. So, he decided to take a step that many advisors are increasingly considering: 1. Transitioning to a fee-only model. 2. Requiring that all clients are always served in a fiduciary capacity. 3. Taking ownership and control of his practice. He believes this approach realigns his incentives with his clients' best interests and empowers him to develop financial plans free from undue influence. In his free time, Steve also serves on the board of the Societa Da Vinci, a local non-profit focused on providing educational grants and supporting cultural events around Italian heritage. Steve is also an avid traveler and hiker. One of his life’s goals is to visit all 63 US national parks among various other outdoor adventures like shark diving.
