I hope you enjoy your time off as our nation celebrates the great Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.  Remember that the post office, banks, and sanitation departments are closed today.  MLK Day is observed by many as a day for volunteering and honoring basic human rights of all people.

Please see the article below about this week's movie giveaway.

Financial Innovations - Top Ten List

New Year's Resolutions

Most of us make them and break them.  Why?  There are many different reasons.  For 2014 make a financial checklist and set deadlines.  Then ask someone close to you to check in on you monthly and make sure you hit those deadlines.  What should be some of your financial resolutions?  

Here is a top ten list:

  1. Do you have a Last Will and Testament, Financial Power of Attorney, and Advance Directive for Health Care? If yes, then review them and if no, then contact an estate planning attorney (see my December article on how to choose an advisor).  You should also have an important list to give to your family and friends with information on who to contact, where your assets are held, and your digital media passwords (or where to find them).
  2. Review your home, auto, and umbrella insurance policies.  Do you have ordinance coverage? Do you have replacement coverage?  Do you have an umbrella policy?  Contact your agent and review the policies in detail and also contact a competitor and compare.
  3. Review your investments. Contact your investment advisor Read More
