HAVE YOU RECENTLY LOST A SPOUSE?

Overwhelmed. That’s the most common feeling I hear from recently widowed women. There are retirement accounts to change, legal decisions to make, insurance to deal with, and plenty of small details that seem to come from nowhere.

You may not have any interest in becoming a financial expert, yet you may feel like you must in order to make the best decisions. If your spouse made the financial decisions, you may feel thrust into a new world at the same time your world has changed forever.

How helpful would it be to have a trusted guide steer you through the financial chaos? Someone who understands you may not feel like constantly making decisions? Someone focused on helping you prioritize and understand the decisions you face? Someone who helps you figure out where you can live, how to handle your savings, and helping put you in a place where you feel financially OK?

WHY YOU MATTER TO ME

Who Is The Bald Guy?

My name is Elliott Weir, the owner of III Financial. I’ve been working with clients like you since 2004. Come to think of it, it has been longer – before I officially started as a financial planner! Let me explain…

I started my career as a technology geek, having earned a Computer Science degree from Southern Methodist University (Go Ponies!). Once I graduated I secured a great job with Ernst & Young LLP as a technology consultant to Fortune 500 companies.

Then on August 20th, 1997 my life changed forever. After a brief battle with cancer, my father passed away at the age of 50. I suddenly found myself helping my mother with insurance, investments, attorneys, CPAs, and more, because my father was the one in charge of these things for the family.

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue, Or walk with kings–nor lose the common touch, If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you; If all men count with you, but none too much, If you can fill the unforgiving minute With sixty seconds’ worth of distance run, Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it, And–which is more–you’ll be a Man, my son! – “If”, Rudyard Kipling	Elliott Weir, Jr. 1947-1997

Why I Share This With You

This formative event explains a lot about who I am, about III Financial, and about what you can expect from me. I choose to work with widowed women because I want to have a meaningful and direct impact on their lives, as I did for my mother.

It took me years to piece it all together into my true calling. In that time, I continued with Ernst & Young, left to earn my Master in Business Administration (MBA) at the University of Texas’ McCombs School of Business, and spent a short while at IBM Tivoli. Then the light bulb went off and I became a financial adviser in 2004.
