UFOs - Unidentified Financial Obstructions

We've all been there... wondering how we are going to pay our next bill, stressing over debt we can't seem to get out of, or facing financial challenges due to unforseen emergencies like a loss of a job, medical expenses due to an illness or injury, unexpected vehicle repairs or home repairs, etc. The list seems to be never-ending. But there are some things that we can learn that will help us with our money woes.

At our next meeting, we will be hearing from Nicole Pavlica, who will share with us some key financial tools such as creating a budget, tackling debt, planning for the future, etc. Nicole has a Finance degree from the University of South Florida and has worked as a Junior Treasury Analyst, a Fixed Assets Analyst and an Accounts Receivable Specialist. She has graduated from Dave Ramsey's Financial Peace University twice, once as a single college student and a second time along with her husband. In June of 2009, she attended Dave Ramsey's Financial Counselor's Training, which is a 5 day, intensive program in which she was trained by Dave's team to counsel people on their budgets, getting out of debt and making the best decisions about investing and insurance. She is currently working as the Family Readiness Support Assistant for the 16th Cavalry Regiment at Fort Knox and is in the 10th week of teaching her first Financial Peace University to the Families of the Regiment. She and her husband are also debt free, so I know that we will be able to learn lots of valuable lessons from her.

We will also hear of what Financial Peace University is all about and learn of some websites available containing valuable financial tools as well as hearing about some highly recommended books that will point you in the right direction to being debt-free and financially secure.

With a topic like this one, you won't want to miss it! And as an added bonus, we have some fabulous door prizes to give away that were donated to us by renowned financial expert, Dave Ramsey, including some autographed copies of his book. So come join us for some Finance 101 on Monday, October 26th from 9:00am - 11:00am in the Family Life Center of First Christian Church. Breakfast is being provided to us by the Wind care group. Hope to see you there!
