Founders: You Are Your Greatest Asset At our recent Founders Financial Literacy event, Reuben posed a critical question for founders: “You’re more valuable than the home or car you insure, so what are you doing to protect yourself?” Investors ask about continuity—if they invest in you, how prepared is your business for the unexpected? Protecting your earning potential is an essential part of long-term success, even though it’s voluntary. If we pay to insure our car, shouldn’t we invest in securing our own future as well? Let’s work together to build a plan that protects what truly matters. https://lnkd.in/gvEk2-Hc #FinancialLiteracy #ProtectYourPotential #FoundersFinance #FinancialSecurity #WashingtonAvenueAdvisors Brandon Weaver, CFP® Flying With Founders This content does not serve as investment advice, financial advice, legal, or tax advice.
