Larry A. Kuyper, ChFC

Larry Kuyper began his financial career in 1977 helping farm families with insurance and estate planning. He developed a proprietary system called LifePlan Estate Planning Organizer, which serves as a practical tool for his clients to plan and manage their estates.

As his clients’ growing need for investment management grew, Larry, together with a team of advisors developed LifePlan Private Portfolios. It is a private money management system that gives each individual client a personal investment portfolio. It allows clients of moderate means to have access to a private account, just as the very wealthy have enjoyed for generations.
