The coffee is on Ruben J. Rea the last Saturday of each month.
He is an investment representative for Edward Jones, an investment firm serving individual investors exclusively, which recently opened in Hanama’ulu.
The grand opening of the Kaua’i office of Edward Jones is Saturday, Jan. 19, from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m., along Kuhio Highway near Hanama’ulu Restaurant (cafe), and the monthly coffee sessions are 9 a.m. to 10:30 a.m.
The grand opening will include a ribbon-cutting ceremony, office blessing, cake cutting, music, entertainment and refreshments.
The monthly Coffee Club is an informal gathering of those interested in participating in discussions on the economy, interest rates, stocks, and other investments and hot topics.
“The Coffee Club offers us an opportunity to learn from one another and exchange ideas on a variety of issues,” said Rea.
“I look forward to sharing my expertise on how individuals can make their money grow and build wealth, as well as have fun and get to know some of my neighbors better.”
Before joining Edward Jones, Rea was a senior investment consultant with Bank of Hawai’i. He holds a master’s degree in communications, and a bachelor’s degree in English, from the University of Hawai’i at Manoa.
He and wife Remy have two children and two cats.
“I am excited to be opening the first Edward Jones office on Kaua’i, because I really see a need for the type of service we provide,” he said.
“This firm concerns itself exclusively with the needs of individual investors and small business owners, and I’m happy to be bringing that kind of personalized service to this community,” said Rea.
Edward Jones, the only major financial-services firm advising individual investors exclusively, traces its roots to 1871, and currently serves five million clients.
It has over 8,000 offices in the United States and, through its affiliates, in Canada and the United Kingdom. Plans call for expansion to 10,000 branches by next year.
