These reflections represent real feedback from clients we’ve had the privilege to guide and support throughout their financial planning journey. But don’t just take their word for it. Talk with us to see what working together could look like for you.

  • Janice B., Yardley, PA, Feb 2004

    “Marianna and her staff were instrumental in helping me get my finances in order after my divorce. They were always available when I had questions and made the transition go seamlessly during a very stressful time in my life. Being a client at CURO is like being a part of a caring family.

    I can relax knowing they are working in my best interest to ensure I have a financially sound future.”

  • Christine L., Glen Mills, PA, Aug 2023

    “I have been a client of Marianna Goldenberg's for 25 plus years and have trusted her with my life in so many words. Marianna was always there when I went through really bad times and when I didn't know if I could safely retire to take care of my aging mother and still feel secure in the knowledge that my portfolio was in excellent hands. Working and caregiving wasn't easy and there were many times when I would contact Marianna to go through my financials and she would always say I would be OK and I was.

    Marianna is not just my financial advisor but I feel has always been my friend and would NEVER steer me wrong. I have always told her, I TRUST YOU and still tell her that to this day. Marianna and the CURO group are awesome. If you call them for any reason, they help or get back with you as soon as they find the answer to your questions or point you in the right direction. I truly feel they are the best!!!”

  • Lisa C., Williamsburg, VA, March 2024

    "At the start of my divorce and talking about the joint net worth, my attorney discussed using a financial advisor for assurance of equitable distribution. Upon meeting Marianna, we discussed the importance of searching for all assets. She shared her new business deviation was helping women going through divorce. Her quote: "Once you sign the divorce papers, I cannot help with money distribution." The first suggestion was a forensic accounting of our joint accounts. Needing to find any discrepancy in our finances was essential. We throughly reviewed my joint assets.

    Divorce is stressful for everyone. I shared that I had been diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis and stress is harmful. During the divorce process we formed a strong friendship. Having to bear my soul, a strong trust is mandatory. My husband managed all the finances. I became the wife I promised myself I would never become. I had to learn about paying bills, banking, and investing. Marianna spent so much time educating me to be independent. She never became intolerant or frustrated. I could not have become an independent woman on my own. I feel so fortunate to have Marianna in my corner. I am no longer in timidated with handling my life. I have created a new saying about my divorce: I married well but divorced better.

    I continue a wonderful friendship and financial relationship with CURO."

  • Marie G., Richboro, PA, May 2024

    “We’ve been with Marianna for over 25 years. She is always attentive to our needs. Marianna gives us her advice but always listens to our concerns and opinions.”

  • Diane D., Bernardsville, NJ, Jan 2026

    "Marianna and I have established a respectful and shared decision-making relationship. This has results in a successful financial life plan. Before any decisions are made, proposals by either party are researched and discussed. Marianna has the ability to understand my financial objectives and the level of risk that I'm willing to take. Marianna's expertise and life experience truly qualifies her as an exceptional financial advisor!"

  • Elizabeth H., Newtown PA, October 2025

    “Marianna Goldenberg has been our financial advisor and friend for more than two decades. She is wicked smart with the knowledge of her profession, to advise us for a secure retirement and lifestyle. Marianna takes patience and time in annual review meetings to understand our concerns, family needs and goals. We always come away feeling understood, more knowledgeable and confident our investments are in excellent qualified hands. She also has a wealth of contacts from a broad spectrum of services, which we have drawn from successfully on many occasions. We owe a great deal of gratitude for the advice Marianna gave us early in my husband’s retirement, which has afforded us a comfortable life. Marianna and her staff are attentive and are always responsive to our requests and/or questions. Thank you, so much, Marianna!!!”

    "I have been working with Marianna and her team at CURO for nearly 10 years and I could not be happier. I came to her without a good understanding of how to get my financial ducks in a row and build wealth. Marianna has supported me as I’ve created financial goals and achieved them. I’ve recommended her to countless friends - she listens, she cares - you aren’t just a number with this team, and it shows."
