From The Desk of Andy Mainville
Disease, war, inflation, supply chain issues, stock market declines, protests, and who knows what else is next…
While I was on vacation, I was talking to my wife and we were reflecting on the state of the world right now and where we think things are headed.
For some reason I can’t help but feel like there is something brewing out there - like there’s a storm forming - and it’s not a matter of if... but a matter of when.
Trust me, I’m not one of these conspiracy theory guys - but at some point I think history is bound to repeat itself and there might be a short period of tough times ahead.
Ultimately, I believe everything will be OK but I want to be as prepared as I can be.
It’s like a quote one of my buddy’s told me:
“It’s better to have it and not need it – than to need it and not have it”
I wanted to share my personal checklist with you just in case you might feel the same way I do.
Feel free to print this checklist out so that you have easy access to it and if you want... You can share this with your family and friends if you think they might find some value from it.
Hopefully, my feelings are wrong and things only get better…
To better times ahead...
Cheers,
Andy Mainville
