Rodger Goldman comes from a family dedicated to helping investors plan for retirement. This tradition began with his father, Ralph Goldman, in 1967 and spans nearly six decades. Following in his father's footsteps, Rodger launched his own career with Lehman Brothers in New York in 1988 after earning his bachelor's degree in political science from the University of Tulsa.
With over 35 years of experience, Rodger has learned that most families are not focused on maximizing returns; they want peace of mind. They want assurance that they have sufficient assets and reliable cash flow to carry them through their lives comfortably, without financial worry. This understanding shapes his entire approach to financial planning.
Rodger creates personalized retirement and investment strategies tailored to each client's unique goals and risk tolerance. Having navigated multiple market cycles and major economic shifts throughout his career, he brings invaluable perspective to building resilient, balanced portfolios designed for stability and confidence.
Rodger has built a diverse client base spanning more than 20 states nationwide. He's assembled a dedicated team, working alongside Steffy Kaiser for the past decade and welcoming Mady Rose to provide comprehensive client service.
Rodger currently holds his Series 7, 63, and 65 securities licenses, along with Health and Variable Annuity Licenses.

Steffy is of Hmong ethnicity and was born in France. She later moved to Eagan, MN where she spent most of her childhood. In 2001, she relocated with her family to Tampa, FL where she earned her bachelor’s degree in finance from the University of South Florida, GO BULLS! That’s when she began her career with Morgan Stanley Smith Barney in 2009. In 2012, she transitioned with her team to Wells Fargo Advisors in Clearwater, FL. Steffy later moved to Jacksonville, FL, where she spent 5 years while her husband, Thomas, completed his Orthopedic Residency at UF Health.
Steffy has made her way back to Minnesota where she and Thomas are raising their 4 children, Wyatt, Kennedy, Oakley, and Colson. While their growing family keeps them busy, in their free time, they enjoy outdoor activities such as hiking, kayaking, mountain biking, skiing, and spending time with family and friends.
