Financial Perspectives is an independent, fee-only financial advisory firm with two offices conveniently located in the San Francisco bay area. We provide unbiased advice for every aspect of your financial life. Recognizing that everyone is unique in their needs and desires, we take the time to get to fully know and understand what is important to our clients. Above all, we pride ourselves on maintaining long-term, lasting relationships built on integrity and fostered by trust.

As a provider of broad-based financial advice, our primary focus remains on retirement and investment management. Through our specialization in these areas, we bring our expertise to bear on helping clients achieve the core wealth objectives of asset accumulation, capital preservation, income generation and the worry-free transference of wealth.

With the frantic pace of today’s lifestyle, people may find they have neither the time, inclination nor knowledge base to best handle the financial aspect of their lives. Unfortunately neglect can be detrimental to the success of obtaining your objectives. Ultimately we provide clients with the freedom to concentrate on the more important things in life – like family, personal success and the pursuit of their own passion – while we spearhead the endeavor of meeting their financial goals.

The recent market collapse has left investors facing an uphill battle. Losses in their accounts have left them questioning whether or not they can meet their financial goals. As a result, people are looking to protect the assets they have left and limit future losses. We have entered an unprecedented time in history that is comparable to nothing we have experienced in the past. To survive and thrive, one will need to be open to new ideas that are forward thinking and will address what lies ahead. What has worked in the past will not necessarily be successful going forward. As such, we offer unique perspectives and strategies to help you guide you through this uncharted territory.... See More

Patricia Jennerjohn, CFP, MBA
If you're like most people, you believe that you have to work hard for your money. However, the truth is that money is also there to work hard for you.
I help my clients learn that money is here to support and serve them. The process helps you gain what I call "financial confidence."
You're smart, educated, aware, and savvy. And sure, you could do your own financial plan. Maybe even manage your investments. But is this the best use of your smarts and your time?
Yes, you want it done well. But, it turns out, you don't want to do it yourself. You appreciate real expertise, but in financial matters, you don't want to be the expert. You don't have more money than you know what to do with, but you want to know what to do with what you have.
Understanding what you want to accomplish can be hard to figure out on your own. I believe it's more enlightening to explore your aspirations with a knowledgeable partner. Someone that will help you think creatively about where you want to go.
I'd like to be your financial planning partner. I'll take you seriously, but with a relaxed approach. I'll collaborate with you, rather than issuing you a predesigned set of recommendations. I'll work to understand what's really important to you. And, help keep you focused on real goals-which is making your plan work, not beating the market.... See More
