Dan Goldie Profile
Former pro-tennis player, Dan Goldie is an acclaimed financial advisor who has helped hundreds of people with their retirement funds, college savings, insurance, and investments. Currently he manages approximately $700 million for individual investors and their families at his firm, Dan Goldie Financial Services.
Goldie developed an interest in finance as a child when his parents’ divorce caused him and his mother to go from an upper middle class lifestyle to economic instability in which they lived paycheck to paycheck. He dedicated himself to tennis so that he could win an athletic scholarship to Stanford where he studied economics. Going pro in tennis, he used his earnings to put himself through an MBA program at the University of California in Berkley. When bad shins prompted him to trade his tennis career for a financial career, Goldie noticed that many of the firms where he interviewed had mediocre returns despite their smart and talented staff. Doing some independent research he discovered that the old adage of hard work and talent yielding greater results didn’t apply to the world of markets.
Goldie used his newfound knowledge to develop his methodology of passive investing, coauthoring the New York Times bestseller The Investment Answer with the late veteran bond salesman Gordon Murray. The purpose of the book, much like Goldie’s own mission, is to keep information about investments simple and honest so that ordinary people can make educated decisions and achieve their financial goals.
