Having a Good Caddy in Golf is like Having a Financial Advisor who Understands You

Hey guys Douglass Ergood here, I am former division one golfer at The University of North Carolina and now I am a Financial Advisor with Ergood Wealth Management at Janney. Welcome back to teeing up your finances! From the perspective of someone watching golf on tv, a caddy doesn’t look all that important. But from a player’s perspective however, having a caddy they can trust under pressure can make all the difference. A good caddy helps a player to make sound decisions on the golf course. When emotions are high sometimes even the best golfers can make silly decisions when on their own. But, when a good player has a caddy who knows their personality and their strategy for each hole, they can be guided towards decisions that are in their best interests. Like having a good caddy, having a good financial advisor you can trust can make all the difference. When emotions are high and you have to make big financial decisions, having someone who knows your goals and your personality can really help you make decisions that are in your best interest. If you are looking for someone to help you in your financial journey, I would love to have a conversation to see if we would be a good fit for you. In golf, as in life, it is the follow through that can make all the difference.
