Your Privacy – Our Top Concern In an age of unsolicited emails, you can trust FCF to keep your information confidential. We do not spam you with junk email or daily emails; which we absolutely hate ourselves. We adhere to a two-week email schedule, which may be more frequent is a significant event takes place. We never share your email addresses with any third party, and we never send unwanted emails to you. We are a company that protects and safeguard the privacy of our prospective and existing clients. See our privacy policy for more information. Newsletter Content: The FCF Blog and Connecting Dots Podcast The email you receive provides a brief introduction to the content on our blog and podcast that we think you may find of interest. We also provide links to articles, documents, podcasts, and videos of others that we feel you may find of interest. Our Writing Style We strongly encourage all FCF home office and field personnel to keep it short, simple, and to the point. We think mathematically and make liberal use of bullet-points and lists. Long-ago we learned that our style of writing must be concise, well organized, and formatted to ensure ease when scanning a document for important information. This Money Stuff Isn’t Easy No kidding. We know that. Even though it’s easy for us, it’s not for 95% of the U.S. population. Per 100,000 Americans, there are approximately 295 medical doctors, 40 lawyers nationwide (788 in DC, 90 in New York, and 64 in Maryland), 203 CPAs, 400 accountants, 63 financial analysts, and 15 investment advisor representatives. Moreover, so, if you happen to be a bit confused as to what an investment advisor is, don’t worry, you’re at the right place. We’ll make sure you know what a true-fiduciary based investment advisor is and how rare we are.
