| President's Message |
Happy Anniversary! The CFP Board is celebrating 25 years on July 17th. It's a privilege to be involved in an industry that is so young and evolving. Just imagine the opportunity each of us has to impact the growth and development of the Financial Planning Profession.
Carpe diem and consider joining the Pittsburgh Chapter FPA Board, won't you? We are soliciting interested members for the 2011 Board of Directors. Please send me an email me if you have an interest in a board position or in becoming a committee member.
Best Regards,
Jay
