The world of social media moves so fast, I decided it would be a good idea to do an episode every year to help everyone stay up to date on current trends. Who better to do this with than our resident expert, Jennifer Quinn from YouBeingSocial.com? Last year we talked about Periscope and Blab as […]

I can’t take it anymore. The news just makes me either angry, sad, or disgusted. I have been drifting away from mainstream news for awhile, and am trying to go cold turkey. A few years back, I read some business books saying that watching the news or reading it, is a grandiose waste of time. […]
There are two coverages that should be built into your auto policy. They are called Uninsured motorists and underinsured motorists. They protect you and anyone in your car if you are hit by someone who doesn’t have ANY insurance or if they don’t have enough insurance. These are an important defense to making sure you […]
