In less than a week from now, I'll be hosting my Webinar on Managing Your Lifestyle. Remember to sign up for replay access or share with a friend who you think might like to learn along with you! One of the principles I'll be covering is how making simple choices today can positively (or negatively) affect your future financial stability and goals.

The dream of a secure retirement, college funding, or a vacation home may be the financial “prize” you’re keeping your eyes on. But it’s hard for investors, even seasoned ones, to stay focused in the face of market volatility and even just managing your lifestyle spending habits. During a down market, your brain may be whispering “sit tight,” while your stomach is screaming “sell!” So, how do you know what choices to make? The reality is that the market will go up and down over time. But history shows us that staying invested through market movements can be beneficial to investors. This flyer from Franklin Templeton, Long-Term Investing Has Rewards, offers some perspective on market performance over the years. It offers a startling illustration of what can happen to investment results if you quit the market and miss even a few trading days over a 20-year period which can in turn affect your lifestyle choices even today! Feel free to reach out any time you have questions or worries about your investments. We all work hard for our assets, so it’s only natural to want to protect them and make the best plan to enjoy them. Connect with me to find out more.
