Thomas W. Ruggiero serves as a Managing Partner for Ruggiero Group Benefits Agency, LLC and is President of Ruggiero Investments. After an extensive career in the aeronautical industry, he took the knowledge and business acumen he had developed there and put them to good use in the financial services industry.
Tom believes both knowledge and education are critical parts of the advisor-client relationship. He has learned the importance of developing a very clear understanding of the client’s needs and goals by establishing a solid, yet fluid plan of action in order to achieve them. This has allowed Mr. Ruggiero to help clients not only plan out retirement but also be financially prepared for life’s unexpected events. Tom’s personal satisfaction comes from helping people protect the assets they have worked hard to accumulate over years of hard work. Mr. Ruggiero works closely with business owners to make sure that benefits are established properly and that those business owners are receiving the
best options available.
"Every company has a specific need to be filled. That need is going to differ from one company to the next. It is our job to fulfill the need by building a customized plan for the client. The planning phase is the most crucial step of the process; after that, putting it into action is pretty simple."
