General Motors’ employees have a problem. A BIG problem. Over 42,000 were notified before the beginning of the summer that GM’s promise to pay them a lifetime income upon retirement (once known as a “pension”) was being CANCELLED! And they all had less than 60 days to decide what they wanted to do about the next 25-40 years of their lives. Their choices were: “Take a lump sum payout – and then YOU decide how to make it...

A New Kind of Wealth Management with a Purpose! The closer you get to financial independence, the more vital questions about your purpose in life become, whether you’re ready or not: “What did you do when you worked?” is irrelevant. “Where did it all get you?” and “What do you WANT now, with the next chapter of your life?” are the things that matter. The time to ask these questions in earnest really should begin perhaps...
