Family Love Letter

If you love someone, you want to make sure they know how to find your professional advisors; where your investments, insurance, and other assets are held; what employee or retiree benefits you’re entitled to; where to find information on trusts, citizenship, military records, or business ownership; your plans for a special-needs family member; and which philanthropic organizations hold a place in your heart. Most importantly, you want them to know you love them enough to ensure they know what is important – about you and to you. If you love someone, give them the gift of a Family Love Letter.

Get Your Retirement Back on Course

Emotions can drive investors to buy the latest hot fund near its peak and sell it after an unfortunate downward spiral. This “buy high, sell low” scenario is sadly not just an anecdote, but is very real for many individual investors. The end result is simple: Buying on greed and selling on fear might satisfy short-term emotional needs, but this lack of discipline can often compromise long-term objectives. In this seminar, we’ll discuss common choices in employer-sponsored retirement plans and how you can avoid these common mistakes.

Non-deposit investment products and services are offered through CUSO Financial Services, L.P. ("CFS"), a registered broker-dealer (Member FINRA/SIPC) and SEC Registered Investment Advisor.
