Shoutout to Robert Crouch from HealthMarkets for his engaging and eye-opening presentation at our AmSpirit Columbus Chapter meeting!
Titled “How Well Do You Know What Robert Does for a Living?”, the session used menti.com to tally live responses — and it turns out, we knew surprisingly little about his work in the medical insurance field.
Thanks to Robert’s clear communication, smart use of technology, and his very intuitive website — callrobert.com — we now have a much better understanding of the wide range of insurance solutions he offers.
Great example of using interactive tech to simplify complex topics and connect with your audience!

💰 Taxable Brokerage Accounts: The Unsung Hero of Wealth Building
Most people overlook them in favor of 401(k)s and IRAs—but here’s what they’re missing:
✅ No contribution limits
✅ No early withdrawal penalties
✅ Tax-efficient strategies available
✅ Perfect for goals before retirement
Sure, taxes apply—but with the right plan, they can be minimized or even leveraged.
Want flexibility and growth? A taxable account might be your secret weapon.
