About Steve Dybwad

Thank you for taking the time to visit my profile! Whether you stumbled across my website, a friend or colleague sent you my way, or you heard me speak on Safe Money Radio, I’m glad you’re here. As one of Indiana’s premier retirement planners, I help individuals and families build safe money strategies to ensure they have financial security for life. Growing up in North Dakota, and spending my teen years in Idaho meant that summer job opportunities mostly included things like moving irrigation pipe, mowing lawns, bagging groceries, and pumping gas (back when gas stations were actually service stations). I have to admit, none of those options appealed to me like the suggestion my dad made. He was a successful insurance agent, and he asked if I would like to work with him. Well, that sounded great, so he got the materials I needed to study, and at the age of 16, I got my state insurance license. I worked with my dad for a few years until I went to college, where I majored in Bible (theology). After graduation, I served 10 years in ministry at Ball State University in Muncie Indiana until circumstances lead me back into the financial world, and in 1982, I started providing financial services in Indiana. I believe the true art of financial guidance lies not so much in helping people accumulate assets, but rather lies in helping people preserve and distribute those assets over a lifetime. My clients throughout the nation enjoy highly individualized financial guidance, complemented by strategic alliances with accountants, attorneys, and other professionals that provide a multi-disciplinary approach to the planning process. When I’m not working, I enjoy reading, kayaking, spending time outdoors, and hosting friends and family.

I look forward to making your acquaintance!
