Our Stories

John Hathaway

John Hathaway, CFS, RFC© joined Money Concepts as a financial advisor in 2003, and earned his Certified Fund Specialist designation in 2005 and his RFC in 2013. Over the last twenty years, he has helped individuals and families with financial planning and investment management, and has hosted educational seminars in his local community covering personal finance, job transitions, saving for college, and planning for retirement.  

John's Background

I decided to enter the wealth management and financial planning field after many frustrating years with my employer. While the job security and steady income was important for my family, I did not have the greater sense of feeling that I was making a difference. My wife, Melanie, was employed with a non-profit agency at the time and came home every day feeling good about her purpose and community impact. 
 
After carefully reflecting on my life and several discussions with friends and family, I chose to turn my attention to something where I can really change the quality of life. I have always had a gift to listen and offer genuine guidance. Those gifts coupled with my passion for numbers, research, degrees in finance and economics, and sincerely wanting to help, led me to financial planning. 
 
Today, I enjoy a life filled with meeting people and working with them to determine the best approach for them to accomplish their life's dream. I sincerely believe that everyone deserves sound financial planning and I appreciate being able to make a difference. We all have gifts to share and if I am given an opportunity to help someone in an area that I am passionate and knowledgeable about, I will be there for them. 
 
My office and team are now located in my hometown of Colchester, Connecticut, where I really feel that I am a part of my community and look forward to helping many more individuals and families take pleasure in a fulfilled life.

Heather Blanchard

Heather's Background 
 
My interest in personal finance began while working part-time as a bank teller to support myself through graduate school.  My original goal was to become a museum educator because I loved the idea of interacting with others who were curious to learn more about the world. After earning my history degree, I continued to work in financial services. I found that interacting with clients was rewarding, and it was particularly inspiring to see the impact that improved financial literacy, professional guidance, and a supportive team had on their lives.  

Now, as a financial advisor, I am passionate about my role as my clients’ educator and coach, helping clients confront challenges and showing them how they can use their own resources to unlock their potential for creating wealth, independence, and the freedom to choose their own path.
