Ben is a Macro Analyst at Financial Journey Partners and joined the team after getting the investment bug from his parents Scott and Elaine Manley. For the last few years, he has become a student of the market. He is responsible for analyzing the entire portfolio performance as well as the macro view of the markets. He also makes trades for client accounts.
Ben graduated from Chapman University with a Bachelor of Science in Business, with the intention of starting his own education gaming company. Then in 2021, he made an investment in the right stock at the right time, and he was hooked. Ben began proactively teaching himself technical analysis through YouTube, Discord, Reddit, etc. He then spent several years learning the FJP investment process. Ben is excited about continuing to grow his career in financial services.
When he is not working, Ben is playing quarterback -- for one of the three flag football teams he belongs -- in either a league or tournament game somewhere in the US. Ben is also an enthusiastic gamer and is highly ranked worldwide in several games. Like his father Scott, Ben is a die-hard Packers fan and can often be found on Sundays cheering them on with his girlfriend by his side.
