THE MANY WAYS WE CAN EMBRACE CHANGE
|
Change is in the air; change is everywhere.
"
Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
" could serve as the chorus of our lives.
Change is often on our mind, especially this time of year, so we want to share a collection of resources on the topic, in a variety of formats. We hope you can glean a fresh perspective on change, no matter what form it is taking in your life.
Though a well-constructed investment plan should not undergo frequent change, it should be revisited when your life experiences a significant shift, whether it's unexpected or calculated. Connect with us for a conversation to see how these changes affect your big-picture financial lives.

READ
Change is coming. No matter who wins the upcoming presidential election between two polarizing figures, there will be plenty of angst. But don't let that anxiety carry over to your portfolio. This article looks at how, over the long run, the market has provided substantial returns regardless of who controls the executive bench.
This article examines the question: How many of us truly want positive change to happen around us -- but still want to leave our own little worlds intact? Because the truth is, for us to reinvent ourselves, we likely need to reinvent how our typical day looks.
Following a job loss, the author had to readjust her life's path. She shares tips -- applicable to whatever sudden change may happen in life -- for moving forward: seek new perspectives, try something new and scary, remove tired routines.
