The election has passed and we still don’t know who the next President will be. In spite of this relative uncertainty and what policies the President will seek to employ I have learned over my lifetime that principles for life and financial decision making still apply. Principles don’t guarantee success but they do improve the probabilities for a better outcome. Disciplined long-term application of these principles and regular annual reviews for progress along with the renewing of our minds will increase your clarity and confidence. It's our focus at Legacy Planning Advisors to counsel you accordingly.
