"It’s crazy and dangerous time we live in…I’m glad we have firearm…"
I was talking to my neighbors, who live on the same street... most are in their 60s and up….
To my surprise, I was the only one who didn’t have a firearm on my street!
Whaaaat?!
While I never thought about the need to have a handgun for self-defense, this conversation got me thinking… and I decided to buy a handgun.
Naturally, I went to the gun store and was looking for a handgun that… looks pretty – colorful, light, and feminine??).
Then I asked the gun store owner to confirm that my choice of the gun was the right one for me…
"Have you ever used a handgun?", he asked me with a clear? concern in his voice….
"Never," I replied.
"Then it might be a good idea for you NOT to buy ANY gun today but instead to attend an introductory handgun training, try to use different gun models, and THEN come back and buy a handgun."
This was a common sense suggestion and I promptly made an appointment for the introductory handgun course at the local shooting range.
And it occurred to me that many people make a very similar mistake with their money!
??They want to have more money quickly, so they jump into investing without any training or hire a financial adviser who, more often than not, sells financial instruments that pay the adviser the highest commissions.
I recently talked to a woman in her late 50s, who shared with me how she lost hundreds of thousands investing with a financial adviser she trusted…
"I don’t know who to trust anymore", she said.
?"YOURSELF", I replied, then added:
"But you’ve got to be informed, so that you can make better financial decisions."
During another complimentary money strategy session, a single woman in her 60s, a former nurse practitioner, shared with me how she’s trying to build her relationship coaching business for 7 years, invested a LOT of money with several prominent business coaches yet still has no clients and no income from this? business…

"Are you successful with your own relationship?" I asked…
"No… Have been in a toxic relationship for years… still trying to get out of it", she replied.
"What were you helping people with when you worked as a nurse?" I asked.
"With mental and emotional health… And I loved it", she said.
"Then why in a world are you spending time, money and effort trying to build a relationship coaching business that you don’t have credentials and experience for?
You can leverage your experience and credentials as a nurse and help people attain mental and emotional health... THAT will help with their relationships!"
"You’re scattered with your efforts, energy and resources and wasting your time," I added with the words coming from my heart....
Common sense, right?
Apparently, it’s not that common…??
