Good news on the #economic front! Remember that many naysayers do a good job of being REALLY loud (pretty consistently too), but overall the #economy and markets have a positive bias over the long-term. ow.ly/mz9o50SYrGi

When's the last time you were gave a vice presidential candidate advice about his #pension & #403b in a national publication? Our President, Mychal Eagleson, was able to do just last week. Don't miss it... maybe Mr. Walz will give us a call sometime! ow.ly/zswl50SXiNA

Bam bam, back-to-back, if you are or have been an AT&T customer, protect yourself! Even though it was revealed the company paid the ransom to have the data deleted, can you really trust that hackers stuck to their word and actually deleted it. ow.ly/jzX450SBIgt
