Announcements

Midyear Financial Checkup

 
We all do it. At the beginning of every New Year we make our list of New Year’s resolu-tions. We vow to get in shape, make more time for our-selves, save more money…you get the picture. But often times, by February 1st all of our good intentions have fallen by the wayside and we are back to our old habits. Once again, we are waiting for our next paycheck, the next month, or January 1st to REALLY implement the changes we want to make in our lives. Well folks, half the year is over. If you want to make some changes before December 31st, so you’re not looking back with regrets, the time is now.
