Raymond Edwards

Former Partner of Aspiriant

Meet Raymond

What do you enjoy most about wealth management?

Working with so many talented and highly-motivated professionals in a collaborative environment.

What quality of yours makes you best suited to do what you do?

I'm a professional skeptic. It's not enough to believe that something works or is appropriate for a client. I need to understand why.

What do you love to do outside of work?

Watch sports, especially college football, professional basketball, and Formula 1 racing.

What’s the most influential book you’ve read?

Let's Get Real or Let's Not Play. It defines an honest approach to transforming the client-consultant relationship into a true mutual commitment.
