Scott K. Laue

JD, CFP®

Financial Advisor / Member Owner

Part of the reason I became a financial advisor is directly related to inorganic chemistry in my freshman year, which ended my orthodontist aspirations. I don't like to sleep much, as I might miss something. The beauty of life is that you have control over your attitude.
