Many want to give more but don’t know the best way to go about it in their financial plans. Generosity has a way of rippling out, spreading widely, and affecting more people. Keep the conversation going.  “My challenge to advisors was, if your vision is to provide for your family, then your vision is too small. We have the capacity and the capability to bless a lot more people if we put in the effort.” – Joe BertilsonConnect with Joe Bertilson: Website: https://cedruswealthgroup.com/ Email: [email protected] LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/joe-bertilson-a578881b Episode References:The Truest Fan MastermindConnect with Rob Brown & Phil Calandra:Website: http://truestfan.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/truestfan  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/truestfan/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@truestfancoachingLinkedIn Group: https://www.linkedin.com/groups/8496989/ Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/truestfan
