In an industry with plenty of demand for work, but not enough manpower to get it done, Troy Smith has been on an expedition to make accounting "sexy" again with his company, The Pandora Group.  Troy has dedicated years to helping his clients invest their money not only the "right" places, but the places that make the most sense for that individual. He breaks down the concept that there is no "one size fits all" approach to investing, and the importance of figuring out what that "size" is for you. Tune in this week and learn a thing or two about what investing may look like for you!
