How to Manage Competing Financial Priorities
by David Jacoby, Remote Financial Planner
Our financial lives are a constant game of tug of war. Our desires pull us, and our money, in competing directions as we try to meet all of our financial priorities. “I want to buy a home, pay off my student loans, and pay for my wedding… oh yeah, and have kids and save for retirement”—sound familiar?

Maybe it is a function of an improving US housing market, or that I primarily work with clients in their mid 20’s to early 40’s (prime home forming years), or because most of these clients live in heavily populated tech communities in San Francisco, Los Angeles, and New York — markets which have seen an incredible increase in real estate prices over the last couple of years.
