Contenders Wanted
Welcome to Contenders Wanted where we’re working relentlessly to solve our money problems without sacrificing what’s most important in life. We know money won’t solve our problems, but we don't want money to be THE problem. Cause for us it’s faith, family, and finances, in that order. So, how do we adopt the thoughts and behaviors that enable us to wisely take advantage of the opportunities before us, all while sifting out financial mis-information and not losing sight of our true priorities? My name is Rob Cook. I’m a husband, father, CPA, CFP, and a former financial advisor. Come with me as I search for the answer and share what I learn along the way. And if you’re a fellow Contender, then join us where Contenders are always Wanted.
