In addition, vets spend about 160 hours each year doing volunteer work. While there are veterans who struggle upon returning to civilian life, many are active, engaged, and invested in their communities. On this Veterans’ Day, celebrate the men and women you know who have served in America’s armed forces. We are active, engaged, and invested, too. Our interest is in helping you reach your financial goals. If you have any questions or would like to discuss recent market gyrations, give us a call.]]>
