Curtis May loves numbers, perhaps as much as he loves scoring. Fortunately, ‘going pro’ on the latter quickly dissipated from his goals, because otherwise, we will not have seen Curtis become the wealth management expert that he is today. Not shying away, Curtis continues to make multiple points, financial this time, evident in his FOUR objectives of Financial Planning, FIVE areas of maximum efficiency, and the FOUR things banks want from you. He just loves racking up those numbers. Curtis believes in the fundamentals and he’s come up with FIVE major principles in creating your financial plan. It all comes down to how the value is created and how you influence that value. These are financial foundations that everyone should learn. Luckily, we have ‘the Contrarian’ himself educating us on this and setting you up in financial planning on your way to financial freedom.
