For the fourth consecutive year, Richard Paulsen has been recognized by Forbes as one of the nation’s Top Financial Security Professionals—ranking #1 in Nevada and #30 nationwide. His goal is to serve clients with unmatched excellence, so this award is a reflection of the real value he delivers to his clients. He strives to continue to prioritize providing reliable solutions and guidance to his clients.
He was chosen as one among a very small group of insurance professionals in the state to receive the recognition this year. The list features a ranking of the best insurance professionals whom families rely on for wealth preservation and protection. Financial Security Professionals were selected by an independent research firm based on various qualitative and quantitative data and one simple notion: “Would we recommend these professionals to a family member or friend?”.
