Secure Retirement

March is full of fascinating moments that pushed boundaries, broke barriers, and even left the solar system. Here are a few standout historical milestones we’re reflecting on this month:

🚀 March 2, 1972 - NASA launched “Pioneer 10,” the first spacecraft to travel beyond the asteroid belt and send back close-up images of Jupiter. It eventually became the first manmade object to leave the solar system.

🪥 March 14, 1833 - Lucy Hobbs, the first woman to become a licensed dentist in the U.S., was born. A true trailblazer, she used her platform to advocate for women’s rights and left a legacy that opened doors for future generations.

✏️ March 30, 1858 - H***n L. Lipman patented the first pencil with an attached eraser. Simple, yet revolutionary, this tiny invention changed how we learn, create, and take notes to this day.
