Who here has issues with financial management?

 

Many of us ADDults have asked about finding a way to help ourselves with our impulsive money issues-  Lucky for us some creative attorney got wacked in the head- And Ron swears to me that he had nothing to do with it!

 

All kidding aside, some time ago, Alice, a Naperville attorney, suffered a brain injury.  This injury left her with an underfuctioning prefrontal cortex (i.e. executive functions) and after many attempts they found that giving her stimulant medication helped her the most-  Now all that was left was to re-train herself in behaviors that were at one time second nature for her.

 

She joined Weight Watchers to help her with her with managing her diet and in being a bright creative person, saw how using this model might also be able to help her with her issues with spending, living on a budget, and stick-tu-itiveness of paying her bills and balancing and recording her expenses.

 

Just a couple of months ago she launched Wealth Watchers International.  Like Weight Watchers, for a weekly fee ($12/meeting or $110 for 12 ) you can get weekly support to help with personal finances.

 

I have no doubt that this program will go national faster than you can say "i-Tunes and Podcast" three times fast.  To me, this is the greatest thing since Yeager Bombs, Golden Tee Video Golf, and the Miracle Bra.

 

But I am not alone in this feeling as the local chairman of the Chicago Federal Reserve told Alice at a recent meeting (she is a very well connected attorney!) that not only did he want the Federal Reserve to evaluate endorsing her program, but he felt this program was so novel and needed that it was worthy of the front page on the Wall Street Journal.  He may be right.

 

Come join us and glow in the feeling that we were there when this program first started...  And I think Alice is as excited about speaking to our group as we are about having her.

The two cornerstones of Wealth Watchers are weekly meetings and daily journaling. Anyone can become better with money if they care about the little things. Group support and the sharing of ideas definitely helps people achieve their goals. Journaling is key to providing a daily reality check on where your money goes. If you think that materialism is overrated and are ready to live with an attitude that less really is more, then Wealth Watchers is for you. Wealth Watchers will help you establish a lifestyle of living smart and knowing exactly where your money goes.

Advance reservations are not required. We look forward to seeing you there!
