    We were priviledged to be on a panel discussion with General Alexander Haig, former Secretary of State under President Reagan. The General wanted to have a show about financial planning, but he wanted independent advisors to participate. Applied Financial Planning, Inc. was chosen. Bill and Robert sat on panel with the General. You may have seen it on the BRAVO channel. We will be receiving the copy and will make it available if you would like to see the discussion.
