CAREFUL CONSIDERATIONS BEFORE TOUCHING INVESTMENTS<\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

Remember your long-term financial plan. Almost every financial advisor source will give you this same advice when it comes to long-term investing as there is a history of markets rebounding after periods of uncertainty. As COVID-19 becomes manageable in the U.S. and globally, markets will rebound to correct fear driven-losses. While no one can predict when that will be, we can all play a part by remaining calm and focusing where we can help. As always, reach out to your financial advisor if you are uncertain about your current long-term plan.<\/p>\n

NAVIGATING FINANCIAL UNCERTAINTY OR LOSS OF INCOME<\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re concerned about finances due to the COVID-19 pandemic, consider creating a temporary emergency budget to help better understand your financial position and guide daily decisions.
\nMake a list of all your daily, weekly, monthly and annual household expenses, separating them into six categories (add a seventh category if you have a family owned small business that impacts family finances). For each category, consider which expenses can be reduced permanently or temporarily.<\/p>\n

Required Services<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Review all required services and contact the providers to discuss your situation, as well as possible flexibility in payment schedules.

Required Expenses<\/strong><\/h3>\n
