On today's webinar where we talked about the importance of improving our human capital. With 41% of US households struggling with inflation, especially food and gas prices, it's an issue we can't ignore. Instead of hoping for a 25-40% drop in home prices or a return to 3% interest rates, we should focus on something within our control: increasing our income. By investing in our skills and capabilities, we can better combat inflationary pressures. Simple things like writing more often, taking a few classes, volunteering, and tackling larger problems can help. Find ways to increase your earning potential. What has worked in the last 5 years may not work in the next 5. Realtors know this better than anyone, especially now. Things can change quickly.

It's a great day for some financial literacy! 🤑 I get to spend my afternoon hosting some outreach at a local middle school. Today's topic: Budgets! I created the curriculum for this hour long class with resources from Consumer.gov and from NCCareers.org. This session is consistently the one in which my teens are most engaged, and it's no wonder why. Learning to manage your money is not only important, but FUN! 😊 #CMLibrary #FinancialLiteracy #Libraries #Outreach

Empowering Our Community, One Financial Decision at a Time Every Friday, I have the privilege of volunteering at our local library, offering financial advice to those who seek it. It’s a small commitment with a profound impact, and each session reminds me of the power of knowledge and community. In a world where financial literacy is often overlooked, these sessions are a beacon of hope. They provide a safe space for individuals to ask questions, learn, and take control of their financial futures. Whether it’s helping someone understand the basics of budgeting, guiding them through the complexities of investments, or simply offering a listening ear, each interaction is a step towards empowerment. The library, a symbol of learning and growth, is the perfect backdrop for these sessions. It’s a place where people come to expand their horizons, and financial literacy is a crucial part of that journey. By volunteering my time, I hope to contribute to a more financially savvy community, where everyone has the tools they need to make informed decisions. But it’s not just about the advice. It’s about the connections we make, the stories we share, and the trust we build. It’s about showing that financial well-being is within everyone’s reach, regardless of their starting point. So, if you find yourself at Blackfen library on a Friday, stop by and say hello. Let’s embark on this journey together, one financial decision at a time. #financialplanning #library #community #volenteering #localcommunity #financialwellbeing #retirementplanning #investmentplanning #taxplanning #protection

💡 **Financial Stability Programs: More Than Just Financial Education** 💡 Many nonprofits focus on immediate needs—housing, food, healthcare. But without financial stability, these solutions are just temporary fixes. 🌟 Imagine if you could provide the *tools and guidance* to help people break the cycle of financial insecurity for good. That’s what Financial Stability Programs do. They help individuals move from *just getting by* to *getting ahead*. 💪 ### Here’s what makes these programs powerful: 📉 **Reduce Debt** – Equip people to tackle their debt and avoid predatory lending. 💰 **Build Savings** – Help families create a financial cushion for emergencies. 🏡 **Achieve Milestones** – Guide participants toward long-term goals like homeownership and education. 📈 **Create Lasting Change** – Empower individuals to change their financial futures—and those of the next generation. Want to learn more about how your nonprofit can build a Financial Stability Program? Let’s connect! 🤝
