David Rae is not only my Certified Financial Planner and Accredited Investment Fiduciary, and has been for over 6 years, we are members of the same BNI networking chapter. which he founded. I would also point out that the majority of our members are his clients, which, in its self, is a sterling recommendation. He calls himself the “Fun Financial Planner,” and that he is, but he is also a charming, kind and considerate human being who cares very much about each one of his clients and their financial future.

You may not have financial goals. Or perhaps you have several. In either case, and especially during these pandemic times, it's crucial to shore up and assess your financial portfolio. Most folks don't want to know where their money is going, but that's just plain denial and personal negligence.
I've worked with David Rae for a good decade, and no matter what life throws at me, David's been in my corner, helping me pivot changes, but always keeping me on track with my financial goals. Experienced, knowledgeable, and responsive, I can't recommend David Rae's Financial Planning services enough!

David Rae is a financial planning powerhouse. He is on the cutting edge of his industry and he keeps himself well-versed on tax planning needs and a wide range of insurance products. Once you have used his financial planning services, you will be in great hands for planning your retirement nest egg. He not only is a great consultant, but he gives you plenty of educated options to choose. He is very personable, a great listener, and does what is in his clients' best interests at all times. Give him a call, you won't regret it!

I can't recommend David Rae strongly enough!!! I am a medical provider. I spend my time focusing on how to get the best results for my patients. I can't take time away from my job to check on my investments, how the stock market is doing, or if my portfolio is being handled correctly. David does a way better job than I ever could.
I trust David 1000% and the results speak for themselves. When I am not at work I can breath easy knowing my finances and my retirement are in good hands. That way I can surf and enjoy the time I have off.
David is warm and personable and is a pleasure to talk to. The

I began working with David over a decade ago. Together we weathered the financial storms of 2008 and my account not only recovered, it thrived. Now, due to the health of my beloved Wendy, I have the necessary funds to take care of her. Thank heavens David was taking care of my portfolio. He's the best!

David Rae is by far the best financial planner in Los Angeles. My wife and I have been using him for about 9 years and just feel better knowing that genus there managing our finances
We started with him during the financial crisis and he helped calm our nerves and make smart rational financial decisions which have really paid off !!!
We have since bought a house and added kids into the mix. With David's guidance we didn't go nuts financially and have stayed on track for our goals
We can't say enough about how great David has been for us. We are happy we hired him as our trusted fiduciary financial

David helped me put together a financial road map to get on track for my financial goals, including buying my first house, which I'm really looking forward to!
It's great to have a goto person for any financial questions that may come up along the way.
I feel confident David can help get from where I am now to where I want to be .
David is a Fiduciary and a Certified Financial Planner which I keep hearing from people is not always the case.

Trusting someone with one's finances is a critical decision. Personally I am very new to the investment world and did my homework before choosing David Rae. He has far exceeded my expectations. He is a gentleman of great wisdom, experience and integrity. I have been extremely satisfied with his level of professionalism and responsiveness. He really took the pain out of finding the right investment venue, and only after weeks of opening my account, my money is working for me. I go to sleep with a calm mind. Now that's invaluable.

Ok so David Rae is the best. Not only is he a fabulous financial planner, he is a great person to know. He somehow take finances (which I HATE) and make planning for my future enjoyable.

Just had my annual review, and he helped get me update on all the details of DOMA and how that affected my taxes and financial plan. ON his advice I went back to my CPA and refiled my taxes as married with my partner (now souse), this literally save me over $10,000 in taxes for the past 2 years alone.

Beyond that he has me in what seem like amazing investments to fund my financial plan and keep me on track

David Rae is my agent at Trilogy and I could not be more pleased and impressed. He is ALWAYS reachable via phone (which is a luxury in today's world) and has been instrumental in creating my "roadmap" to a healthy retirement. During these troubling times, he has also helped ease my anxiety and guided me toward the right investments. Together we have made some sound choices. On a personal level, he is a great friend and charitable by nature, having given so much of his time, money, energy and resources to AIDS LifeCycle. No matter how bad the economy gets, there is always someone

I have known David Rae for several years now, and have had an opportunity to see how he helps his clients. I'm very impressed with his personal service, and highly knowledgeable presentation. He explains things, he answers questions, sometimes multiple times, to make sure that his clients UNDERSTAND all of the details. I would feel very comfortable referring to him. Additionally, David is a true philanthropist, giving of his time and dollars to various charitable causes. Overall, an excellent choice to do business with.
