The Lopez family graduated from our Family Financial Transformations™ program recently. They are a family of four with both parents working full time, but when they started our program they were still living paycheck to paycheck. They also were continuing to accumulate debt. Once they began our program they started tracking spending and realized how many spending leaks they had on unnecessary item.

Within the first six month of starting our program they built a savings from $0 to $900! The Lopez Family has also paid off one credit card and made it to the point of being able to pay all their bills on time. Due to their tight budgeting and debt paid off, they continued to add to savings. When they paid off their vehicle during the ninth month of our program they began to put that payment amount into savings. By the time they graduated from our program, they had built up almost $4000 in savings!
