The Journey to Financial Wellness

Ellis Dean: What is meant by financial wellness?

Gus Tucker: First of all, it’s personal and internal. Financial wellness is having confidence in your ability to meet all the financial and non-financial needs, wants, and desires in your life. It’s having confidence. Part of this wellness is mental and emotional. It’s about how you think. It’s about meeting all your family, financial and personal responsibilities, being able to give to others, being able to leave a legacy, and being financially well.

Gus Tucker: YouTube Video: Located at the base of your brain, this is what your brain uses as a filter for all the encounters or data in your life. As a result, it is what you focus on in your life. It brings those things to the forefront. It is intertwined with belief and the stronger your belief is in something, the more it manifests in life. 

Ellis Dean: What are the obstacles to financial stability?

Gus Tucker: The key obstacle to your financial stability is uncertainty. Cash or income uncertainty, then it’s uncertainty in the area of your health, and finally uncertainty in the area of your support system where you’ve built your associations. So those are the biggest obstacles.
