About Samuel Chon

I help employees of private companies, public agencies, school districts, and the federal government turn their workplace benefits into a clear, personalized retirement income plan. As a Senior Field Manager at Appreciation Financial, I work with clients in California, Nevada, Arizona, Texas, Colorado, Florida, and New Jersey, most within 5 to 15 years of retirement or already retiring, and walk them through how their pension or employer benefits, Social Security, and personal savings fit together and where gaps may exist.My approach starts with the full picture, not a product. I explain benefits, options, and survivor elections in plain language, with no pressure and no jargon. From there, I help clients decide what to do with their 401(k), 403(b), 457, IRA, or Roth IRA balances, protect a spouse’s income, and reduce exposure to market swings. Where appropriate, I use guaranteed income solutions such as fixed indexed annuities to build income designed to last as long as they do.I also lead and coach a team of agents who serve clients with this same clear, planning-first approach, and I’m building a coaching platform that helps more agents serve clients with consistency and care.What drives me is simple: “People spend their careers taking care of others. My job is to make sure someone takes care of them.” My goal is to replace uncertainty with a plan, so every client can retire with confidence. If you’re ready to see the full picture of your retirement, I’d love to sit down with you.
