CUtFI - Incredible Women, Connections, and Late Starters


Dear (Late) Starter,

We hope that you are all having a great summer! We've had some amazing women on the show recently (plus the incredible Allen Mueller of 7 Saturdays Financial) and we wanted to share some photos from the recent Women of FI event that Jackie attended. If a weekend retreat of connection, inspiration, and intimate conversations with FI friends is something that speaks to you, consider signing up for an upcoming event (including co-ed!).

Remember, it's never too late to start, its better late than never, and it's always the right time to catch up to FI!

Coming up!

As usual we've got some great guests coming up in the month of July. We're talking with Scott & Dan who specialize in 403(b)s and 457(b)s. If you're a K-12 teacher, you won't want to miss it.

But what if you're not? Well, whether you're a recent late starter or a seasoned investor, we think that a certain Chartered Financial Analyst® (CFA®) coming to the show will be able to drop some gems for us.

This month we want you to get wiser on retirement plans, build a wealth of common sense, and get started on crushing your financial life goals. Stay tuned!
