“You’re like the Bill Nye The Science Guy of MONEY!”
When one of my clients first said this to me about 5 years ago, I couldn’t help but laugh. Like most millennials, I had seen Bill Nye on TV or had him shown to us by cool substitute teachers in Elementary School when they wheeled in a TV and VCR.
Then I started thinking about it even more. Bill’s WHOLE PURPOSE was to take complicated topics and challenging concepts —— and make them easier to understand and more ENTERTAINING to learn. The more I thought about it, the more I realized that this was a PURPOSE he and I shared.
That’s EXACTLY what I do with Personal Finance Education and working with Americans to achieve Financial Independence. Topics such as paying down debt, saving and wealth building, insurance and protection, and cash flow optimization – they can all be dreary, boring, and easy to skip over.
These topics also appear challenging at first, but I make them easy to understand, more entertaining to get educated, and allow YOU to apply what you learn to improve YOUR finances and life!!
So let’s just say: I have FULLY EMBRACED IT!!! But I’m letting my French Bulldog (@TheFinanceFrenchie) be the one who wears bow ties, sorry Bill. I’m sticking to Money-Print Suit-Jackets.
Love ya @billnye , and I’ll be working to have a legacy in Personal Finance 💰 as you have in teaching Science 🔬
