Musings from the CU Suite

Sep 23, 2016

A little weekend reading...

Compiled by Anthony Demangone

It was a heck of a week. NAFCU's Congressional Caucus was stupendous. A certain hearing in Washington highlighted the importance of culture and values. The largest data breach "ever" took place. And if you count Sunday as the start of the week, the Steelers rolled over Cincinnati.

Like I said, a heck of a week.

Here's hoping you are looking forward to a fantastic weekend. Now on to the reads!
