For the last 18 months I have had both a website and a blog… and I am not sure why. The website had a few pages I thought were particularly relevant about my qualifications, mission, financial planning in general, as well as the planning process but for original content about timely issues my blog offered more. Having two separate web presences, neither of which were exactly on target, seemed inefficient so I set out to combine the best of both into one complete web presence. What you now see is the result (if you are a subscriber and are reading this via email, please take a moment to check out the updated site).
Navigation is now centralized on the right side and is consistent on every page. On the navigation bar you will find:
- A choice to email me or fill out an online form to ask a reader question
- The pages about my qualifications, mission, financial planning in general, as well as the planning process I liked so much on the website.
- A brand new content section where you can access the archives or visit the new table of contents which lists the last 15 posts for every topic.
- Also in the content section is a list of my all-time favorite posts and a blog roll of my favorite locally written blogs.
I think the new design is more effective because it is easier to find exactly what you are looking for. But the site was not designed for me. It was designed for you. Let me know what you like or if you have any changes to suggest.

Good to see the new site up. Looking good!
