Jill has seen the affects of debt first hand. She struggled with credit card debt as a young adult. Later, when she worked as a mortgage broker, she saw clients who were seriously in debt or had little or no savings. Some were refinancing their homes to use the equity to pay off consumer debt. They would even come back a second time to get out of more debt. This wasn't just an issue of poverty or unemployment. People with good salaries were struggling with overspending and accumulated debts.
Jill has come to believe that financial education is the key for everyone. Her book will start you off in the right direction and teach you how to build good financial habits, including: spending wisely, saving regularly, and becoming financially independent. When you become financially independent, you control your finances; they do not control you. Jill also shares with you all that she has learned during her career in the financial world.
