Making The Most Out Of
Tax Opportunities Have you been making good use of the recent tax code changes to legally reduce the amount of taxes that you pay each year? Many Americans paid less due to changes in marginal tax brackets and other revisions. However, some of the tax code changes are scheduled to expire in 2025, and it’s entirely possible that they could disappear before then.
In other words, there is potentially an extremely limited opportunity to leverage current laws. With the possibility of such a narrow amount of time, it could be important to act quickly. If you believe, as I do, that the tax environment will be less favorable going forward, locking some of the advantages in while you still can could be critical. At Dunlap & Associates, we specialize in crafting tax-smart savings, investment and income strategies. Every client has a unique tax and investment situation, and we are mindful to make certain we address their specific needs. While it is true that everyone must pay taxes, we also know that not everyone pays the same amount. The tax opportunities that could be most beneficial to you depend entirely on your own personal financial circumstances. However, the complexity of the tax code means that, in order to work through your options and make smart choices, you’ll likely need a professional to help you.

Get Started Now Contact us to schedule a no-obligation appointment. We are currently meeting face-to-face in our Peachtree City office, or virtually via Zoom.
If you are currently working with a financial advisor, is he or she looking at your tax return? They should be. If they’re not talking to your CPA, neither professional has a full picture of your finances. You may be missing opportunities to make the most of your hard work and to potentially pay less in taxes. We help our clients create strategies for current and future taxes while designing an investment and retirement income strategy to help potentially minimize the taxes they will pay now and down the road. Because, when it comes to saving and investing, it’s not about what you earn, it’s really about what you get to keep.

Markie Dean Lifestyle Director
Hello! Time really does fly! It feels like we were just preparing for Christmas and all the fun activities that go along with the Holiday season. There is always something exciting about starting a new year. I don’t know if it’s the idea of getting to start something fresh or the fun of picking New Year’s resolutions to try to keep. By this time in the New Year, resolutions have already been dropped and some people have already given up on their goals for the year. I want to encourage all Cresswind residents and myself to continue our goals. Let’s not give up on the things we can all accomplish this year! We have a lot of fun ideas and plans coming up! There will be a mix of some classic activities that you all know and love, along with some brand new activities that I think everyone will enjoy. This new year has already thrown some challenges our way but we know how to adapt and still have fun! I can’t wait to continue everything that Lifestyle has to offer. Always remember to Set Yourself FREE!

NEW PEACHTREE CITY MAYOR KIM LEARNARD SPEAKS AT CRESSWIND PTC.

Arts & Crafts Club Providing a Way to Connect, Grow, and Learn with Others.
C
reativity abounds in Cresswind! Some people have a lifelong passion while others now have time to explore new interests or develop an unknown talent. When moving to a new community, it can be difficult to find others who share your interest. Arts & Crafts covers a wide range of activities – from knitting or crocheting a simple scarf to dumping out a box of junk to create a stunning mixed media piece of art. Within those interest groups, there
is also a wide range of skill levels – from dabblers to true artisans. Fortunately, the Art room in the Cresswind Amenity Center provides a pleasant area for individuals or groups to work on their projects, but who wants to always work alone? After noticing the art room seemed under-utilized, an enthusiastic group of crafty residents joined to brainstorm ways to make better use of the resource
provided by Kolter. The Cresswind Arts & Crafts Club was formed as an umbrella group that loosely connects a wide range of craft interests. The group coordinates Cresswind residents and outside teachers for classes/ workshops, schedules designated times for unstructured groups with similar interests to meet and work on projects, and provide a means to display completed projects.

Fall Arts & Crafts
The club, which now has 130 members, provides a way for crafty people to connect with others who share their interests while engaging community members to learn and grow together through arts & crafts activities. Since launching, a variety of classes have been offered so novices can explore their creative side or someone can rekindle an old hobby. So far, the group has provided classes or workshops to learn about water color and acrylic painting, acrylic pour painting, tile mosaics, jewelry making, knitting, custom sign painting, rock painting, card making, and basic pottery skills. Recently, some community members volunteered to share their expertise with bow-making classes and holiday decorating. The “Sew Crafty” group meets weekly for participants to work on individual projects involving
needlecraft (sewing, knitting, crochet, etc.) while they chat and become acquainted. A weekly guided painting class led by a resident artist and a Paint-by-Numbers group meets to socialize while working on individual projects. The paint by number group meets in the evening and will soon expand to include people working on any type-painting project. In December, the members hosted a “Pop-Up Artists Show” where the community could purchase some of the creative wares created by talented artists across several mediums. Monthly Arts & Crafts Club meetings offer a simple “Makeand-Take” craft project while sharing recently completed projects and seeking ideas from the membership about crafts and classes they would like to see offered. Whenever possible, the Club taps into the talent residing within the community to provide classes, but sometimes it is necessary Continued on page 6

to bring in an instructor. Although many classes are free, some classes require a fee to cover materials and the instructor’s time and travel. At a recent community event, the Arts & Crafts Club launched an ongoing community art project where residents painted craft sticks with any design. After enough sticks are completed during future gatherings, they will be assembled into a group artwork. Whether your interest lies with needlecraft, painting, photography, jewelry making, pottery, or any other craft you bring to table, you will likely find someone living in Cresswind who shares your passion – or is at least interested in learning about it.

INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT
Do you ever consider if you are getting the best financial advice? Are you receiving advice focused on solving your known (and unknown) problems? Are you on the road to living your fullest life? Here is the problem – planning doesn't cover every stage of a family's financial journey. Most guidance stays in a "single lane" of focus ignoring the complexities of a person's unique financial situation. At Anson, we understand you need more (and deserve more) while working towards achieving your dreams. You need a team with a personal touch that pays attention to every detail and has the experience to solve your most complex problems. Since I started Anson 17 years ago, I knew my calling was to build a firm where a personal touch, extreme

attention to detail, and a different approach was the best way to change lives. Now, we have a team of people whose mission is to provide life-changing financial advice with the highest level of standards.
We offer a no-obligation second opinion on your portfolio.
You have worked hard to build your wealth and at Anson we want to ensure you're taking appropriate steps with a focus on getting the best results. Working with a limited number of clients allows us to do things differently. Our background provides us the ability to work in all three lanes. And by doing so, we can keep your road smooth, and enable you to help the people you love and the causes you care about. Sam Sweitzer, CFA Principal

It was exciting to be recognized for doing what I love to do, so needless to say, being named to this list was an incredible honor.” Scott now has a team in place to better serve the needs of the growing number of clients. Additionally, Hunter Wealth Management has added a branch office at 430 South 8th Street in Griffin, Georgia. Scott and his team would like the opportunity to meet with you and discuss how they might help you succeed financially.
