Lessons from Woodstock

Submitted by Fountain Financial Associates | Financial Advisors on September 26th, 2019

In August of 1969, 400,000 people traveled to a 600 acre farm in Bethel, New York to celebrate three days of love, peace and music. This iconic event became widely regarded as a pivotal moment in the music movement and the counterculture generation. Perhaps some of you attended or at least remember the pictures on television. This summer marked the 50th year anniversary of Woodstock.

From Seed to Flower

Submitted by Fountain Financial Associates | Financial Advisors on September 26th, 2019

Posted by Chris Riley in the FFA Fall 2019 Newsletter

This is quite the memorable fall for me, as my youngest daughter begins her fresh­man year of college. From curly-headed toddler to beautiful, intelligent young lady went by far too fast. I am very proud of who she’s become through her strong faith, independence, belief in herself and hard work. I’ve had the good fortune to see scores of other young men and women pursue their higher education over the past two decades, and while some things most certainly change, the core tenets of education and gaining lifelong wisdom still remain. It is a time of life that many of us will never forget nor will our children and grandchildren, as they mature towards adulthood.
