Your Survival Guy and Gal picked up two kittens Wednesday. I guess that happens when your kids leave you this time of year. You don’t ever get used to it. It’s sad and quiet when they leave, not that cats are a replacement, but it is nice to have their company. On Sunday we’ll drop our son off at the airport for a semester in Milan, Italy. I know, nice life. And our daughter will finish her senior year of college.
In my conversation with you, you told me how you dropped off your youngest son at college and how quiet the house is—just the two of you and your dog. How nice is it to have animals in our lives? Before you dropped your son off, he said, “Dad, good luck, all Mom’s attention is on you.”
In another conversation, you told me how a fraudulent PayPal account was set up in your name. The perpetrators were able to purchase goods using your information, and now you’re dealing with a phone tree trying to get a live voice on the line. When it comes to your money, I’m one phone call away, and you can be sure you’re with the best when your money is custodied with Fidelity Investments, especially when it comes to your financial security.
In speaking with prospective clients this week, we talked about their retirement plan, and how they’ll make the transition to their retirement life. Change isn’t easy. It’s hard losing the peace of mind of a paycheck. It’s why I value a balanced approach where you can set sail on your voyage with expert guidance. You can start by reading my series on being balanced here.
Action Line: Enjoy the weekend with your loved one(s). Growing older isn’t for the faint of heart. But the voyage is worth every penny. Cheers.
