1. When Should You Invest?

    “When should I invest?”  That is one of the first questions I’m asked when I tell people I am a CFP® Professional.  Of course, they are asking from an economic view hoping to maximize their return on investment.  Unfortunately, I cannot give them a definitive answer because I’m not a fortune teller. I’ve often wondered…

  2. Top Three Excuses People Use to Avoid Financial Planning

  3. Stock buybacks

    Why should a financial planner be concerned about stock buybacks? The only thing I don’t like about financial planning and the overall study of economics is that I must pay attention to the news, especially what’s happening in Washington, DC.  As many of you already know, I loathe politics.  The concept is great and I…

  7. When Should You invest?

    When Should You invest? With so many of us taking vacations to the beach this summer, I’m hoping my next statement will start hitting home.  Yes, I will continue to say it as long as I can speak. The stock market moves in waves.  As you sit on the sand, watch the waves form in…

  8. Recession, Recession, Recession

    How can we survive a recession? Did you know there is a chance of a recession looming on the horizon?  If not, do you live under a rock?  Depending on which channel you watch, the recession could be short or it could be the end of the world.  This is why when we invest, we…

  9. Patience in Financial Planning

    Patience is a vital tool in financial planning.
