Joseph St.Onge, Jr., ChFC

John Hancock Financial Network

Welcome to my website!

My name is Joe St. Onge, and as a financial services professional and active member of my community, I feel I have an obligation to help individuals and families plan for their financial futures, while protecting against some of life's uncertainties.

To stay on top of my field and develop my professional skills, I have regularly attended industry training and certification programs. This includes completing the curriculum and passing the rigorous exams for the:
                                             ChFC Designation


 In addition, my academic achievements include:

Two Bachelor's Degrees from Mercer University

     Accounting and Finance

My education, experience and professional affiliations have fostered my practical approach to offering financial services and advice to my clients. Rather than just recommending a hodgepodge of unrelated products, first I will consider your specific financial goals and investment objectives.  Working together, we will formulate a strategy to help you achieve your goals.  Then, I will recommend the appropriate products and services to help you execute your strategy. 

My wife, Maureen, and I have three children (Will, Kate & Joey) and our world lovingly revolves around them!   

                       

                       Thank you for visiting our daddy's website!

Help Chart the Future of Your Family Business

The transition from one generation to the next is considered to be one of the biggest risks to the survival of a family-owned business. A thoughtful succession strategy not only outlines when and how ownership should be transferred but also takes tax implications, family relationships, and other sensitive issues into account.

Put It in Writing

A high level of job satisfaction is fairly typical of business owners, but it can also be a hindrance if it keeps them from thinking about a planned exit strategy. A written exit plan could help you avoid surprises.

Using Living Benefits for Retirement Income

Many Americans are finding it difficult to predict how much they can save by retirement. Because traditional pensions are available to just one out of three workers today, a potential way of creating a guaranteed income stream in retirement is to purchase the guaranteed living benefits that are available with some variable annuities.
