Peter at Mission Wealth continues to do a great job of managing our retirement portfolio since I retired in 2021. We hold periodic Zoom sessions to review portfolio performance and update our financial plan as our needs change. These sessions instill confidence that our portfolio will remain resilient for the long term. Peter always takes the time to listen to our future goals and what-if scenarios, and he runs them through financial simulations so we know how these might impact our portfolio over the long haul. I often take our conversations off track with various world events and finance questions as they pop into my head, but it never fazes him. He is always patient as he explains things and then gets our meeting back on track. Peter is my main point of contact, and he's very responsive to my emails and calls, as is the entire Mission Wealth team to whom he might delegate tactical tasks.

I have had the pleasure of working with Mission Wealth for the past year and they have exceeded all expectations. Peter Ahrens and his team have handled my financial planning with grace and expertise, all while patiently answering my multitude of questions, without judgement. I can’t recommend Peter and Mission Wealth enough for any type of personal financial planning, no matter your goals. You will sleep better at night knowing that this is your team!

I love Peter's knowledge and passion, but most importantly, I feel like he really cares about helping me and helping me make the most out of my earnings. I love knowing that I have options available to me, and he explains the thinking behind his recommendations and takes the time to help me understand and feel comfortable with my choices. The timing of both Peter and me joining Mission Wealth and being matched up is ideal. I feel like I have more than an advisor, I have a trusted partner…which is exactly what I was hoping. Some companies look at their employees as resources to use, and others look at employees as assets for investment and growth. I’m glad to see Mission Wealth falls into that latter category.

Personal Pursuits

Hailing from the picturesque outdoor playground of Fort Collins along the Colorado Front Range, Peter is an avid runner, hiker, and cyclist. He cherishes exploring with his wife, Rebekah, and four kids. As a Midwest transplant, Peter remains a devoted supporter of the Chicago Bears. Playing the guitar is another passion, and Peter enjoys strumming solo or jamming with friends whenever he gets the chance. Most weekends, you’ll find him engrossed in a book on history or economics, savoring a good cup of coffee.

Community Impact

Peter volunteers with the community at his local church, Vineyard of the Rockies. He also spent two years working for The Father’s House International, an organization that cares for widows and orphans worldwide. During his time there, he helped manage the mission base in Henderson, Kentucky, while also working at bases in Israel, Palestine, and Guatemala.
