• 50- Plus Coaching Session: This is especially for those who are age 50 plus and at the “Stay the Course” or “Building Wealth” place in life. In addition to addressing those issues listed above, this life review is specifically designed to address issues like executing your retirement plan, what your spouse needs to know about the finances, leaving a legacy, etc.

If you took a financial snapshot of a typical American family today, it would not be pretty. Many families are in a financial struggle to keep it all together; many are failing:

♦ According to the Wall Street Journal, 70% of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck
♦ Over half (55%) say that they always or sometimes worry about their money
♦ In the new millennium, the personal savings rate fell to -2.2% — the lowest in 60 years
♦ In 2005 there were 2,078,415 bankruptcies – many were middle class
♦ The average credit card debt per US card-holding households in 2005 was $9,312
♦ The average household has $84,454 in personal debt;
♦ Over 62% of Americans retire on annual incomes below $10,000
♦ Conflict over money is still the leading cause of divorce today

This workshop will help folks move towards achieving financial peace now. Chris will discuss in a kind, compassionate and with wit and humor where American families are financially and how money works. In addition, he will outline four steps people can take now to begin their journey towards freedom from financial burdens. Important areas like savings, cash flow planning and debt reduction will be covered. A question and answer period will follow.

Chris says, “People walk away from my speaking engagements motivated to make the right financial decisions. They leave with clarity of purpose, encouragement and wisdom to move in the right direction.”
