Please, no lettering, words or common items in logo.  I am looking for a creative looking symbol like all the social media sites have, including DesignCrowd.

These designs are looking good.  It will be hard choice.  The designs I select as the winners will need to have a symbol that represents both the financial resources and well-being.  I have a formula I created for my practice: [REAL Wealth] = [Well-being] + [Financial Resources].



The only simple symbol I could think of for the well-being part of the equation is the pyramid.  The pyramid represents the sense of harmony and unity within ourselves and the environment to which we aspire.  It also represents the Maslow's hierarchy of needs. However, you guys are the designers so if you can think of something else that would be great too.



May the best design win,
Ruth
