Preferred Retirement Options

Preferred Retirement Options, Inc. is a Registered Investment Advisor offering independent investment advice to individual investors and businesses throughout Idaho and Wyoming. We provide ongoing investor education classes designed to offer each client a foundation of investment principles and provide peace of mind regarding their investments. Jim Hancock is the President of Preferred Retirement Options, Inc. Jim began his career in the financial services industry in 1994 after successful careers in marketing and business consulting in Southern California. He has taught seminars throughout the United States and Canada to small businesses and investors for over thirty years. Jim got into the investment and retirement planning field to help people plan for a successful retirement. He was drawn to the public school teacher niche because he is a certified schoolteacher and recognized the lack of opportunities for teachers to effectively save for retirement. Since becoming an investment advisor Jim has advised thousands of schoolteachers in Idaho and Wyoming. Jim is an avid supporter of free markets and believes strongly that capitalism not only increases wealth for everyone, it enhances our personal freedoms. Wall Street believes the free market to be inefficient and seeks to exploit the belief through questionable investing techniques like selective stock picking, market timing and chasing past returns. Often investors receive conflicting messages that can leave them frustrated, upset, and powerless. We are committed to telling investors the truth about investing and helping them overcome the barrage of information that they receive from the financial industry and the media. We utilize Free Market Investment Strategies based on Nobel Prize-winning economic theories. This disciplined approach to lifetime investing provides the investor with the academic foundation upon which to achieve peace of mind regarding investments.
