Financially fit: New East Naples gym owner combines his passions
Posted: at 4:39 pm
Fitness and finance have a lot in common.
Adam Deane, 41, who owns Ronin Capital Management and will open an Anytime Fitness in East Naples on March 15, said the similarities between them rest in the mission of helping people achieve their goals.
"You have financial fitness and health fitness," Deane said.
"What I'm trying to do with Ronin Capital is help people with their financial health, and with Anytime Fitness, I'm helping people with their physical health."
Deane said he opened Ronin Capital Management in December 2010 after 14 years of working for financial giants such as Bank of America and Wachovia, which became Wells Fargo last year.
Deane said he witnessed the financial crisis first-hand and ultimately decided to break away and start an independent capital management business.
"The firms were doing things that they shouldn't have been doing, pushing investments that they shouldn't have been pushing and, at the end of the day, I felt that the larger firms did not have the client's best interest in mind," Deane said.
"I'm ultimately about preserving capital, making money for my clients and sitting on the same side of the table as they do," he said.
Deane began in the financial advising world after a short stint in realty, a business that his father and stepmom have owned for more than 30 years with Andrea Deane and Associates.
Deane said after moving to Naples in the mid-1990s and realizing the influx of Realtors, he began to find a different profession. He said he contacted Larry L. Galantis at Prudential Securities about becoming a financial adviser. Galantis hired Deane and served as his mentor.
"My role was to provide him with the guidance that one can not learn in a classroom environment," said Galantis.
Galantis, who now works for Raymond James Financial in Tampa, said he helped Deane develop his skills as an adviser and continues to act as a sounding board for Deane's ideas.
Galantis said that as a financial adviser he tells clients to diversify their investments, a tip he said that advisers like himself and Deane should adhere to.
"It's called practicing what we preach," Galantis said. "In the case of Anytime Fitness, it allows him to capitalize on a passion of his, which of course, is physical fitness."
Deane said that as an adviser he is always on the lookout for opportunities and he found one after hearing about Anytime Fitness from a friend in Mississippi about two years ago.
Deane said he had always thought about opening a gym but the "big box" gym model was something he wanted to avoid.
Anytime Fitness appealed to Deane because of its smaller size and focus on a more intimate relationship with members compared to them feeling like a number.
"The best way to describe what I'm trying to do is to create a 'Cheers' environment in the gym," Deane said, referring to the former NBC television series.
"Where everybody knows your name."
The 5,000-square-foot gym, near the intersection of 951 and Davis Boulevard, is open 24 hours a day seven days a week and caters to members' time schedule, Deane said.
The gym will have traditional machines in addition to a room for CrossFit training, which he said is an effective method of training that creates camaraderie among participants. The gym will also have a "Heroes" membership program for those who serve in the community as firefighters, EMTs, hospital staff, police officers and other first responders.
Deane's Anytime Fitness is not the first in the area. The first Anytime Fitness opened in March 2008 off Livingston Road in Naples. According to owner Dustin Heath, the two gyms will not be in competition and the addition of another Anytime Fitness will help the business.
Deane said his ultimate goal is to open two more Anytime Fitness gyms in Southwest Florida in the next two years and to expand to about 10 clubs throughout Florida in the next five years.
Although Deane said his first priority is his investment business, he thinks the gyms serve as a perfect complement.
According to Deane, his passion for fitness is something that will be brought to his ownership in the gym. Deane said he has been heavily involved in fitness since the age of 13 and that passion continued throughout high school and college.
Deane's fitness path led him to mixed martial arts while working as a financial adviser in the late-1990s. Deane said he was looking for an outlet to release the stress from the day and that he found that outlet in mixed martial arts, a passion that he had first got involved in while in California.
Deane said he continued to train and compete in fights in Bonita Springs at American Kenpo Karate and Shootfighting. Deane said while at American Kenpo he reached the ranks of assistant instructor.
Deane said being an entrepreneur is all about taking risks and branching out to other endeavors.
"If you look at the businesses or entrepreneurs who do well, they are the ones who take the risks when things aren't going well," Deane said.

5 Ways to Live Large During Retirement
Posted: at 4:39 pm
As of last year, the first of the baby boomers became the most recent batch of Americans to enter their golden years. Senior citizenship, for these newly minted members of the U.S. retired segment, shouldn't come as a challenge to a generation accustomed more than any other to changing times. From childhoods spent growing up in an optimistic Post-World War II climate to the tumultuous social and political upheavals of the 60s, facing the end of one's career may seem like a simple afterthought, all things considered.
[In Pictures: The 10 Best Places to Retire in 2012.]
But times have changed once again, and boomers are among the first to face retirement amidst an economy wounded by the recession, a slumped housing market, and insecurities over the future of Social Security benefits. More than ever before, retirees are concerned about saving money and making the most out of their dollars after age 65.
It is possible, however, to live on less without sacrificing all of the good things that make for an enjoyable retirement. With a bit of careful budgeting and some common-sense spending, scaling back your expenses doesn't have to mean diminishing your quality of life.
[See The Growing Challenge of Funding Retirement.]
1. Move wisely, buy smaller, save bigger. If you and your spouse are empty nesters and your children grown and moved away, all those extra rooms in your house may lose their necessity. But downsizing doesn't mean less. Many newer homes and condominiums can be had for cheaper, with more modern amenities than their older, more expensive and high-maintenance counterparts. If health and mobility are an issue during retirement, opting for a one-level, ranch-style dwelling reduces the need for stairs, levels, and the overall real estate price. (In the best-case scenario, you may walk away with a profit after the sale of one house for the purchase of another.)
Depending on the location, your savings can be compounded further. Warm climate, access to water, and affordable recreation were a few of the priorities boomers placed on their retirement wish lists, according to a recent Huffington Post survey. Choose wisely where you hang your hat, so your overall cost of living is cheaper. Areas in Texas, Georgia, Idaho, and Nevada have still been untapped by the growing retirement market and are more affordable than California or New York.

Residing in a temperate climate without the seasonal ups and downs of frigid winters and humid summers cuts down on monthly utility costs. Retiring to a more affordable region makes a world of difference in property taxes as well--think $3,600 per year in Florida versus $10,000 annually in the New York City metro area.
2. Two people to one car. Carpooling doesn't have to be just for the working class anymore. With gas approaching the $5 mark in some states this week, choosing to cut back on driving is an economical choice for motorists of any age.
For retirees, keeping a single car to share between both spouses reduces both your fuel and insurance costs, and helps the environment at the same time. Plus, it gives the perfect opportunity to get out of your car, reduce your carbon footprint, and stay healthy simultaneously. If you live close to a downtown or local shops, get in some exercise, and take the time to walk or bike where you can.

3. DIY. Were you always handy around the house or skilled with your hands? Many retirees discover their hidden artistic talents. Learn to paint or sculpt, and display your wares at the weekly downtown art walk. There's a great chance that the sale of your work could net some extra income while doing what you love.
Did your career and raising a family set back your dream of becoming a master gardener? Retirement and the free time it offers now gives you that chance to put your green thumb to the test and hone your landscaping skills. Planting the vegetable garden you always wanted and seeing it thrive is not only personally gratifying, but sustainable, and a healthy and affordable option to avoiding overpriced groceries.
4. Long live learning. Don't fight the urge to cancel that cable TV subscription if you don't think it's a needed household staple. Save money from one less bill to pay, and opt for other, free-of-charge information centers, like our old friend, the local library. If movies and TV are a given for you and your spouse, the library offers a wide selection of movies for rent, and outlets like Netflix, Amazon, or Hulu provide video on demand at affordable prices. Knowledge knows no age. Discover the eternal student in you. Local colleges and universities may offer a senior discount in their tuition plans, and many permit retirees to attend classes for free as a non-matriculating student.

5. Keep it simple. What should be a lifetime practice applies best in retirement. Don't buy more than you need in groceries, clothing, or household goods. If you've planted that garden filled with lush vegetables, save money by supplementing with frozen greens in bulk. Freeze leftovers to reduce waste and cooking time. Become a coupon maven when shopping. And remember, with material belongings and everything else, that less really is more.
Retirement is your time to relax, slow down, and enjoy life. By creating a few smart ways to cut back and spend less, living on less can mean living bigger than ever before, with a lifetime of years ahead of you.
