Greetings!
What a difference a year makes! Last year, Independence Day brought a record high temp of 101 in Mayfield. In fact the Bobfather (organic gardener that he is) reminded me that by this time last year, we had already had a week of 100+ temperatures. But there's another benchmark I think more important: one year ago the S&P 500 was 1365.51. As of July 1, it had risen over 18% to close at 1614.96. It's been a very good year indeed!

In last month's tip, I took a stab at explaining how annuities work. So if you no longer feel warm and cozy toward your annuity, do you have options? Use an IRS Section 1035 exchange to pull yourself out of the quicksand.

In Closing... |
Our offices will be closed Thursday in honor of our nation's 237th birthday. If you need me on Friday, I'll be at my desk in shorts and a t-shirt, but feel free to stop by! As we wave our flags and celebrate with ice cream, fireworks, and parades, let us never forget that our freedom was bought at a high price. We are the land of the free because of the brave - may God forever bless America!
Hugs,
Johanna
