Why “White Rhino” name?

Why the name “White Rhino” Financial?

Unlike other firms with enigmatic titles, our firm’s name carries important significance. We find that the White Rhino serves as a fitting metaphor for our approach to finances.   We believe that our approach is unique and memorable, just like the name White Rhino Financial.

The White Rhino is a tough, thick-skinned mammal that lives in the grassy plains of central and southern Africa. As one of the largest land mammals (second only to the elephant), adult White Rhinos have no natural predators. A dominant figure of the Saharan plains, The White Rhinoceros is quick and agile and can run 31 mph, they rumble through the jungle fearing nothing.  A White Rhino spends a third of their time working, grazing their territory, a third of their time resting and a third of their time enjoying life in the mud.

We’re a thick-skinned bunch who believes in a no-nonsense approach to wealth building and protection with only our client’s best interest in mind.
