Gary Gonzalez
Investment Advisor Representative
Gary Gonzalez has worked with firefighters since he started with Northstar Financial Planners in 2008. Before that, he served as a Miami-Dade firefighter himself, then fire lieutenant, captain, and battalion chief.
His experience with the Florida Retirement System has given him a unique position to serve Special Risk FRS employees. He helps them make smart decisions about their benefits so they can retire well.
Gary translated that information into A Firefighter’s Guide to Retiring from the Miami-Dade Fire Rescue Department, a free book that our firm is happy to send to anyone who requests a copy.
