Behavioral Finance by Kit Mac Nee, CFP, CRPC, AEP
We all need accurate information and dependable relationships. That’s true no matter what we’re looking for, and it’s especially true when it comes to financial planning. Kit’s clients trust her for two main reasons: They know she cares and they value her experience. This personal-professional combination gives her clients more confidence. We all seek out experts for important parts of our life. It’s about more than just money. Her expertise is about conditioning your financial life for strength, health and endurance. Kit joined Morgan Stanley as a Financial Advisor in Pasadena, CA in 2013. Prior to joining Morgan Stanley, she was with Merrill Lynch Wealth Management for nearly nine years.
On her way to becoming a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™, Kit served a community foundation in Southern California as its Director of Gift Planning. She worked with donors and local charitable organizations to gain philanthropic assets that would provide a legacy of financial resources. Today, she uses her financial-planning proficiency to serve as a volunteer, board member, and consultant to guide families and charities toward more secure financial futures.
Kit raised three children, all now grown and leading fulfilling lives in different parts of the United States. She loves traveling to visit family, including trips to Detroit, her original hometown. She lives in Santa Monica, California and travels throughout Southern California and the U.S. to support clients as well as the community groups she works with.
