76 Wealth Advisory Newsletter

1st Quarter, 2020

Welcome

Welcome

First and foremost, I would like to extend a very big thank you to the clients who have followed me on the path to independence. 76 Wealth Advisory was founded in August of 2019 on two core principles: 1) Independence is the only way to truly serve clients in their best interest, and, 2) Communication, transparency and education are crucial to maintaining lifelong client relationships.


Please enjoy the first edition of the 76 Wealth Advisory Newsletter. This will be published on a quarterly basis and will combine the latest in financial planning news with fun topics like books we are reading, podcasts we are listening to, and wines we are currently enjoying. Please feel free to share any of your favorites as well.
