I have a financial advisor.
You might refer to him as a gentleman who gives free financial advice to military families, but I say financial advisor.
Garr and I walk in like the couple of knuckleheads we are and start slinging phrases like, “We’re looking to diversify our portfolios a bit…..”
This bruh was brilliant. He had all sorts of book recommendations (for me) and color-coded charts (for Garrett to comprehend). He broke down stock options, CDs, volatile 401k funds, the WORKS! We even learned what a bond is! Though I can’t entirely remember, I know it blew my mind. I left feeling like, I’m sorry, why wasn’t I taught any of this in school? Maybe I was snoozing or passing notes, but I really don’t think anyone ever explained to me the (dark & twisted) credit score system.
Now it’s time to play the stock market – going all in on my self-tanner company and the vegan restaurants I like.

I normally comment on your words and then forget to mention the food. So can I just say that like your FA, you are helping me to diversify my portfolio of food. You will be remembered in my Will but unfortunately with all this goodness going into my bod, it’ll probably be at least 50 years before you receive your bequest 😉
