Our Team
T. Payton Collins
President and Wealth Advisor
Payton Collins is a Wealth Advisor of TPC Financial and draws upon over 25 years of financial services industry experience to bring a distinct, client-centered approach to each relationship. He concentrates on building and preserving wealth with a tax-integrated focus for families and small business owners. Payton has also worked extensively with women in transition who are either divorced or lost their life partner. This can be a challenging time and Payton understands the challenges of developing a plan, creating goals and continuing to manage the household affairs after a tumultuous period. Payton also believes that financial planning is a philosophy for intentional living and enjoys working with people who's financial decisions are motivated by their spiritual values.
Payton's experience in the financial services industry began in 1994 with a multinational insurance company, where he specialized in retirement and insurance planning. Later he began focusing his career on individual retirement planning and joined a CPA firm to help launch their wealth management division. Seeing a growing trend of Americans who are underprepared for the potential of a 30+ year retirement, Payton believes that firms with specialists in all areas of wealth management services are highly equipped to sort through the myriad of financial strategies and construct a retirement income plan that is both tax efficient and sustainable throughout a client's lifetime. TPC Financial was founded on the belief that investments, insurance, and taxes are inter-related and should be coordinated when working on a client’s entire financial picture.
Payton received his Bachelor of Arts from the University of North Florida. He currently holds Series 6, 7, and 63, registrations with Kovack Securities, Inc. as a registered representative, and holds the Series 65 registration with Kovack Advisors, Inc. as an investment advisor representative.
