As I think about how far I've come as a business owner, I recognize that the tools used by me as a business owner are also applicable to my personal life. I budget as a business owner, I track expenses and income as a business owner, and I find satisfaction at the end of the month when I have money left in my bank account. I had basic financial skills before I started my business, but my business coach, Greg Hess of Coach Hess LLC, helped me sharpen those skills so much! And now I am more equipped to plan for my not-so-distant retirement!
The foregoing was a long way of asking the question: Who would be interested in a series of free classes teaching basic financial skills? Basic information like the definition of fixed & variable expenses, how a credit score and/or FICO score affect your access to credit and the cost of your credit, why saving is important, even if you start out very small, etc. I want to help everyday folks acquire skills to make their lives better today, and into the future.
I expect the classes would be held in the community room of a local public library in Houston if there is any interest. I am in the process of enlisting a financial professional to present the classes, but would like to gauge interest. Please feel free to share with friends and on neighborhood forums.
Have a fabulous weekend!
