History
In
1992 Eagle Scout and U.S. Marine Kris Freeberg completed his university
education in business administration, economics, finance, and
accounting. From the Boy Scouts he learned compassion; from the
Marines, discipline. His main reason for studying these subjects was to
simply learn how to manage his own money. But alas, personal financial
management was not covered in any of the available courses.
Consequently,
he launched into a period of exhaustive independent study of personal
financial management. From this study he gained an overview of the
issues. But he found that almost all of the materials he studied were
general and narrative, not specific and quantitative. In other words,
they weren't "businesslike." So he combined his formal business
education and his informal personal finance education to create a
businesslike way to deal with personal finance, and in 1996 Making End$ Meet
was born.
Today,
having helped hundreds of households and businesses plan and accomplish
their goals, Making End$ Meet offers the state of the art in both long
term planning and day to day budgeting assistance to those who need it
the most. Please explore the web site, and thanks for dropping by!
