In 1972, after returning home from Vietnam, David's father, Dave Eck, Sr. learned his uncle had sold him an over-priced whole life insurance policy, which would leave his wife and family destitute should something happen to him. Realizing he and countless others were being exploited, his passion became helping them avoid the same mistake.
Under the tutelage of a fellow Army officer, Dave was licensed and started a lifelong campaign to teach families how money works. Over the years, Art Williams, Larry Burkett, Dave Ramsey, and others have popularized those same practical principles.
"I believe that through knowledge and discipline, financial peace is possible for all of us." - Dave Ramsey
Today, half a century later, David Eck and the Oakstreet Financial team continue the tradition of easy-to-understand financial solutions designed to help clients make educated decisions about their financial goals.
