Just like the majority of you, family is where it matters most. For me, it all started when I was young. Like many, my parents played a large role in who I am today. I was fortunate enough to have a family that tried to teach me about the world of finances. This is where I feel that the public school systems tend to fail our society; rather than make mistakes with Money and try to learn from the mistakes, I was able to avoid them. I was and still am enamored with finances and economics. Maybe it is a Midwest type of thing, as I am passionate about helping others succeed with their own finances. I hope you find my articles and videos as helpful as my clients have.
