Contextual Finance - or Why Benchmarks are Important
by James Bradley, Penobscot Financial Advisors
People who have been on earth at least as long as I have will recognize the riff off the king of the one-liners, Henny Youngman. More on Henny later, but I think this joke hits the nail right on the head.

What's In A Fund Prospectus?
by Massimiliano De Santis, DESMO Wealth Advisors
You have seen it in the footnotes of any marketing materials: “Please read the prospectus carefully before investing.” Going through one is not very enjoyable given the legalese in which they are written. However, there is quite a bit of useful information, so if you have never read one, I suggest you do. It can help you discern whether a fund is active or passive, gives you estimates of the cost of investing, and help you decide whether the fund should be in your portfolio, or at least weed out funds that should not be.
Following along with the blogs of financial advisors is a great way to access valuable, educational information about finance — and it doesn’t cost you a thing! Our financial planners love to share their knowledge and help everyone regardless of age or assets.
