responds with helpful guidance on mortgages, savings options, retirement
planning, car buying/financing, teens and money, keeping debt under
control, and more.

something different than most financial talk shows, like how to educate
your teens to start saving, how to keep a handle on debt during the
holidays and in-depth information on how legislative issues in Washington,
DC can affect all of us.

media in Washington, DC allows him access to members of congress, regulatory
officials, and other financial journalists that have an insight and
edge on complex legislative issues.
Home & Family Finance ™ is presented
by Americas credit unions. With a presence in virtually every
community, credit unions consider financial education an important part
of their mission. Surveys have consistently shown that Americans have
a loyalty and affinity for credit unions not found at other financial
institutions. Today more than 88 million Americans belong to a credit
union. These 88 million consumers are a natural audience for Home & Family Finance ™. But the show is aimed at providing consumers from all
walks of life with wide-ranging, objective information and advice on
personal finance matters.
