Tweetable Quotes:

  • “I cannot earn you the same rate of return that you potentially can earn in your small business but if we believe in diversification and all these foundational investment principles, then it’s prudent. It’s good stewardship to have something outside not have all your money tied up in one entity.” – Erik Garcia, CFP®
  • “Money is a source of joy and of stress for many relationships. Think of money as being the number one cause of friction and fighting, and distress.” – Dr. Matt Morris, LPC, LMFT
  • “You can give people and couples a manual of how to manage their money and they still can’t do it. Fear gets involved, habit gets involved, desire gets involved. These emotional experiences that are running in the background, that are affecting or driving or influencing behavior.” – Dr. Matt Morris, LPC, LMFT
