Tonight marked our final seminar of the Spring season. We were pleased to welcome Cheri Brooks, Managing Director at Neuberger, who flew in from Chicago to present “Money, Women, and Power.” This content focused on the statistical fact that 90% of married women will find themselves managing household finances and family legacy goals at some point. It is paramount that both spouses be engaged in these topics on a regular basis. Our team stands ready to assist in these family conversations and important decisions. Thank you to Neuberger’s Todd Brauer, MBA for coordinating all parties and to D and L Country Products for another delicious meal!

We will restart our seminar series in August following a short break for the summer. If you are interested in attending future events, let us know!
