Do you work for your money or does your money work for you?
I help you learn how to achieve financial freedom by managing and investing your money. Financial freedom means not having to worry about that next check. Freedom to do all of those things you have only dreamed of.
Manage your money
Invest in your future
Achieve your dreams
Most of us never learned how to manage our money
Not knowing how to manage our money is costing us both dollars and peace of mind.
Your finances keep you up at night
You keep earning more but have nothing to show for it
Your finances are hurting your family
You have paid ‘experts’ for ‘help’ but just made them rich
You need help investing but don’t know where to start
You want to retire but don’t know if you ever will be able to.
Meet Dr Jay Zigmont, CFP®
I grew up broke. I was never taught how to manage money. I earned my first million by the time I was 21 and spent it before I was 25.
It wasn’t until much later that I learned how to manage and invest my money. I know you can learn how to manage and invest also.
I have been a coach in all areas of life and business for over a decade. I have a PhD in Adult Learning from the University of Connecticut and I am a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™.
The bottom line is I have the experience and training to help you learn how to manage their money and achieve financial freedom.
I help you learn how YOU can manage all areas of your finances.
Instead of ‘doing it for you’, together we tackle your finances in the following areas:
- Budgeting and Cash Flow
- Debt Management
- Setting and Achieving Goals
- College Planning (and Student Loans)
- Career Choices and Their Impact
- Side-Gigs and Small Businesses
- Saving and Investing
- Retirement
- Risk Management and Insurance
- Tax Planning
- Estate Planning
- Caring for Elderly Parents
