Why did you decide to partner with Central Links Golf?
“In my opinion, CLG does a first-class job of fostering an amazing golf environment. I think our brands align, since many of my clients also golf, and thought it would be fun to get more involved.”
What is your favorite part about the SLAT?
“It’s a tie between the mental challenge of having to post a score and the amazing people both participating and running the tournaments.”
Who introduced you to golf? Any favorite golf memories?
“My Dad introduced to me golf when I was young. In the past, I took it for granted, but it was fun looking back waking up early on the weekends to be the first group out with my Pops and his friends. I also enjoyed the trips playing high school golf and competing. I once had a hole in one while on a business trip in Los Angeles, with rental clubs of all things! “
How can you compare the game of golf to financial planning?
“You can draw many similarities between the two. I think the most important one is just like a round of golf can go in many directions so too can a financial plan. Many advisors get it wrong in calling a financial plan a “road map,” it’s not. A financial plan is a living breathing document that needs attention and adjustments as things change. Just like a golfer needs to be able to adapt to weather, swing glitches, low scores, high scores, etc.”
Jake is very passionate about financial literacy and shares valuable content on social media and on his podcast “Upticks”. Connect with Jake on Instagram, YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn.
New to SLAT this year will be a season-long Race to the Falcon Cup that will begin on April 18 at Prairie Highlands Golf Club in Olathe.
