Q1 2022 – CEO to YOU Message
Posted on April 07, 2022
Michael’s Message: Skills for the New Normal
If you’re like me, you’re enjoying the reopening, including being able to dine out, travel, and hug the people you haven’t seen in a long time. Summer usually brings brightness, new chances, and time outdoors; this summer brings those things and so much more!
A new normal is headed our way and at BW we’re ready. That’s because we’re adapting to your needs as we’re speaking to clients about changes in their finances or their financial philosophy due to the pandemic.
In this issue, you’ll read about the latest market updates, our summer interns, and some tips to help during this economic reopening. You’ll also read about BW client Bronner H., a medical doctor, and hear his insights on what being a BW client has meant to him and his family. Like Bronner, I’ve always said, “health is wealth” and have encouraged friends and family to get regular health and financial checkups. By checking in regularly, you’ll know what steps are needed to optimize your health and your wealth.
