Quotes

“I sit down with clients all the time and, when appropriate, I’ll even share some of the mistakes I’ve made throughout my career. Just because I’m in financial services doesn’t mean I haven’t made one or two, maybe even three, bad financial decisions. I’ve made them for the same reasons I discuss with clients—it’s the psychology of money.” (14:53 | Jimmy Molloy)
“We live in a society where we're reactive to everything.” (24:27 | Jimmy Molloy)
“It’s my relationship with my clients that develops over time, adding to the value I bring to the table. The more they trust me and open up about what’s really going on, the better I can help facilitate whatever they’re trying to achieve.” (32:45 | Jimmy Molloy)
“I love getting someone on the right track. It doesn’t take a ton of my time, and if you’re engaged in your financial future, I will be too. But I can’t care more about your finances than you do.” (01:02:48 | Jimmy Molloy)
“I’m like, ‘Jimmy, people have trusted you with their life savings, if you will.’ I don’t take that responsibility lightly. It really gets to you at times, especially when the markets are volatile, and you know people are scared.” (01:06:02 | Jimmy Molloy)
