I hope you haven&#8217;t felt neglected while I&#8217;ve been teaching our first ever, online workshop series <span class=\"il\">Financial<\/span> Fitness Online Bootcamp. I&#8217;ve got another round of Bootcamp and new weekly tips, with a side of my usual of quirkiness, coming at ya in 2016!<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>In the meantime, for your <span class=\"il\">financial<\/span> fitness motivation, I recommend seeing the movie The Big Short. It&#8217;s the movie about the few people who predicted the global <span class=\"il\">financial<\/span> collapse of 2007\/2008. It comes out <span class=\"aBn\" tabindex=\"0\" data-term=\"goog_826134956\"><span class=\"aQJ\">tomorrow<\/span><\/span> nationwide and stars Brad Pitt, Ryan Gosling, Steve Carell, and Christian Bale. As if that cast is not reason enough to catch the flick, let me just tell you that it is a must-see, epic film!<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>You&#8217;ll understand why we all lived through the greatest economic disaster since the Great Depression. The movie does an incredible job explaining key concepts so there&#8217;s no need to feel intimidated that you won&#8217;t get it. The movie did to me what any great movie does &#8211; it entertained me, informed me, made me laugh, made me angry, and nearly made me cry.<\/p>\n<p>The movie made it obvious that <span class=\"il\">financial<\/span> fitness is a non-negotiable skill that we all must have. While I place minimal responsibility on average Americans for their role in the collapse, I am convinced that things would have turned out much differently if we were all <span class=\"il\">financially<\/span> <span class=\"il\">fit<\/span>. If Americans knew how to manage their money and were awake to the forces that prey upon them, many would not have blindly participated in a scheme designed to &#8220;help&#8221; them live the American dream.<\/p>\n<p>I left feeling hopeful as I realized that the <span class=\"il\">Financially<\/span> <span class=\"il\">Fit<\/span> Foundation is part of the solution. Through it, I get to teach the very information that will protect people when this happens again. Together, we may even be able to avoid repeating history.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Happy holidays! I promise, I haven&#8217;t abandoned you!
