February is a fun month, with some silly holidays. 

Earlier this month, we celebrated Groundhog Day with a mailing (yep, via the USPS!).  It asked people if their lives felt more like the movie than a celebration of Punxsutawney Phil.  

Will you let this year be a repeat of those same old financial resolutions and goals? If you are looking for a straightforward approach to fee-only advice, we can help you take the steps to solve them and make this year different from the past.

Today, we celebrate Valentine's Day. It's a day to remember those we love, respect and appreciate. We are so grateful to YOU, our newsletter readers! Thank you!     

Cheers,

Create a solid financial 2012

A quick glance and a little action on your finances will make your balance sheet better in 2012. A new year is a time for resolutions. These following resolutions are easy, and if you follow them, you will create the foundation for a financially successful 2012.  

Automate. Make sure you always pay yourself first, and by automating you ensure that you don't just "save what's left at the end of the month." We all know that never happens. The easiest way to do this is to have a set amount, perhaps 5 or 10 percent, automatically transferred out of your paycheck to your savings account.
