Lineweaver Wealth Advisors is proud to announce that we have been named as one of the Top 15 Advisors in Cleveland by Crain’s Cleveland Business, moving up three spaces from 18 last year. We are humbled to have received this recognition and credit the hard-working team at LWA and the many clients that we have who put their trust in us.  According to the list, LWA is one of only 5 of the 25 on the list of Advisory services that grew over the last year. We do that in two ways. First, our goal is to make smart decisions with our client's money, which helps benefit them. And the second is that our clients, friends, and neighbors are constantly referring new clients to us. We want to help them be successful, so that it’s easy for our clients to say good things about us. Our staff work hard and go the extra mile for our clients while adding a personal touch. People are sick of the phone tree and digital assistants where you’re the one that must answer questions when you have important questions you want to ask your advisor. Technology is important – we use it to help build and monitor our client’s customized portfolios. But, just as important is being able to talk directly to your advisor or a member of our service team if you need help.

The perceived value of one cryptocurrency over another is based on the notion that the holder of the digital currency gains exclusive access to a given type of blockchain technology,” says Mark Williams (Questrom’93), a Questrom School of Business master lecturer in finance and executive-in-residence. Blockchain uses a volunteer computer network, controlled by no one, to record cyber-currency transactions that while public, link to just an electronic address. Enthusiasts foresee blockchain technology being applied to stocks, bonds, contracts, and other assets. Some speculators view this as a lottery ticket, and if the market adopts your blockchain type, the payday will be astronomical. But this has also created an extreme asset bubble. Betting on a particular cryptocurrency is fraught with uncertainty and high risk. My advice to those contemplating buying cryptocurrencies: do your homework first, understand your personal risk tolerance, and if interested, commit only an amount of money that you are willing to lose and that won’t impact you financially if it is a total bust.
