DISASTER PLANNING
Nothing could have prepared any of us for the human loss and devastation of last week's terrorist attacks. But there are many other kinds of disasters that befall small businesses and families.  Hurricanes, tornadoes, blizzards, fire, and earthquakes are among the occurrences that could destroy business equipment, computer data and other records - even if you operate from a home office. Are you prepared? Could your business - and your family finances survive? Here are some preparedness steps you should consider now to minimize or avoid devastating financial loss from such catastrophes.
