How Subsidies Will be Trued Up in 2015
The annual health care reform open enrollment will be upon us, beginning Nov. 15 and continuing through Feb. 15, 2015. While we do not have all the plans and pricing at this time, we are expecting to see some new “players” in the marketplace, which we hope will offer better options.

Similar to a fence, a clearly articulated estate plan is designed to keep the peace, promote harmony and give family members, creditors and other interested parties a clear statement … [Read more...] about Terms and Documents for Planning Your Estate

In the state of Arizona, there are two licensed professionals who can sell and fit hearing aids: a hearing aid dispenser and a dispensing audiologist. A hearing aid dispenser will often say that an audiologist's education concentrates on the diagnostic procedures, whereas the dispenser is a hearing instrument specialist. That may have been true many decades ago but in addition to diagnostics, … [Read more...] about Buying Hearing Aids
Failure IS an option
I teach a first-year seminar on self-leadership. One of my favorite topics is dealing with failure. My main message is that failure is an event, not a permanent condition.

Failure is, in fact, often only a waypoint to ultimate success. Our view of and reaction to failure determines how failure impacts you … [Read more...] about Failure IS an option
