"Being a member of the FPANJ is invaluable for connecting with peers across the state to discuss everything from practice management to client service. The mix of virtual gatherings and in-person symposiums keeps my technical skills sharp through continuing education while providing a strong professional network. I truly enjoy being part of a community where I can learn from other experts in the financial planning world." - Kenny Ginsburg , CFA®, CFP® , Founder of TrueStar Financial Partners LLC

“My initial membership was to make sure I was aware of what was going on in the industry.  But after years of membership, Masterminds groups, forum discussions, and lots of events, the FPA actually led to connection and camaraderie with other advisors.  The camaraderie of financial planning advisors really is tough to put a price on when we’re naturally independent or alone.”—Kenneth Ashka
