"Money Matters"

Tune in for free financial tune-ups.

If there’s one thing most people can agree on, it’s the fact that money matters. That’s why we started a radio show by that name — “Money Matters,” heard on WHTC 1450 AM and on the new 99.7 FM.

Since 2005, Carey and Jack have broadcasted their show on local radio station WHTC 1450 AM Radio. Tune in at 10:10 each Saturday morning for some free advice you can put to use to give your financial outlook a tune-up.

The show is part of our commitment to the community we serve. While we believe that professional financial planners play an important role in helping families and small businesses prosper, we also know that the strategies that help you thrive start with you. The more you know, the better you can do.

We invite you to call in with questions during show hours!

The number is (616) 395-1450 — or email us at koelegodfrey@lpl.com with your questions and comments.
