Chainsaw McCullough is the best of the best, hands down! His expertise is second to none, but his real strength is his ability to simplify and explain complex investment and financial transactions. Besides his expertise as our Financial Advisor, he continues to understand our financial and life needs and treats us as life-long friends. Chainsaw has our deepest trust and confidence!

We've had a number of First Command financial advisors over the years while in the military and now retired. I can say that Chainsaw has been the best. He is a great communicator, always has our best financial interest at heart, and gives us a sense of ease concerning our finances. He is a great friend who has earned our trust time and time again over the years. Always well prepared, he has a great ability to simplify complex financial issues into terms that we understand. We're glad that Chainsaw is our financial advisor.

Chainsaw has been my advisor over 15 years, I wouldn’t trust my money with anyone else. He always helps us understand where our investment money is going and how to best prepare for the future. Beside that, he’s a great friend who ensures we live our life now while still preparing financially to be ready for retirement.

My husband and I met Chainsaw while on vacation and there was an immediate connection with him. We moved our investments over to him soon after and we never have regretted the decision. He has been a trusted advisor and friend. His work ethic is unparalleled and his sense of duty, honor, and faith is admirable. Trust must be earned, but with Chainsaw, it was almost immediate and he has proven himself time and time again to be one of the very good ones.

It's seldom that you can find an advisor who can be trusted to have your best interest at heart. Throughout my years of having First Command handle my investments, I always triple check my advisors' recommendations. This lasted until I had the privilege of meeting Chainsaw and having him as my advisor.

He does not assume anything and takes his time to explain and walk you through the investment quagmire. Needless to say, Chainsaw honesty and dedication has won not only my confidence but also my Wifes'. He is a down to earth advisor who's only interested in YOUR whole life's wellbeing.

I will end this review as I started, "It's seldom that you can find an advisor who can be trusted to have your best interest at heart" and with Chainsaw McCullough I have. He has removed the strain of triple checking and replaced it with a confidence and teamwork required to prosper and make the right choices in investing without the headaches.

Chainsaw is the finest of Many First Command advisors I have had over the years. In fact, I have been working with him since 2017 and he has always gone out of his way to provide service above and beyond what is required. I only have a small amount invested with First Command due to choices I have made in the past, but Chainsaw has always maximized the return that I am able to get on my investments. He has also given sound estate planning advice, and advised me on paths to reduce my tax liabilities. I consider him a personal friend, and have known him outside of the business almost as long as I have been working with him. We share many of the same interests, especially in of Church life. I trust him implicitly He also is very caring about his clients personal situations.

Chainsaw and the rest of the First Command team have been wonderful for my family and I. Chainsaw is always very friendly, family focused, and gives honest advice and feedback. I came to him with very little financial planning knowledge and he has helped guide me through planning for retirement and investing. I will be a life long customer of First Command thanks to their incredible team.

Chainsaw made me feel at ease and calmed my fearful and anxious personal perspective on the current market behavior. He has this great skill of explaining complicated concepts in a manner I can understand. He quickly responds to my messages. He helped my family create a purposeful investment plan for growth and income and to sustain our needs now and hopefully for years to come. I thank God for bringing him into our life. Not only did we find a professional and highly qualified Financial Advisor in the person of Mr. James "Chainsaw" McCullough, I believe we found a very good friend and mentor for life.
