Having family gather around the table to enjoy delicious food is one of the best - if not the best - parts of Thanksgiving. However, after such a crazy 1.5 years, you never know how someone feels about a certain topic or what is going to set someone off on a tangent. No one wants to stir the pot on Thanksgiving (unless it’s full of gravy!), so we decided to share several safe conversation starters for this Thanksgiving meal.
- What everyone has been enjoying lately
A good tip in life is to ask someone what they’ve been enjoying lately. This not only forces them to think about something positive, but also gives you a glimpse into something more personal. You might be surprised at what they share!
- How it’s easier now to pay less and save more
Historically, getting advice for how to handle your finances best has been a large fee. Now, we see fees slowly decreasing, which means information is becoming more accessible. This is a great trend that everyone can get behind!
- 2022 Goals
It’s never too early to start talking about goals and dreams! Our goal here is to help you prepare so you can live out your dreams. By talking about goals and dreams aloud, they become more real. This also gives you something to keep following up and checking back in with your family members about throughout 2022.
- A robust stock market enables you to catch up on retirement
People may be surprised at how much value they can gain in a relatively short period of time because of all the options available out there. It all starts with a plan, which is why it’s so important to talk about it so people understand it’s doable to save even if they think they’re “behind.” If coming up with a plan sounds like something you may be interested in, I’d love to chat through options with you!
