"The right choice means a brighter future"

At the end of 2008, I was faced with a very difficult and important decision. After 22 1/2 years with my broker dealer, they were closing their doors. What would happen to my business? What would happen to my clients? Where would I move my business? How many clients would go with me?

I had millions in assets under management and clearly needed to make the "right" choice.

I can unequivocally say that I made the "right" choice by moving my business to Lantern Investments.

I spoke with numerous firms and had several offers in addition to Lantern's and I am very happy Lantern was who I chose for my business. Even before I moved, Lantern demonstrated the commitment and support they promised to provide me and my staff and that promise still continues today.

Lantern's commitment to client service and satisfaction as demonstrated by their fantastic compliance record along with unmatched advisor support such as research, investment tools & platforms, back-office assistance and a simple and generous compensation program make this firm a great choice to move and grow your business. Your clients will be very happy.

Being in the securities business for nearly twenty-five years has taught me one valuable lesson. The people you work with are more important than the name on the door. Unlike multi-national brokerage houses with thousands of brokers, I prefer a smaller more family-like work atmosphere, where people are not only available to help out, but happy to do so. Lantern Investments, Inc. is one of those firms. In business for over fifteen years, Lantern is expertly run, backed by their knowledge and experience. Lantern feels like a family because it is run by a family, as a family. This family atmosphere even extends to its clients, who are given the highest level of personal service and attention.

Just the way it used to be before investing strayed from a personal, one-on-one relationship to just another "big business", Lantern has an atmosphere more akin to a local neighborhood business, rather than a multi-national brokerage. Lantern is a full service brokerage firm that offers all of the investment products and opportunities of the larger firms, only with a more personal touch.
