PROFESSIONAL RECOMMENDATIONS
Habits worth adopting before your next review.
Log the same day it changes
Update the entry the day an account changes, not weeks later from memory.
Never leave a category empty
An unsorted asset is one that gets forgotten during the next review.
Export before the meeting
Bring a clean summary to every advisor or accountant conversation, not raw statements.
