As the Men of the Year issue of Philadelphia Life Magazine once noted, “Few people, if any, have a résumé quite as distinctive as the one cultivated by George McReynolds, CFP ^®.” Most people are likely unaware of his rather unconventional backstory.

His earliest memories include living in poverty in a public housing project in South Philadelphia, and having his butt kicked by bullies almost every day. It inspired him to become an action hero and protect the weak and the innocent. Mastering wealth also made his list.

Before embarking on his financial career, George spent a decade saving a dozen lives as a decorated Army MP, Paramedic and serving his community as a SWAT police officer. His dedication to service in the U.S. Army as a Military Police officer, included assignment on the security detail of the Supreme Allied Commander at NATO headquarters in Belgium and he even spent time training as an EMT and working in the emergency room at Landstuhl Army Medical Center in his spare time. His commitment to excellence also earned him numerous police commendations for taking down muggers and armed drug dealers.
