Cleve Gantt, CFP®
“Being able to help people find peace of mind about their money and reach their goals and dreams is what drives me.”
Cleve holds an undergraduate degree in General Business from Auburn University and a Master’s of Science in Community Counseling from the University of South Alabama. Cleve chose to become one of a select group of planners who have met the rigorous requirements necessary to call themselves Certified Financial Planner™ professionals. Certified Financial Planner™ professionals are qualified to help people with their investments, solve financial problems, and make a plan to achieve their goals.
Cleve’s early career included managing Healthcare at Home, a full service home medical equipment company in Mobile, Alabama. As a result of family experiences and his experiences at Healthcare at Home, Cleve has worked extensively helping people protect themselves from the risk of long-term care expenses.
