Our
Sponsor Spotlight Shines On...
David
Shires of Edward
Jones Investments
As a firm, we're focused on doing what is best for our clients.
That's why we're dedicated to serving the needs of the individual
investor and why we do so on a one-to-one basis from neighborhood
offices. Some people believe that kind of thinking is old-fashioned
or even unfashionable, but we're okay with it.
 Who
Should Invest With Us
We'll be the first to say it: Edward Jones isn't the right choice
for everyone. For decades, we've believed in the same basic strategy
of investing in quality investments that have proven themselves
over time. We understand that this approach may be considered
old-fashioned in this day and age. But if it means helping investors
realize their goals, it's an approach we're going to stick to.
If
we aren't the right choice for you, that's okay - another investment
firm that fits your personality can better serve your financial
and investment needs.
If we are the right choice, David Shires is ready to serve you.
Please call for an appointment at 745-0181. The office is located
at 98th & Indiana in the Kohl's Plaza.
Our Harlem Globetrotters Winners
We wanted to share pictures of the winners in our Harlem Globetrotters
ticket giveaway that concluded last week. Pictured below, at left,
is the entire Burt family of Littlefield; at
right is Cody from Petersburg, pictured with
your Lubbock Fun Club hosts, Shane and Steph. Of course, the performance
by the 'Trotters is TONIGHT at 7:00 p.m. in the
United Spirit Arena! We hope many of you are planning to attend.
It'll be a great time!
