We Work with Middle Class Families
New Horizons was founded in 1982 by Robert Giarraffa to help clients make their lives more enjoyable. Originally a chemist for 15 years, Bob would do retirement planning for co-workers in his spare time for fun before Financial Advisor was even a career. He decided to follow his passion, obtaining his MBA, and went to work in a brand new industry.
Over 35 years later, the firm has grown into a team of professionals with more than 100 years combined industry experience and clients across over 35 states.
We focus on Middle Class Families with The Enjoy More BlueprintTM, our process designed specifically for you.
