Team photo shoot day is always a fun one. Until we get the final results, enjoy the bloops!

It’s that season again where I have to remind my fellow men: No lobsters on the pants unless you’re literally holding corn on the cob at the moment you’re wearing them No anchors, sails or flags on the belt unless you’re a Kennedy Brown shoes with white soles are for beta males Seersucker always looks like s*** in real life, only works on the mannequin, don’t be the one in your group who thinks they can “pull it off” this summer - you cannot Madras is lame, also never looks good IRL, only on the website Waxing is not as traumatic as it looks, they can do just your shoulders and upper back in under 20 minutes, don’t be shy - make an appointment and go Nothing sleeveless if you can’t curl 30 lb dumbbells at a minimum, otherwise no one wants to see your spaghetti arms No sunglass cord around your neck - if you lose them it wasn’t meant to be, if they’re Oakleys try to lose them intentionally before someone offers you a minor league baseball contract Leather shoes without socks is disgusting and I will have you arrested (boat shoes and driving mocs excluded but please consider a modern no-show liner if possible) No flip flops on an airplane and for god’s sake get a pedicure once a month until Labor Day - I’ve been told the first thing women notice is the hands and feet, it’s evolutionary, either way don’t have claws or talons it’s 2024 Thank you for being civilized this season.

Will I see you in September? Baird has a great group of advisors attending this year. Shout out to Michael Antonelli for putting this event on my radar.

Question of the day: What do all events at Baird have in common? https://lnkd.in/gRdc4kRn

2024: The Year of the Big Mistake On this episode, Andrew Boyles, CFP®, CPWA®, QPFC® and I are joined by Baird Market Strategist Michael Antonelli to unpack why he believes that 2024 is "The Year of The Big Mistake" and how investors can be informed to not let it happen to them. https://lnkd.in/gSueJGq5

There always seems to be a reason NOT to invest - The market is too high or too low, it is a presidential election year, or the national debt is at a record high. Join Sean Miranda, CFP®, CPWA® and Michael Antonelli, Baird’s PWM Market Strategist, as they discuss investing despite the headlines. https://lnkd.in/eWMXnYRf

We hosted a client luncheon on March 13th with special guest, Michael Antonelli. Michael is a PWM Market Strategist with Baird and provided an insightful and engaging commentary around the economy in an election year and how to avoid 2024 being “the year of the big mistake.” He shared his perspective on the national debt and why the financial markets are nonpartisan. Perhaps most importantly, he reminded investors to maintain focus on what they can control (savings rate, media consumption) versus what they cannot control (inflation, politics). We had a great turnout and appreciated so many clients taking time out of their day to join us. Michael also presented at Western Kentucky University that same afternoon.

The history of bourbon, a speakeasy, bourbon tasting, and more! Baird’s inaugural “Bulls, Bears, and Bourbon” client event at the Louisville Frazier Musuem proved to be a huge success last night! Thank you Michael Antonelli for the reminders and advice - long walks and less news!
