Good Financial Reads: Advice for Navigating Uncertainty

It has been over a year and a half since I have written a post on this site, and I thought it would be good to give a slight update as I swing back into writing. It's been a unique year and a half for everyone, to say the least. March of 2020 saw the beginning of the COVID-19 and set into motion events and actions that we are all still very much dealing with today. On top of these events, many of us have had personal changes during the same period of time that have altered our lives in significant ways.

This month, we're taking a break from real estate to talk about an emerging trend we felt needed addressing.

The past 18 months have probably been some of the weirdest and most stressful any of us have experienced, especially the younger generations.

In March 2020, life as we knew it screeched to a halt. For a long time, people would say, "When life gets back to normal..." But I think now, over 15 months in, we know our lives will permanently be altered by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Some changes were good and some were bad. But as with all situations, we must reflect on what we've learned. I'd like to talk about how our values might have changed or solidified during the pandemic and what that means for our finances.
