J Singleton Financial, an independent wealth management firm offering securities through Raymond James Financial Services, Inc., is pleased to announce the appointment of Hadyn Peery, CFP® as partner, effective July 1, 2020.

An elegant celebration to help PAWS raise funding for their nine programs including spay/neuter, disaster animal response team, support of our local animal shelters, SafePaws, Mutt Mitts, the dog park and much more.

In the spirit of giving and Old Bill’s I want to take a moment to highlight a cause near and dear to my heart. Back in July I attended the Grand Teton National Park Foundation’s event for the opening for the newly revived Jenny Lake.

  We at J SINGLETON FINANCIAL focus the majority of our time on giving thoughtful financial advice to our clients. However, from time to time we find ourselves sourcing additional ways that we can have an impact in our community. We do not claim to be musical geniuses, but this past week our office got […]

J Singleton Financial would like to share with you an interview Judy had the pleasure of doing with Stephan Abrams for The Jackson Hole Connection, a podcast created and inspired by the many stories of the wildly interesting folks connected to Jackson Hole.

Below is a brief description of Judy’s interview with Stephan.

“In this week’s episode of the Jackson Hole Connection, Stephan visits Judy Singleton. Judy is a entrepreneur, financial planner, world traveler, and a former Yellowstone Parkie. Judy started visiting Jackson Hole on family road trips in the 50s. At the advice of her sister, Judy’s first solo experience out in Wyoming was working a summer in Yellowstone at the Snow Lodge in 1971. In 1984 after opening a successful candy and nut shop in Alabama, Judy decided to take her business up to Teton Village.

Stephan and Judy talk about ambition, hitch hiking, being a Parkie, opening a business, traveling by train, surviving in Jackson Hole, learning new skills, and what motivated Judy to become a financial planner.”

Early on in my career one of my mentors pressed upon me the importance of giving back. That advice has continued to pay dividends throughout my 24+ year financial career. The joy and fulfillment received in helping others remains one of my fundamental drivers. Furthermore, this giving back mentality is also shared with our partner – Raymond James Financial. Each year Raymond James dedicates the month of August to giving back and challenges all of its employees and partners to participate. Challenge accepted!

This month the JSF team volunteered at Teton Literacy Center. Hopefully you already know about this wonderful organization providing after school enrichment clubs, summer camps, tutoring, and family literacy programming – all at zero cost to their clients. I have listed their website below if you want to find out more about how they continue to make Jackson Hole a better place.

Last Thursday afternoon our office purchased the entire back to school supply list for all of TLC’s summer camp students. We set up a store of the supplies and then passed them out to the excited students. Seeing the children’s enthusiasm for learning was by far my favorite take away. Organizing events like this take a great deal of work and I would like to personally thank Laura Soltau – Executive Director, Kristin Livingstone – Associate Director, and the entire Teton Literacy Staff for helping make the afternoon possible.

 

 

Sincerely,

Judy

In researching 10th anniversary gifts I came across an article that explained the traditional anniversary gift is tin, or aluminum… That just didn’t seem to fit so I read a bit further and saw that the modern day gift is diamonds. That struck a chord with me, being that I feel like – on the 10th anniversary of J SINGLETON FINANCIAL – I am surrounded by a group of diamonds. Colleagues and clients alike.

This past week JSF celebrated 10 years with a company gathering in my back yard. It seems like yesterday that I packed everything up at the Jackson State Bank and walked across the street to open my own practice. I feel blessed not only by a great staff but also by all of the wonderful clients that I have had the pleasure of working with – some for over 20 years! On this anniversary I say thank you to everyone who has helped make J SINGLETON FINANCIAL the practice it is today. Thank you for putting your trust with us, and I look forward to seeing what the next 10 years hold.

Sincerely,
Judy

Mother’s Day is a time to take a moment and show appreciation to some of the most important people in the world – our Moms.  We celebrated a few wonderful mothers by hosting a brunch at The Club at 3 Creek  on Mother’s Day this year.  Thank you to all of the other mothers out there doing the million things that assure that this world is filled with love.  – Judy
