SFA Newsletter Q3 2017

Many of our clients have expressed that they enjoyed receiving our quarterly newsletter.  Unfortunately, the provider that facilitated our newsletter has discontinued that service.  After much research, we have chosen AdvisorStream as our new provider.  This is the first installment of that newsletter.

We want to be respectful of your time (and your inbox).  However, we trust you will find these articles helpful and insightful.

We are very careful in our selection process and realize that not all content applies to each of our clients; however, we hope that you will remain on our email list and provide us feedback on what you like and dislike.  In addition to the quarterly newsletter, we may send you other Timely Topics from time to time.

Feel free to contact us if you want to discuss any of this information, or need to schedule a time to talk with your advisor.
