Gaining to Give

New season of Gaining To Give!  Season 3 kicks off with a fun series entitled "Through The Eras" (And yes, it may have been slightly inspired by Taylor Swift.)  Each week of the series, Josh will focus on a particular decade of adulthood, offering financial wisdom and milestones to be aware of.  While this is a time when many are just getting their financial feet underneath them, it's never too early to establish small habits that will pay off in big ways over time.  We don't know about you, but we're feeling 22 (at least for this week)!

It's no secret there are many benefits of consulting a professional when it comes to your finances, but have you considered that not all Advisors are able to offer their clients the same level of service.  On this week's episode, Josh talks with friend and colleague, Wilson Wise, about his journey of founding his own independent financial advisory firm in Lexington, KY.   In addition to offering more freedom and flexibility for him and his clients, Wilson talks about the ways it has reiterated the importance of generosity in all aspects of life.
