Steve Pierce is an investment manager, born & raised in Ann Arbor, MI. He’s also a classical singer. In 1993, music inspired him to go to New York City. In 1994, practicality told him to go to Wall Street. He’s been singing his whole life, but started performing professionally after he arrived there. He’s so passionate about music that he put it into his logo. This passion spills-over and embraces people. His logo’s pf stands for Pierce Financial, but appears in the same font as volume notations in written music. p is the musical abbreviation for piano, which is Italian for soft, while f is short for fortè, meaning loud. The “hairpins” crescendo symbol is shorthand for the same soft-to-loud progression. It would be redundant, if it’s purpose here weren’t to emphasize the expansive nature of things -how love, relationships, wisdom, and investment in universal enterprise grow over lifetimes. Inspired by his father’s stewardship of resources that allowed him to retire young and establish a legacy of generosity felt by his children and grandchildren, alike, Steve wants to help others do the same. His 15 year old son, Benjamin Charles Pierce’s accidental, tragic death on Election Day, 2016 made plain the brief and fleeting nature of life. He is a valuable enhancement to your investment aspirations, and looks forward to helping you!

"The lessons aren’t about wealth or fame or working harder and harder. The clearest message that we get from this 75-year study is this: Good relationships keep us happier and healthier. Period (Robert Waldinger, Director, Harvard Happiness Study).”

“"There isn't time - so brief is life - for bickerings, apologies, heartburnings, callings to account. there is only time for loving - & but an instant, so to speak, for that (Samuel L. Clemens 'Mark Twain', Letter to Clara Spaulding, August 20, 1886).”
