A Little Bit of History

1999 – American Express Financial Advisors

At the ripe old age of 20, Ricky got his start as a financial planner during the dot-com era. Ricky was trained in the financial planning culture at American Express Financial Advisors and built a successful practice in his 10-plus years at the company. This is where the foundation was established for his current financial planning practice and principles.

2009 – Co-Founded HBA Wealth Advisors

After the 2008 market crash, Ricky formed a fee-based, independent Registered Investment Advisory (RIA) firm with Chris Haydel. Ricky established relationships with Fidelity, TD Ameritrade, Charles Schwab, as well as many other custodians. He established the Alternatives platform for HNW and Accredited Investor Clients and spearheaded the “Networking for a Cause” series of events to raise over $100k for local nonprofit charities.

2021 – Founded Favor Wealth Advisors

Ricky’s practice has grown to become its own independent RIA. Favor Wealth is dedicated to helping clients through values-based financial planning, proven investment strategies, and first-class personal service.
