The main reason that I became a financial planner was to help people to deal with their money. After meeting many clients, I have realized & am amazed at how little most people know about looking after their money. Also, most are too caught up in their busy schedules that they can little to no plans in regards to their finances. This is the biggest thing that got me into this career; I wanted to learn more about how to manage my own money. This required me taking a number of courses which soon put me on the path to becoming a financial planner. It was also pretty obvious that a lot of people desperately needed help which is something that I really wanted to do.
