A good financial planner plans your future for you. A great financial planner guides you with careful experience to the right decisions for you. This guidance shouldn't be concrete. It should be ever evolving based on the challenge in front of you. Just like a caddy advising their player on a challenging hole, so does a great financial planner advise their client.

On today's episode, we are pleased to welcome on the podcast Russ Holden, CEO of Caddy for a Cure.

Caddy For A Cure is a dream-turned reality for Russ Holden, program CEO. It was Russ’s touch with Fanconi Anemia in the summer of 1993 that ultimately sparked a passion and the fire to start Caddy For A Cure, developing it into the program that it is today.

Holden has been a PGA of America Class A golf professional since 1985 and had the great fortune of being the Head Golf Professional at Woodfield Country Club in Boca Raton, FL. During his time at Woodfield, Holden befriended resident and two-time Masters Champion, Bernhard Langer. From this friendship, Russ began working on the PGA TOUR, caddying both full- and part-time for the German Hall of Fame golfer from 1991 until 2006.

After twenty two highly successful seasons on the PGA TOUR and with the support of virtually all of its players, the Caddy For A Cure concept continues to grow.

Enjoy!
