AARP has a voter engagement campaign titled “Be the Difference. Vote”. If you haven’t already, please commit to voting on November 6th by signing our voters’ pledge and visit

https://action.aarp.org/site/SPageNavigator/2018_Voter_Pledge.html. We want to raise the voice and share the importance of the 50+ voter. We want voters to ask important questions to the candidates around issues impacting the 50+ community.

Before you cast your vote on Nov. 6, make sure you know where candidates for the U.S. House of Representatives, U.S. Senate and presidency stand on these three issues:

  1. How would you protect Social Security for today’s seniors and strengthen it for future generations?
  2. How would you put Medicare on stronger financial ground and protect today’s seniors and future retirees from the

    burden of rising health costs?

  3. How would you help Americans build a financial nest egg for their retirement?

Know your candidates! Candidates’ Websites:

Thank you for your contributions to the Sacred Heart Pack-A-Back program, which is such a good cause. If some supplies appear this month, that’s okay too. The need is really year-round. The purple folder with your volunteer hours inside is always a treat to record and try to get into the correct categories each month. I try to remember to put mine on my calendar as I do them, but we all know what happens to good intentions! I’ll be on vacation at the time of the next meeting so my helpers will sort out my responsibilities and keep my work for me until I return. All our board positions have back-up arrangements so we can keep the ball rolling. It’s always good to be going on vacation instead of the hospital!

The Department of Labor’s Fiduciary Rule is all but dead! A federal appeals court tossed it out. How does this affect you? If your financial advisor is a registered representative (works at a bank?) — I would encourage you to seek a second opinion.

Consider scheduling a complimentary review – the meeting is no charge.
BONUS 1: In the process of the review we will adjust your beneficiaries to match how you think they are setup.

BONUS 2: Download your free survivor’s checklist at (no strings attached) http://OnestaWealth.com/survivorchecklist

Consider finding out more today by calling Rock Loek at 408-459-8383.

HINT: if you have a variable annuity it is likely that you are NOT working with a fiduciary. http://OnestaWealth.com/ fiduciarystandard

Onesta Wealth Management is a fee only Registered Investment Advisor regulated by the SEC and located in California.
