The month of May marks the beginning of a new era of communicating with you on a topic near and dear to most of us -- money and financial issues. On Sunday, May 17th we began co-hosting a weekly radio show on FM 103.1 from 5pm to 6pm entitled "Money Talks on Jukebox Radio". If you are in Rockland County, the show is carried on FM 94.3, and in the Greater Hudson Valley, it is carried on FM 99.7. Our co-hosts are financial and investment planners from Masters Financial, Ltd. of Maplewood New Jersey. Jukebox Radio is the successor to WNEW AM, having acquired all of that station's music tapes and CDs. Jukebox Radio broadcasts from Bergen County playing music from "The Swing Era" to today's "Easy on the Ears Sound" along with the latest news from Northern New Jersey and beyond from the ABC Radio Network, plus precise traffic and weather reports. We are pleased to be a part of Jukebox Radio's Network.

"Money Talks on Jukebox Radio" presents topical financial issues on both a national and local level that directly affect you, including a wrap up of financial events and a look forward. The show addresses your concerns about money -- saving and spending wisely, planning for you and your family's future, your retirement, college education, buying a home, insurance and more. Martin Dever, a partner in our Trusts and Estates Department, will be on the show to discuss estate and tax planning, business succession planning, and much more.

The show is interactive. You can call in, ask questions of Marty and others, and get information and feedback, in addition to suggesting other topics you would like addressed on the show in the upcoming weeks. Going forward, other members of our firm will participate in the show as well, so that we can give you a variety of perspectives for dealing with your financial success.

Let me know what you think of the program. And remember, any of the topics you hear, or would like us to address can also be presented on site at your business or other organization. We regularly present on site programs from all of our practice groups; Health Care, Employment, Business Transactions and Finance, Litigation, Trusts and Estates and Insurance Defense. Let us know how we can help you be more successful this year.
