The Mission

Welcome to SmartMoneyMoves. If you have made it here, we are honored you want to learn about finance from us Gen-Zers as we attempt to help others navigate financial challenges and take control of their lives. Movemaking is a journey of learning and mutual discovery as we embrace the opportunity for growth. A wise man named Captain Jack Sparrow once said, “It’s not the destination so much as the journey.” By choosing to become a Movemaker, you commit to this path and embrace the four foundational pillars on which we base our financial understanding.

Start at the Foundation

Imagine constructing a towering edifice, one that reaches for the heavens, its grandeur undeniable. Yet, such a marvel cannot stand without a steadfast base. The essence of any formidable structure lies in its foundation, unyielding and true. As we embark on this journey together, envision the creation of a robust financial fortress, anchored by four fundamental pillars:

First, let us "Study Outward," casting our gaze beyond the immediate horizon to gather knowledge and insight. Next, we "Focus Inward," reflecting on our actions and intentions, for they shape our path. We always "Act Intentionally," knowing actions matter and choices echo into the future. Lastly, we embrace the virtues of "Wisdom and Patience," for they are the quiet architects of success.

These four pillars form the bedrock of our Movemaking endeavor. While you may choose different cornerstones for your own life, we will champion these as indispensable, especially for the young and ambitious, eager to seize the world with unbridled vigor.
