April, which means “to open,” in Latin, is considered the month of growing: when flowers and trees begin to bloom or open up. It is also believed that the month’s name is after the Greek goddess, Aphrodite.

Have you talked to your financial advisor? During these uncertain times, it is important to keep your long-term financial goals in mind. Consider acting on the following: 1. Revisit the question “Am I on the right track?” 2. Evaluate your true risk tolerance. Has the recent downturn worried you about your current asset allocation? 3. When was the last time you updated your investment/retirement/estate plan? 4. Learn what The CARES Act entails (ex. Required Minimum Distribution waived for 2020.) 5. Create a game plan for what happens if the Emergency reserve runs dry. Now may be the perfect time to call one of our financial advisors to make sure you are on track to reaching your long-term goals!
