If you are a Foster Parent or Foster Child and would like help getting your financial house in order I will give you personal debt management and investment coaching at a deeply discounted rate. You must show proof that you are either a Foster Parent, a Foster Child, or a child who recently aged out of the system. Please see the Money Site for financial links, including my contact information. |

To
laugh often and much;
to win the respect of intelligent people
and the affection of children;
to earn the appreciation of honest critics
and endure the betrayal of false friends;
to appreciate beauty,
to find the best in others;
to leave the world a bit better,
whether by a healthy child, a garden patch
or a redeemed social condition;
to know even one life has breathed
easier because you have lived.
This is to have succeeded.
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
