Financial Planning Tip –

What to do when your identity is stolen

This article was so popular this month we wanted to review it again at a very high level as it made our Financial Planning Tip of the month:

Things to do when your identity is stolen:

1. Review the Federal Trade Commissions site on Identity Theft and Fraud Alerts
2. Visit one or all of the credit agencies to alert them to your situation and ask them for a free 90 credit monitoring program (Transunion and here is Experian)
3. If it was a severe attack and damages occurred, consider a Identity Theft Recovery Plan
4. Consider a Credit Freeze

Economic Update

Payroll Jumps

We crowed loudly at an outlier payroll report two months ago. As a reminder job hiring AKA Payroll is a measure of the economy. The May report released in June was… well a real stinker. As we mentioned, it just did not add up…..

Vindicated

Boom!… Nice bounce back- far right bar!

Have a Great Day!

See you again at the end of August and the beginning of school !
