“I’ve Never Heard A Financial Guy Talk Like This!”

That comment was typical of what I’m used to hearing when I take Recalibrate Today Live on the road.

Recently, we were in North Carolina where I had the incredible privilege of being invited to also preach the sermon on Sunday morning before presenting two formal Recalibrate Live workshops and a couple of informal Q&A sessions. During one of the latter events I had a former Boeing engineer tell me, “You know, I get letters from Dobson and Moody and several other ministries all asking me for money. But nobody is teaching me how to make money! If I knew how to grow my nest egg I’d be in a position to give them more, but no one is teaching us how to do that!”

“Ah”, I said. “That is precisely why we created Recalibrate Today and why I am here. I want to take my 30 years of experience and help people improve their financial literacy and grow their money, so that they can do more for the cause of Christ!”

When I got done teaching the group how they can invest in the stock-market – but with a guaranteed income safety net, how they can take advantage of alternative investments that have no stock market risk at all, but are paying 9% right now, and how they can create a retirement plan that will allow them to invest as much as they choose and never pay any income tax even when they pull money out , that same retired engineer said, “And here I thought all you were going to do was say the same old stuff about not using our credit cards and maybe invest in some mutual funds.Wow, was I wrong. This is really great information!”

What the audience really liked was my introduction. I told them, “I’m sure you have heard from financial advisors who sell mutual funds. Well, I’ve certainly done that, but I have also actually built them – from scratch. And I’m sure you’ve heard from financial advisors who have talked to a lot of investors. Well, I’ve done that – in seminars, and one on one, but I’ve also done that on CNNfn, Bloomberg TV and hundreds of radio programs. And I didn’t stop with teaching just the public, I’ve also trained hundreds of financial advisors, too. And you know what is the best part? I have nothing to sell you today – nope! I don’t make any money whether you do anything with the information I give you, or not.So, let’s just  have some intellectual fun.”

After that, everyone relaxed and we had a great time of learning and sharing. I even used a “financial football’ theme to simplify the learning process and have even more fun. And today that audience is feeling a lot better about their financial future – regardless of what the investment world throws at them.
