Darby Minnick, CLU, ChFC

Financial Representative

Mr. Minnick’s financial savvy has been cultivated and tested right here in Big Sky Country.

In 1913, Darby’s family homesteaded in Rudyard, Montana and farmed for over 50 years. Darby was born and raised nearby, in Havre, Montana.

While working at his family’s Hi-Line Auto dealership from 1975 to 1980, Darby became leasing manager and then owner of Hi-Line Leasing Company. During the tough economy of the late 1970s, many dealerships went bankrupt, but he powered through. This experience enabled him to help other businesses through tough economic times.

In 1979, Darby began helping farm and ranch families with estate planning. This small start grew into advising business owners across the United States.

Today, Darby’s passion is to make a positive difference in other people’s lives. He works on the behalf of clients around the country with the help of his business partner and son-in-law, Michael Hixson.

Mr. Minnick attended MSU Northern and the University of Montana, where he studied accounting.
