With 34 million people using robo advisors just this year, you might be wondering, what's all the hype about? But before you hand over the reins of your finances to AI, here are important questions you need to ask yourself:

1. What are my long-term financial goals? (Think retirement, buying a home, or college savings).
2. How comfortable am I with investment risk?
3. Does the robo advisor offer the investment options you’re interested in?
4. Does the robo advisor provide tax-optimization strategies?
5. How do the costs and benefits of a robo advisor compare to a traditional financial advisor?

How can you prepare for disaster in your business? Here's a good place to start...

💰 Keep at least three months of operating cash or liquid assets on hand to help your business survive emergencies.

📑 Understand your insurance coverage, store important documents safely, and learn about government resources like grants and emergency loans available after disasters.

👱🏽‍♀️👨🏼‍🦰 Know your customers well and be prepared to adjust your business operations to meet their needs during a crisis, just like businesses did in 2020.

⬱ Don’t rely on a single supplier. Build relationships with multiple suppliers and ensure they have their own crisis plans in place to protect your business.

📝 Start planning for potential disasters by asking “What if?” Write down your plan, share it with others, and keep refining it to ensure your business can survive tough situations.
