Not everyone knows this, but when you are building out a financial plan, it is a great idea to have an emergency fund to cover big-money expenses that pop-up. Investors often save up to three to six months of fixed expenses so that they can draw from this emergency fund and not be forced to dip into credit. If you can, set-up an emergency fund for yourself today. Cheers to you if you already have an emergency fund!

One of the launching off points of financial planning is the budget! Client’s approach to budgeting is as diverse as the changing colors of fall. Some love a spreadsheet, others an app but whatever your method for tracking spending, it is a necessary evil. It is impossible to direct your money toward your financial goals unless you get a handle on where your cash is flowing. What is your favorite budgeting tool?

Stepping into Fall

With summer fading from sight, now is a great time to focus on getting your house in order. The first step toward decluttering your house is removing the piles of glossy postcards and large, unopened financial envelopes. But, before you toss the old mail into the shredder, take a quick peek inside the large financial envelope. See if you can determine how much you are paying your financial professional. Then use the back of the envelope to jot down the service that you receive for that fee. Just like any purchase that you make, it is wise to weigh the cost with the benefit. We would love to hear what you discovered inside your large envelope!

LGBTQ Pride Month - Gay pride or LGBT pride is the promotion of the self-affirmation, dignity, equality and increased visibility of le***an, gay, bisexual, and transgender people as a social group. Pride, as opposed to shame and social stigma, is the predominant outlook that bolsters most LGBT rights movements. Here at SWM we support the rights of everyone. ⁣⁣

🌷 Is your money growing as well as your garden?⁣
⁣
Hours spent toiling in the garden can teach valuable wealth management lessons. The lessons learned around patience, spending money wisely and diversity can increase your return and lead to endless joy from both your garden and portfolio.⁣
⁣
Patience⁣
Growing wealth, like growing flowers in your garden takes time, attention and an understanding of how growth compounds throughout the seasons. The most beautiful gardens didn’t pop-up over-night. Gardening is a process that occurs slowly over many years. It takes patience and planning to create an arrangement of gorgeous flowers, shrubs and trees.⁣
⁣
Economy⁣
The variety of flora available for your garden are infinite, and so are the price tags associated with each plant species. When buying vegetation for your garden, and investments for your portfolio, it makes sense to shop around and find the best resources for your budget.⁣
⁣
Diversity⁣
The celebration of colors and scents in a well-planned garden are magnificent. This diverse arrangement of plants, like the diversity used in your investment strategy, are essential. A well-planned garden and portfolio always has something blooming throughout the year, providing a sense of joy, wonder and immense satisfaction.⁣

We would love to hear how your money is growing!⁣

Throwback Thursday!⁣
⁣
A special throwback to the 13 financial professionals who gathered in Chicago 50 years ago and launched the financial planning profession. These trailblazers didn’t know it at the time, but they started a movement that has helped millions accomplish their financial goals. With honest, transparent, and informed guidance, we advance the profession and provide a tailored financial experience that supports your evolving lifestyle and nourishes your aspirations. At SWM we focus on Your goals. Your values. Your life.⁣
