Financial Architects, Inc. - June 2023

Summer is one of the best times of the year to travel. Kids are out of school and want to do something fun every weekend, which can be difficult to accommodate if you’ve already exhausted your local options. If you’re looking to travel, you can visit a beach, take in the sights and sounds of an amusement park, or spend some time with animals while visiting a zoo. Nearly every state in our country has a handful of zoos or aquariums, but some stand above the rest. CHECK OUT SOME OF AMERICA’S BEST ZOOS Monkey Around This Summer

For over 38 years, the center of everything we do at Financial Architects has been our clients. As we continue to expand our marketing and messaging, we promise that you will continue to be our utmost priority. For the last three years, we have incorporated a podcast series featuring three shows, each with a different theme. “Inside Financial Architects” focuses on money decisions and highlights both FAI clients and members of our team. “Living the LifeMethod” shines the spotlight on people, life experiences, and life events. In addition, our “Succession Success” podcast is Q5 Experience-centric, focusing on business exit planning and business owners looking to build enterprise value in their business. Matt Dery, our own Director of Marketing and Business Development, who has over 25 years of broadcasting experience, serves as the podcast host. But we are adding something new to our podcast episodes. We’ve been listening to your feedback, and we think you’ll love what we have in store for you moving forward! New to our podcast setup in 2023 is to create video shows on YouTube. When podcasts first started, it was an audio-only medium that became a good substitute for terrestrial radio and even satellite radio. Now, everyone wants to not just hear great content but also see it. Our first video show features Nashville recording artist Teddy Robb on our “Living the LifeMethod” podcast. Teddy is an up-and-coming country singer whose route to stardom actually started here in the Midwest. He decided to quit his college football career and aspirations in Akron and head south to chase a different dream. It is a remarkable INSIDE FINANCIAL ARCHITECTS

Here are three of the best zoos you can visit in the U.S.

OMAHA’S HENRY DOORLY ZOO AND AQUARIUM The Henry Doorly Zoo and Aquarium in Omaha, Nebraska, is consistently ranked as one of the top five zoos in the world. It prides itself on hosting rare, endangered animals you can’t see elsewhere. It has the world’s largest nocturnal exhibit, and one of the major highlights is the Desert Dome, an 84,000-square-foot indoor desert that maintains an authentic desert ecosystem. This is a must-visit for any animal lover in your family.

THE BRONX ZOO You don’t usually think about seeing exotic animals when you visit New York City, but the Bronx Zoo is one of the best places to view animals in America. Opened in 1899, the Bronx Zoo is responsible for many of the advancements relating to animal captivity. This was one of the first zoos to ditch cages for natural environments and create an animal hospital. With over 6,000 species, there’s an animal for everyone at the Bronx Zoo.

story, and Teddy plans to be here in Michigan in August to perform (stay tuned for more information about that). You can watch that interview with Matt and Teddy at YouTube. com/watch?v=xFReY0D8fWE&t=308s , and all of our podcasts can be found on our Insights page at FinancialArch.com. We’re so excited to provide you with more engaging and information-rich content in the future!

THE LIVING DESERT ZOO AND GARDENS While the San Diego Zoo is often boasted as California’s largest and best zoo, another zoo is worth checking out. The Living Desert Zoo and Gardens outside Palm Springs has entertained visitors for decades. There are events at this zoo every day, one of the most popular being the keeper connections and animal encounters, where you get up close and personal with the animals while learning more about their habitats and lifestyles.
