Tariffs, The Election, and whether or not you can be a better investor by knowing the future. We decided to do something a little bit different this month. We have a few bite sized pieces on interesting topics that caught our eye as we look forward. We call it the Millegan Memo.

In between conversations with interested festival attendees, we conducted a poll of 58 willing participants as to their current feelings on the economy, as well as their own personal investments.  In exchange, participants received a free Woodworth-branded shot glass.  From this poll, a familiar trend emerged.
