Because you want to spend your time serving your clients, not your regulators.
When I am not helping my clients serve their clients, I enjoy going on adventures with my family; supporting the Nationals, Capitals, Commanders and Old Glory DC; and participating in various CSAUP (Completely Stupid And Utterly Pointless) athletic events with my friends. I support the Alzheimer’s Association and other charitable organizations. You will even find me serving pancakes (among other duties) at Calvary United Methodist Church.
