PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE

HAVE I DONE ANY GOOD IN THE WORLD TODAY

Reed W. LarsenPresident, Idaho State Bar Board of Commissioners

Have I Done Any Good?

Have I done any good in the world today?Have I helped anyone in need?Have I cheered up the sad and made someone feel glad?If not, I have failed indeed.Has anyone’s burden been lighter todayBecause I was willing to share?Have the sick and the weary been helped on their way?When they needed my help was I there?

Then wake up and do something moreThan dream of your mansion above.Doing good is a pleasure, a joy beyond measure,A blessing of duty and love.

There are chances for work all around just now,Opportunities right in our way.Do not let them pass by, saying, “Sometime I’ll try,”But go and do something today.’Tis noble of man to work and to give;Love’s labor has merit alone.Only he who does something helps others to live.To God each good work will be known.

Text and music: Will L. Thompson, 1847–1909

Fine print has its place. Just not in a banking relationship. That’s why we developed straight-forward, real-world banking solutions for legal professionals. Frankly, we work hard to understand some of the unique banking needs of law firms. Like how progress billing affects cash flow. Or the financial implications of professional partnerships. And, believe us, we’re not just hurling platitudes or marketing slogans here. We’ve actually put a team in place with significant experience helping law firms both with their day-to-day banking needs as well as more complex transactions such as buying real estate. We even work closely with our attorney clients to better integrate their business and personal banking matters in a way that makes sense. It’s only logical. Sorry. We’re starting to ramble. And we’re not even to the part about our competitive rates and stability (did we mention we have the highest capital ratio in Idaho?). Really. We should stop. But hopefully you understand what we’re trying to say. If you don’t or if you have questions about how we can help you, let’s talk: call us at 208.332.0700 or visit www.westerncapitalbank.com. Thanks for reading.
