Hello! My name is Duncan Green, and I am currently a senior at McLean High School. I am excited to attend The University of Virginia next fall where I will apply for acceptance to the McIntire School of Commerce my second year. Both my parents attended UVA and my older sister is currently in her 3^rd year - no surprise why I am such an avid UVA fan. Although, after their early exit from the 2018 NCAA basketball tournament, I am much more reluctant to admit that.

May 29th is National 529 College Savings Plan Day – and while we aren’t sending each other Hallmark cards for this holiday (yet!), it is a good reminder to stop and think about your family’s education savings strategy.

These days, cyber security is a top priority for everyone.  Here at WWA, client security and privacy is a top priority for all of us.  We strive to educate our clients to make sure they are protected as so much of what they do is done over the internet…from online transactions to sending their tax accountants data, to asking questions about their accounts.  As a Client Relationship Manager here at WWA, I work with our clients and their data daily.  I wanted to share some quick advice that will help keep you all safe.

We have learned that many people recognize April 26th as #GetOrganizedDay.  So, how about getting your financial planning ducks in a row?  Washington Wealth Advisors can help.

If creating a financial plan is a "to do" for you, then there is no better time to start that plan than today.

In March, President Trump announced that he would begin imposing tariffs on steel and aluminum, sparking fears of a global trade war. Both the media and markets were up in arms over his announcement. But, why? What exactly is a trade war and what would it mean for the US economy and you, personally?
