Zubin’s definition of wealth is being free to do what you want with your time. He spends his time seeing how he can make an impact on the people he meets. Known among family and friends for his passion for finance, Zubin will discuss how to set financial priorities during dinner with friends and remind his kids about the benefits of compounding. He is also passionate about actively working with you to discover what is your definition of wealth. Zubin’s father passed away when he was very young. He watched his mother struggle and slowly make progress in moving the family toward financial security. She instilled in her two children the importance of a financial plan and knowing one’s numbers. Today, people who know Zubin know he is analytical and that numbers come easy to him. His true strengths, however, are empathy, communication, and coming up with new ideas. This helps him closely connect with the people he interacts with. He knows that, like his mother, many families struggle to make financial decisions and adapt their financial plans due to the lack of know-how or the cost of getting the right guidance. Having lived in Washington DC for over 15 years, Zubin has many friends and neighbors who work for the Federal Government. In his discussions with them, he has concluded that their financial planning process is more complicated than the average plan. Zubin has immersed himself in these details so he can help maximize the benefits federal employees deserve. Zubin worked in the Merchant Marines for almost 10 years. He traveled to over 40 countries with an international crew on oil tankers and cargo ships. His favorite voyage lasted 14 months which started in Shanghai, China and sailed around the world a time and a half crossing the Panama and Suez canals twice. When he is not at work, Zubin enjoys traveling, cooking, fostering cats, and, currently, watching shows on Winston Churchill and the historical events leading to World War II.
