Carl Richards is a friend of our firm and has been for years, even before he became The New York Times “Sketch Guy.” This may well be one of Carl’s earliest drawings connecting money and emotion, but it’s still one of our all-time favorites.

As promised, we’ve prepared this year’s summer reading for our clients and will be mailing books out this week. It’s the latest from the NY Times sketch guy, Carl Richards. The One-Page Financial Plan is a great starter tool for anyone who hasn’t achieved a clear financial plan. If you can’t commit to reading the entire book, don’t miss the intro, chapter 8, and chapter 9.
