Member Spotlight: Douglas Ramsey, CFP®
Q: Tell us about yourself!
A: I’m a West Coast transplant that absolutely loves living in Columbus! I’ve lived downtown for 13 years and I feel like it’s an amazing time to live in this great city. There’s so much to do and it’s all close by. I’m in business for myself and I help manage the finances for a few families and businesses.
I help answer the two most frequently asked questions by our clients:
- Am I going to make it?
- Do I have any financial blind spots?
Q: Why did you join GETDOT as a member? What inspired you to volunteer?
A: I found that the organization and I shared some of the same values, i.e. donating and spotlighting charities that focus on children, meeting new people and having fun!
Q: What was the best concert you ever attended?
A: I’m dating myself here, it would have to be Monsters of Rock. Also, Lady Gaga was pretty phenomenal.
Q: Who would you most like to swap places with for a day and why?
A: It would be Stephen Hawking if he were alive. To experience his profound intellect and understanding of the universe we live in.
Q: For what are you most grateful?
A: I’m most grateful for wonderful wife and stepson. They teach me how to be a better husband and stepfather, usually without me asking.
Q: What networking advice do you have for GETDOT members?
A: Don’t skip any of our events. You never know who you’ll meet that may become a friend, a client or an employer/employee.
