Hello there. This is James Mayer. Quick Sunday night thought for you. Had a pretty good weekend. The weather yesterday was amazing.

Local football team won today, so everybody's in a good mood. And as I know, the weather's going to turn. I thought about a conversation I have with a client about he wanted to buy a new motorcycle, and he was looking for some comfort in his big picture plan on if it made sense and how to finance it and should he pay cash and all of these other discussions. And We went through a number of different scenarios, but at the end of the day, this client does a great job of saving for retirement.

Him and his wife they do a couple things, they like to travel, and they like to ride motorcycles. And we live in Northeast Ohio, and the amount of time that you can ride a motorcycle It's a little limited because of the weather. Knowing how important his hobbies and passions are for him and his family, this was kind of a no brainer decision for him, but he needed to bounce some ideas off me. He needed to discuss,

Could he afford it?

Would it mess up his big picture plan?

And knowing him as well as I did, it was easy to walk him through and help him make a good decision. Now I hope yesterday he got out and was able to ride his motorcycle in December, Northeast Ohio. That's a big deal. But sometimes you just need someone to bounce financial decisions off, and that's something we happily do for all of our clients. Hope you have a great week.

Quick thought. Take care.
