Barry A. Rucks CFP®
Barry A. Rucks is a private wealth advisor. Barry holds the CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ certification and has spent the last 25 years as a financial advisor, partnering with clients to create personalized financial plans that reflect their own unique circumstances.
Barry was brought up in the Midwest, where he enjoyed the art of the hunt while collecting pennies with his grandmother as a young child. The values of self-sufficiency and helping others he learned as a child were strengthened over many years of 4-H and gardening, where preserving the fruits of his labor helped him learn to focus on looking beyond the present and planning for the future. He continues to use these values to help his clients better understand their finances to this day.
