I wanted to take a moment and thank Carrigan who works with me.  Can you believe that we are going into our third year together?  Carrigan is a rare find and I feel so fortunate to have her support me and our clients. This picture is from an outing where we went to Liquidity Wines for an…

As I mentioned in my Blog last week, I wanted to present a case study that shows the premium paid into a benefit plan is just one aspect in deciding what Insurance Company to work with.  I will not use the Insurance Companies names, since this has nothing to do with one Insurance Company being better…
