Mark Phillips
Financial Services Professional & Financial Literacy Advocate

Personal Notes
As an American who lived and worked for 19 years in Europe if there is one thing I learned, budgeting and money management is a universal challenge facing both young and old. I also learned that regardless of your age, sociodemographic or financial status, it is never too late to come up with a plan to help you on your path to financial freedom. As a Certified Financial Education Instructor, I’ve seen and personally experienced pretty much everything when it comes to financial obstacles. Regardless of how impossible your situation may seem, I truly believe there is hope for everyone.
