Can it get much crazier? If you’ve never considered an annuity for anything before, you should consider it now. An annuity is actually an insurance product that gives people a guarantee on their investment. At least the fixed annuities and fixed indexed annuities do. The stock market is a scary place to have your money these days, especially if you saw the Dow drop nearly 800 points Monday! It didn’t plummet that much after 9/11, which doesn’t make me feel very good.  Read more >

Life insurance is life insurance, right? Many times yes, but with the right type of life insurance your mortgage will be protected in a way that affords your survivors more options. Have you gotten a mortgage or refinanced a loan lately?

Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) have been around since 2004 and grew out of the Archer Medical Savings Account pilot. Initially, there weren’t a lot of trustees that handled HSAs.

About Me: 

Colleen King has been working with people helping them to make decisions that will best benefit their financial future. A native Californian, she knows that keeping up with the cost of living in this state requires good planning and anticipation of what the future may hold.


After spending many years working as a registered nurse, Colleen now works with people to do ‘preventive maintenance’ on their financial status. She received her Master of Business Administration (MBA) degree from the University of Redlands in 1998. Colleen’s goal when working with clients is to ‘demystify’ the different aspects of insurance and financial planning that many find so daunting. One plan does not fit all. The direction you go with her will depend on your dreams, goals and needs.


Colleen is a past president of the Ventura County chapter of the National Association of Women Business Owners and is always looking for growth opportunities for herself and others. Her biggest growth experience came when she broke out on her own and started the Colleen King Insurance Agency in 2003.


Colleen resides in the San Fernando Valley with her partner Tim, his son Casey and her two dogs, Aidan and Siobhan.
