What People Are Saying

Melissa Gonzalez

Re-entry Coordinator / Legislative Advocacy Specialist

"Joe's financial advice is so informative. I've learned everything from the difference between various types of IRA accounts and how to utilize credit cards for more than just purchasing items, to strategies around dividing your money into 3 different "buckets" (investing, saving and disposable) and how to identify stocks worth investing in.  His guidance has been invaluable for a newbie like me.  I highly recommend his guidance if you’re ready to make your money work for you."
