One Financial Advisor Who Had Enough
(NewDesignWorld Press ReleasCalifornia, April 27th -- Alfonso Alcala experienced firsthand the pain caused by financial hardship. He came from a blue-collar family that struggled during rough economic times throughout his childhood. The basic needs of life were hard to come by. So when Alfonso went to college he wanted to change his situation, and the financial situation of other families.
He entered the corporate world and became a Financial Advisor. Unlike most financial advisors who were going after wealthy clients, Alfonso worked with lower income families so that they too can improve their financial situation. The only problem – most of the families scraped by with low pay, high family expenses leaving them with nothing to invest. Many of the investment meetings ended with Alfonso helping them figure out how to make ends meet by creating a budget, talking for hours about their finances to help them dig out of the financial hole they found themselves in. However, giving free money-saving-advice was not what the financial institution he worked for wanted him to do and he soon realized that the emphasis of his career was on sales. He could not, in good conscience, sell to these struggling families financial products they could not afford which led Alfonso to decide to leave his career as a Financial Advisor. He wanted to give back to the community and refocus his efforts in a way that would engage regular Americans and help them, just as he had helped many of the families he advised.
Alfonso and a business colleague started www.SaveMoney.com. Unlike other sites that emphasize investing, the SaveMoney site focuses its attention more on the day-to-day financial struggles that families face. The vision is to help families get a hold of their financial situations so they are in a better position to start investing in their future. It is a perfect site to help families stretch their dollars, inform them of possible savings, and capture the spirit of people helping other people all across the United States by sharing their experiences.
Now, everyday people can find ideas for stretching their budget, minimizing their expenses and saving for the future. Just as Alfonso engaged families about their finances, and hope for their financial future, so too does SaveMoney.com speak to those enduring hard economic times.
