Pop Quiz/Survey

Have you mindfully bought local goods and services over the last week? For example, were you drawn to a farmer’s market, a locally owned hardware store, a local restaurant (not a franchise or part of a large chain), or local grocer?

Do you have a checking or savings account at a locally owned bank, thrift, or credit union?

If you have any savings for your retirement, where is it currently invested? If you don’t have any savings for your retirement, answer in terms of  what you will do with whatever future savings you think you’ll have (including money you might inherit someday, equity you will have if you someday sell your house and downsize, money you intend to start saving for retirement once you reach other financial goals, etc.)
