  • Ep. #76-Tracy Haraksin- F.A. discussing Juvenile Gifting & the importance of insurance with Sivonnia DeBarros, Protector of Athletes

    27 DEC 2021 · Tracy Haraksin Tracy Haraksin is a Registered Representative and Financial Advisor of Park Avenue Securities LLC (PAS), and provides a unique opportunity to strategize for one’s success. She takes an uncommon approach towards helping her clients achieve long-term financial success. Much of the traditional financial plans and strategies utilized since the 80’s have failed the American public. Breaking away from this model, Tracy creates a personalized plan beginning with a thorough understanding of her clients’ current situation. Then she helps them concretely envision “a good life for the rest of their life.” Only after understanding her clients’ current situation, goals, and aspirations for the future is she able to offer step by step guidance towards building that future. We live in a society built on “doing it yourself” – DIY. And it works in some areas of life. But it is not working in people’s finances when 57% of Americans retire with less than $25,000.
