All I can say is WOW!
I came across Choosefi in a financial Facebook group where a member of the group recommended the "ChooseFi movement" and all I can say is wow! I have been hooked on the podcasts and Choosefi Facebook group ever since. In the short month that I have been listening, I have made some really great changes to my financial picture as well as the way I look at my financial future. I owe these changes all to Brad and Jeff of Choosefi. I truly wish I had these mind blowing Choosefi podcasts 10 years ago, but better late than never. I am so glad I found these guys. They are a staple in my life now and I am spreading the word. GREAT JOB GUYS I AM A HUGE FAN!
