Oxford Club – Pillar One Advisor
The Chairman’s Circle Advantage
Our nearly 30-year history with the Oxford Club is the bedrock of our firm, and we are deeply honored to maintain the prestigious Pillar One Advisor designation. From the very beginning, the Oxford Club’s commitment to independent, unconflicted research aligned perfectly with our own fiduciary philosophy. This is not a casual association. It is a foundational relationship that has shaped every strategy we bring to our clients.

From Oxford Club Insight to Client Strategy
Ron’s investment philosophy has been shaped by four decades of hands-on experience and a front-row seat to some of the sharpest thinking in independent finance. Through his deep ties to the Oxford Club, four thinkers in particular have had an outsized influence on how he builds and manages client portfolios today.
Alex Green’s forward-thinking optimism and ability to translate complex market dynamics into clear, actionable strategies reinforced Ron’s conviction that long-term investing is about time horizon and probability, not short-term prediction. Marc Lichtenfeld’s discipline around dividend growth and income strategies through the Oxford Income Letter directly shaped how Ron approaches cash flow planning for clients who need stability without sacrificing growth. Karim Rahemtulla, who first introduced Ron to the Oxford Club in the late 1990s, instilled a contrarian approach to risk: not something to fear, but something to measure, map, and price correctly. And Steve McDonald, editor of the Oxford Bond Advantage, gave Ron a foundational mastery of fixed income that few independent advisors can match. For Chairman’s Circle members, this depth of influence translates into a portfolio strategy built on the best independent thinking the Oxford Club has to offer.
Ron’s approach is rooted in his core values:
- Integrity: We treat our clients like family and are always up front with our clients.
- Transparency: We communicate openly and clearly, ensuring you always understand your investments.
- Efficiency: We act quickly and effectively, maximizing results with minimal hassle for you.
What to Expect
Risk Analysis in Every Move
Analyzing risk is one of our specialties. Every decision is thoughtfully considered and calculated to help protect your wealth and position you for long-term success. We do not guess. We model outcomes across multiple market scenarios before entering any position.
Portfolio Diversification
We build portfolios using a blend of stocks, bonds, preferred stocks, and T-Bills to help balance risk and maximize opportunity across changing markets. No single strategy dominates. The right mix depends on your goals, your timeline, and what the market is actually telling us.
Bond Specialist
Ron’s expertise in fixed income runs deep. Through years of featured collaboration with Steve McDonald, editor of the Oxford Bond Advantage, Ron developed one of the most thorough understandings of the bond market you will find in an independent advisory practice. Understanding bonds is not optional for a serious portfolio manager. The bond market is often the first place economic reality shows up, and that discipline informs every risk decision we make. We actively build laddered bond portfolios for clients who want conservative, reliable income.
Options Strategies to Increase Income
We utilize carefully selected options strategies designed to generate additional income and manage risk, adding value to your overall portfolio. Our proprietary Yield Forge system models covered call scenarios across bear, neutral, and bull conditions before any position is entered, giving you a level of analytical precision that most advisory firms simply do not have.
Oxford Club Collaboration
The Oxford Club is the most consistent source of independent, unconflicted investment research we have found in nearly four decades in this business. Their commitment to unbiased analysis, free from Wall Street conflicts and proprietary product pressure, is genuinely rare. Many of our strategies and philosophies are shaped by our close, ongoing connection with the Oxford Club, allowing us to bring proven, research-driven ideas directly to our clients.
Direct Communication
You work directly with our team. No call centers, middlemen, or layers, ensuring clear, responsive guidance every step of the way.
Portfolio Management
Your portfolio is managed through Interactive Brokers, the industry’s leading trading platform known for its security, advanced tools, and the lowest fees available.
