Wine and Dime Episode 5 - Financial Fitness with Mark Struthers

In this episode of Wine and Dime I will be chatting with Mark Struthers.  Mark is a Gen X father that loves using his 14 years of experience, his education, and the freedom to act as a fiduciary to help families build and preserve wealth. He specializes in planning for and paying for college, while still helping families succeed.

 

The Wine:  

 

Pinot Noir by Lakewood Vineyards:  A classic garnet color suggests the feminine elegance and youth of this wine. Aromas of cherry, plum and toast precede a medium weight palate with a sturdy tannic backbone, finishing warm with hints of stonefruit and wood. Perfect with salmon, duck, and lamb.  http://lakewoodvineyards.com/pinot-noir/

 

Malbec from South America:  

Malbec is a purple grape variety used in making red wine. The grapes tend to have an inky dark color and robust tannins, and are known as one of the six grapes allowed in the blend of red Bordeaux wine. The French plantations of Malbec are now found primarily in Cahors in South West France. It is increasingly celebrated as an Argentine varietal wine and is being grown around the world.

Amy Irvine

As a kid, I always liked numbers. I would spend hours creating math problems and solutions. Whenever I wanted to play math teacher, my brother was forced to be my student! Given my love of facts and figures, it’s really no surprise that I chose a career where I work with numbers.

I believe that you can use your dollars and cents to create and live a meaningful life unique to your own dreams and desires. I started Rooted Planning Group because I wanted to offer financial PLANNING services. Our profession has a tendency to focus on “assets under management,” but I wanted to focus on the journey of your life (what I refer to in the podcast as your financial “vineyard”). I truly believe that, like wine, life and finances have different palettes that should be celebrated and not judged.

My journey as a business owner was not a direct path; it’s more of a long and winding road. Over the course of the past 30 years, I’ve worked in various financial services positions, but I’m most proud of the ensemble of women that I’ve brought together at Rooted Planning Group.

I am the author of Uncork Your Finances and the podcast host of Money Roots.

I also co-founded the Southern Tier Women's Financial Conference in 2014, an annual event dedicated to collaboration, networking, and financial education for women.
