Videos that Educate: Finance Edition

While you’re busy setting resolutions for your health, it might be a good time to think about your financial wellness too…January is recognized as Financial Wellness Month. It’s an opportunity for individuals to take stock of their financial situation and make any necessary changes to improve it in the upcoming year.

This can include:

1. Reducing debt
2. Creating a budget
3. Finding ways to increase income
4. Setting financial goals for the year

It can also involve seeking out resources to better understand financial concepts and strategies. That’s why we’re taking the time to spotlight 4 clients that offer financial services to residents in the Philadelphia area. Finance can be a confusing topic but one thing all of these groups have in common is that they strive to make it easier to understand finance as a whole.

The first financial expert that we would like to highlight is Gene Marks!

Additionally, Gene is an author, columnist, keynote speaker, and small business expert. He talks and writes about the financial, economic, and technological issues that affect business leaders today. Through his keynotes and breakout sessions, Gene helps business owners, executives, and managers understand the political, economic, and technological trends that will affect their companies and—most importantly—the ACTIONS they need to take to continue to grow and profit.
