If you are a teacher facing divorce, it is important to know that the financial issues can be uniquely complex. The financial aspects of any divorce are often difficult. For teachers, asset division is complicated by a particular qualifier—teachers do not contribute to Social Security.

April Quote of the Month

Pet Spotlight

Hey everyone, meet BOBBY, a super fabulous 110 lb Great Dane mix. Bobby is 11 years YOUNG and in great shape. If I didn't tell you his age you'd never guess it.

Bobby's dad moved overseas and chose not to take Bobby with him. Bobby is okay with that because he knows he's going to be just fine. He has a lot of people working hard to find him a new home for his golden years.

BOBBY LOVES PEOPLE! He doesn't need a ton of exercise at his age, but a fenced-in yard would be preferred so he can run around and play fetch.

If you would like to meet BOBBY please email Army's Legacy at armyslegacyrescuesanctuary@gmail.com.
