LT LOV Thank you to the Lake Travis community for LTlov's very successful school supplies and backpack drive serving low-income LTISD students. Our goal is to send every student to school with all of the supplies they need to succeed this year, including a backpack. Together we have made a difference in the lives of families coded economically disadvantaged by providing this expensive but necessary means of staying organized and prepared. Special thanks to the businesses who hosted collection bins, to the Lake Travis Crisis Ministry and PODER for helping spread the word about receiving supplies and for help with distribution and to our many volunteers.

Partnering with fine organizations such as the Bee Cave Police Department, the Bee Cave Public Library, and Lake Travis Middle School on some service projects, and with the support of local businesses such as Elite Wellness Chiropractic, Broadway Bank, HEB, Raymond James, A+ FCU, Mimi's Café, Café Blue, and others, the club is dedicated to making a difference in the community.

RETIRE BETTER

LET’S TALK WITH JOSH STIVERS

DO YOU FEEL CONNECTED TO YOUR MONEY? WHEN YOU OPEN YOUR BANK AND BROKERAGE STATEMENTS, DO YOU BREATHE A SIGH OF RELIEF OR GASP IN ANXIETY? DO YOU FULLY UNDERSTAND HOW YOUR LONG TERM INVESTMENT PLAN MATCHES UP WITH YOUR CURRENT DAILY LIFESTYLE?

Through discussions over the years, I have found that many people do not know where they truly stand financially. Yes, they know they have investment accounts, retirement accounts, and bank accounts. They know they have life and health insurance in place. And they know they are covered in the event of a major disaster. But, what they don’t know is how to interact with their overall finances in such a way that they feel confident in the decisions they make on a day to day basis. Many have expressed an underlying fear that they will never be financially independent. I would like to offer encouragement to you today. It is possible to get a handle on your financial picture. Often, just having a conversation about your finances with a knowledgeable professional can make all the difference. If you are feeling a bit disconnected from your current financial plan, I would love to sit down with you and discuss your unique situation. I opened Platinum Wealth Advisory, right here in Lakeway, seven years ago with the desire to help individuals in our community win at the financial game. Our doors are open to this community and we want to help and assist in any way possible.
