“COVID-ed” Lessons: Four Things the Pandemic has Taught Us About Savings in the Face of Financial Uncertainty

July 14, 2020

In my life and career, I have found three things overwhelmingly true with money:
1) The unexpected is inevitable- you better be prepared financially.
2) To accomplish something meaningful with money, a commitment to saving is implicit.
3) Wealthy individuals all seem to resiliently pursue a discipline of saving money despite their circumstances.
The common denominator across these three principles is simply a commitment to saving money. It is the foundation upon which all other financial success will be built. And 2020 has challenged that resolve thus far.

Tools to Survive (and Thrive) During Tough Times

May 11, 2020

Resiliency is one of the characteristics I most admire in others, and that I have always tried to foster in my children and live out in my own life.  And we certainly have an opportunity in these unusual times to practice it on almost a daily basis. One of my favorite quotes on the subject speaks to the personal growth that can come from difficult times: “On the other side of a storm is the strength that comes from having navigated through it. Raise your sail and begin.” — Gregory S. Williams I am sure many of you have developed ways to cope and even thrive over the last few weeks as you have adjusted to the “new normal” that comes with quarantine and social distancing.  But I wanted to take this opportunity to share some of the best resources we have found to help us all emerge on the “other side of the storm” stronger than we began.

Exercise & The COVID-19 Outbreak

May 11, 2020

As most everyone can attest, things are different right now!  Dining out hasn’t been an option until recently, seeing a movie in a theater seems risky, and going to the gym seems wrought with potential coronavirus exposure.  For those of us who enjoy exercising, we’ve had to change our routines to adhere to “stay at home” orders and social/physical distancing.  We’ve needed unique ways to maintain our exercise regimen.
