A Special Poem from my Grandmother:
Friendship is --- Three spoonsful of happiness, One cup of care, A pound of fresh laughter, A pinch of good cheer
Stirred well with compassion, And ready to share. by, Pauline Lane Streeter (†)

Our History:
First Gunn Financial Group was founded by Dr. James A. Gunn Jr. in the 1970’s as a single advisor firm. We have been associated with LPL Financial dating back to 1996 when Jim associated with LPL Financial as an Investment Advisor Representative. Our firm has served the Stillwater community and evolved along the way as the needs and environment of financial advice has changed. Our association with LPL Financial has provided us a platform to operate as fee based fiduciary advisors for our clients well before this was common in our industry. We believe so deeply in not selling products to our clients but instead coming alongside them to provide advisory services for a flat fee. We do accommodate clients that prefer the brokerage side of our business when requested and assist them with the same passion and efforts in seeing them seek to reach their goals.
Matt Streeter, a Certified Financial Planner™ professional and Wealth Advisor joined First Gunn Financial Group in 2016 as a partner and completed Dr. Gunn’s succession plan goal in 2019, which was 2 years ahead of schedule.
About our Founder:
Dr. James A. Gunn Jr.
Jim passed May 2023
Jim Retired at the end of 2019, and he still loves to come into the office regularly and bring his beautiful dog Sugar in for a visit. We hope you catch him when you are in next, because he would love to say hi and see you.
Jim specialized in retirement and estate planning and believed in building long-term, personal relationships with First Gunn Financial Group’s clients. A former professor of accounting at the University of Arkansas and Oklahoma State University, he left academia in 1970 to become an investment advisor representative, focusing on life insurance and estate planning.
Jim earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Accounting, a Master of Business Administration and a Ph.D. in Business Administration, all from the University of Arkansas. After receiving his doctorate, he added CPA to his list of qualifications. He was a lifetime qualifier of the Million Dollar Round Table, an international organization of life insurance and financial services professionals with exceptional industry knowledge, excellent client service, and a strict code of ethics. Jim believed it was important to never recommend an investment strategy that he hadn’t vetted himself.
Jim lived in Stillwater with his wife and is the proud father of two daughters and the grandfather of five.
