About

1st & 3rd Investments provides discretionary portfolio management and financial planning to individuals, families, small businesses, and retirement plans, and also offers pension and corporate retirement consulting as well as educational seminars and workshops. The firm states that financial planning is provided to clients and prospects at no additional charge and delivers quarterly account statements and annual performance reports.

The firm’s investment process blends fundamental security research with technical and charting analysis, cyclical assessment, and proprietary security pricing inputs, and it uses corporate rating services among its information sources. Strategies described in the brochure range from long-term and dividend-growth approaches to short-term trading, market-timing techniques, option writing, margin use, and participation in IPOs when appropriate.

What is distinctive is the combination of a small, boutique advisory platform with active trading and market-timing elements and direct use of security-level ratings and pricing in its decision-making, features that are less common among similar supported firms. The firm’s principal maintains active outside employment as a commercial airline pilot and prior military service is noted in the brochure; the firm discloses that this employment occupies a significant portion of the principal’s time but does not impede client service.

Not sure where to start?

We'll help you think it through—whether you ultimately need an advisor or not. Warmer helps you compare advisors clearly, so you can choose with confidence.

Find your advisor

For advisor listings, we rely on sources including public filings and data provided by advisors, and we cannot guarantee that all information is current or accurate. Advisors are independent and may not have reviewed or updated this information. Please review an advisor’s Form ADV and do your own diligence before deciding whether to work with them.

Advisor matching and introductions are provided by FinanceHQ LLC (“FHQ”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Warmer and an SEC-registered investment advisor. We receive compensation from certain participating advisors for introductions or referrals. This creates a conflict of interest because we have an incentive to recommend advisors who compensate us, including those who pay us more. You pay no fee to use our matching service, and advisor fees are not increased because of a referral or introduction. We do not review the ongoing performance of advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.

By using our service, you agree to our Terms of Service and Advisory Agreement, and acknowledge our Privacy Policy. Please review FHQ’s ADV Part 2A and Form CRS. Logos provided by Logo.dev
