Last summer when we were making larger shifts in your portfolio allocation, we explained that we wanted more US stocks vs international. Our reasoning was that, when we get a cold, the rest of the world gets the flu. Fast forward from last July – I never thought the whole world would get the flu, but here we are.
Last week, we talked about the importance of taking care of yourself when it comes to looking after your loved ones. One thing I didn’t touch on last week that I want to explore today is the importance of prioritizing not only your physical health, but your mental health as well. Thankfully we live in a time where talking about mental health no longer conjures up images of straightjackets and stark hospitals. These days, it’s more about finding some zen. At least, that’s what I tell myself!
When you think of Valentine’s Day, what comes to your mind? Hearts? Flowers? Candy? Fancy dinners? Romance? Personally I think that version of Valentine’s Day only belongs to a small part of the population, and even then, it only lasts for a few years.
Ah, February. The month of love, right? While most people think of romantic love during February, I’m going to focus on ways to take care of your loved ones and your family, especially when it comes to where you spend your money.
