INVESTOR STORIES
PRESIDENTS’ CIRCLE
FeaturedMember: Gary Pinkerton
“My primary role as a wealth strategist is to help clients stabilize their business and family finances and get them moving consis- tently and predictably in the positive direc- tion; I help them build a foundation they can lean on when things like COVID-19 and other unexpected events stress their financial re- sources. Immediately after achieving that, the question they pose is ‘Can you help me safely grow my finances from this new safe founda- tion?’ They are looking for ways to invest their resources that offer both strong returns and a high likelihood of success, and the biggest risk to failing is the person you entrusted with the money, not the deal itself. The adage ‘Never do a good deal with a bad person’ is some of the best advice I have ever received. So, I’ve devoted myself to being in groups with the best people to connect with my clients. No question, that’s the Think Realty Presidents’ Circle,” Pinkerton said.
T
he Think Realty Presidents’ Circle attracts the best of the best — real estate investors and entrepre -
neurs with extensive backgrounds and experience from which all members can benefit. The Circle meets several times each year where members share knowledge, net - work, and inspire continued success. This month, our featured member is Gary Pinkerton, a wealth strategist, veteran, entrepreneur, speaker, author, and real estate investor. He has degrees in engi - neering from the US Naval Academy and the University of Illinois, and 25 years’ experience as a Navy nuclear submarine officer. He commanded the attack subma - rine USS TUCSON, was a Pentagon Division Director for the Joint Chiefs, and a Senior Ethics Professor at the Naval Academy, retiring as a Captain. He has extensive experience in life insurance, real estate, and alternative investments. Pinkerton said he joined the Think Realty Presidents’ Circle because he was searching for strategic relation - ships “with only the most ethical, high-performing, and like-minded leaders in real estate” for the benefit of his clients and his business.
