About Me

John White specializes in guiding others to financial independence and a work-optional lifestyle.

With more than 35+ years of experience as a financial advisor, Mr. White understands the intrinsic value and importance of service to others. This led him to create his panoramic planning process, the Guidepost FORMula™, which empowers and educates his clients about the many paths to financial security.

Born in Sumter, South Carolina and raised in Hartwell, Georgia, John is a Southerner through-and-through. After graduating from high school in 1966, he attended North Georgia College and then the University of West Georgia, where he earned his Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration in 1970. His time on the Blue Ridge Rifles, a special drill team at North Georgia College remains one of his fondest memories.

When he isn’t with clients, Mr. White enjoys hunting, fishing, and tennis. He often travels with his wife and soulmate, Kim Purser White, and is a devoted family man, with a son, stepson, and three beautiful grandchildren.
