Jim Silbernagel

President

Jim, creator of Real Wealth Group and host of our monthly webinars, is a financial advisor himself with 40 years of experience in the financial industry. Ever since reading the published reports of a negative savings rate in our country, Jim has had a passion to improve our nation’s financial literacy.

His mission through Real Wealth Group is to be a positive catalyst for change and to motivate fellow industry professionals to spread the word. He understands the concerns and questions that both clients and advisors have, and brings solutions and answers to the table with Real Wealth. To continue to spread this message, Jim travels around the country speaking on various financial topics, including CPE and CE sessions. He is also passionately active with industry gamechangers like MDRT TOT and NAIFA.

Joanne Silbernagel

Joanne is fantastic, and the perfect person to lead the Real Wealth Team along with her husband, Jim. Joanne has been the biggest supporter of our entire mission and purpose since inception, and has been involved in the development every step of the way. Joanne loves to help out with any project or challenge the team may be facing, and even runs the Main Street Philanthropy program in a local high school, which promotes financial literacy, leadership, and purpose in today’s youth.
