Who We Are

Our History

At Financial Resources, we sincerely believe that most people want to do what’s right: right for themselves, right for their families, and right for their communities. In fact, that's one of the reasons our family has done this for over four generations.

You can take comfort in the fact that we have been a part of this community for 100 years, and therefore have a vested interest in seeing our friends and neighbors succeed. In fact, we probably have many of the same hopes and aspirations as you, and will be happy to share all the resources and information our firm has to offer.

Depending on your needs, we can introduce you to some proven, dependable ways to help protect your family’s lifestyle and future;

or prepare for major financial events such as paying for college, saving for retirement, or caring for an aging relative.

If you’re wondering about our qualifications, you may find it reassuring to know that we have 50 years of combined experience in the insurance and financial services industry.

Of course, our background isn’t really the one that matters. We’ve found that getting to know our clients – their hopes, dreams and goals for the future – is far more important. So if you’re looking for someone who's ready to put their expertise and experience to work for you, please let us know.

Henry McGee, CLU®, ChFC®, CFP®

Principal and Founder

Henry is the Principal and founder of Financial Resources, LLC, along with his father, Sam McGee. The two formed their company together in 2013. Henry began his career with New York Life in 2002, immediately upon graduating from Clemson University with a degree in Finance and a minor in Investments. He became the fourth generation in his family, joining his father, grandfather, and great-grandfather, to build a career in the life insurance and investment business.

Henry is passionate about his career, evidenced by the industry boards he serves on, along with his continued learning. He has obtained both the CFP®, CLU®, and ChFC® designations, which allow him to have a much deeper understanding of the situations he and his clients work through together.

Henry and his wife Lindsey are the proud parents of three children, Brett (10), Henry (8), and Bo (5). If Henry is not in his office, then you will most likely find him coaching either on the soccer field, basketball court, or baseball diamond. One of the few things he enjoys more than his career is spending time with his growing family as much as possible!

“This is the real secret of life- To be completely engaged with what you are doing in the here and now and instead of calling it work, realize its play.”

Principal and Founder

Sam is the Principal and founder of Financial Resources, LLC, along with his son, Henry. Sam began his career with New York Life in 1977 in Augusta, GA. Shortly thereafter he relocated his family back up to Greenville and began building his business from the ground up.

He remains extremely active today, continuously serving his clients and delivering on the promises he has made over his 40 year career. When he’s not in the office though, he is usually chasing his grandkids (8 of them!) or spending time in the mountains or at the beach.

Jim Garvin headshot

Jim Garvin

Paraplanner

Growing up in the Youngstown, Ohio area, Jim was taught at an early age to appreciate the value of the dollar and a hard day's work. Throughout his college years, he had some wonderful mentors in his life who directed him in the right direction and instilled in him the entrepreneurial spirit. This led him to studying finance and graduating as a CFP candidate from Youngstown State University.

Upon graduating, he began work as a small business consultant, working alongside small business owners to improve their cash flows, profitability, and to help them understand their customers a little better. Several doors opened and he had the opportunity to move to Saint Louis, MO, where he began working as a financial advisor with Edward Jones. Over time as his experience grew, he created his own firm called "Garvin Planning Co." to help independent financial planners better serve their clients.

On a personal note, he grew up in the BSA and obtained his Eagle Scout which laid the foundation for his adventurous character. He is a big outdoorsman and traveler, and often includes his black lab named Daffodil. Jim’s favorite hobbies in the world are skiing, running, and scuba diving. Every free chance he gets to be outside and enjoying nature, he takes! As a virtual financial planner, he cherishes his location independence and is in the process of working through his personal bucket list.

“Life is either an incredible adventure, or it is nothing at all.”
