Money Management Podcast Learn about a variety of financial topics and money management tips that can help you and those you care about.

Conflicts over money are one of the primary causes of marital discord and divorce.  Financial burdens can also affect single parents, those who live alone, and those who are primary caretakers of elderly parents.

Overspending and compulsive use of credit are common coping patterns for individuals and families distressed by other life issues.  First Sun EAP financial counselors are available to help you assess your financial needs.  Sometimes reorganizing budgets and priorities can resolve the problems at hand.  If necessary, a referral to debt management or bankruptcy services can be arranged so you can get a handle on overwhelming debt.

We can help you to understand your credit score, figure out how to manage money when you marry or divorce, how to handle tax concerns and anything in between.  We are knowledgeable about lending practices and can help you understand how to watch out for predatory lenders (cash advance and title loan companies).  

For those who want to create a savings plan for a special vacation or for college expenses, or plan for retirement, we can help with that.  All of our consultants are Certified Financial Planners and want to help you make your money work for you.

If financial concerns are affecting your personal and family relationships, we have counselors who can help with that too.  One way or another, we can help you turn things around.  Financial concerns can be stressful to deal with and understanding what to do can be hard.  Let us help ease your burden.
