About Me
Matthew Claassen, CMT and CEO of Medigap Seminars Insurance Agency.
Starting in 1984 as a captive insurance agent with The Guardian, I sold life, annuities, and group health but sought deeper purpose, leading me in 1987 to earn a Series 7 license and shift into investment management. By the late 1990s, I hosted the top AM financial talk-radio show in the Washington-Baltimore area, then became a financial analyst and later founded a global hedge fund advisory.
However, working with the ultra-wealthy revealed a profit-driven culture that lacked personal value, prompting me to step away and pursue my passion as a Master Gardener in South Florida. While gardening was fulfilling, helping friends with Medicare brought unmatched personal gratitude, inspiring me to create Medigap Seminars to offer free expert guidance, ensuring people are never alone in navigating Medicare’s complexities.
