Financial Lessons from Game of Thrones

Although the era of HBO’s record-breaking TV series, Game of Thrones, is over and our watch has, quite literally, ended, there are a number of valuable lessons – both personal and financial – that we can take with us for years to come. Whether you’re of House Stark or remained loyal to Queen Daenerys, here are a few simple yet powerful financial lessons that we can learn from the show. And consider yourself warned… series spoilers and wicked puns are coming.

Money in Movies

Whether watching at a theater or from the comfort of your own home, movies have a unique way of bringing us together in support of (or defense against) a certain character or outcome. Today, we invite you to join us as we explore a list of movies where we believe money plays a role. What movies have you seen where money was a character? Did money play an obvious role? Or was it hidden in the relationships and discussions throughout the movie? Take a look at our list and let us know what you think!

Referrals are the Greatest Compliment

Clients and allied professionals have often told us that they hesitate to make a referral because they don’t know if friends, relatives, or coworkers meet our minimums or would otherwise be a good fit. Our reply is that we are Financial Planning Evangelists^® and would like to see everyone who is seeking help find a competent, ethical financial planner. Thus, we’re happy to talk to ANYONE who is referred to us and if, for whatever reason, we find that we’re not a good fit, we will work to match them up with an experienced financial planner who is.

If you know someone who may be interested in talking with us, please ask them to contact Lauren Mireles or send Lauren the individual’s name and contact information so we may connect with them to set-up an initial meeting. We thank you for the continued trust you show in us by referring your friends, family, and colleagues so that we can help them to harness their financial resources to pursue exquisite, fulfilling lives.
