Better Budget, Better Life

Hey FAM! On this week’s episode of The Ryan Leckey Show we’re talking M-O-N-E-Y, money! I got to chill with Jill Valentini, one of my favorite financial WHIZ’s! She gives us the inside scoop on how Fidelity bank can help you save the money you need to succeed in life. It doesn’t matter if you’re doing fine financially or bankrupt, she has great advice that can really help you out! So, you better put your listening ears on because on this week’s podcast your time really is money!

Jill and I got to gab about all things banking, and, boy, does she have some pretty amazing insights! The first thing she wants everyone to know: banking isn’t boring and definitely not scary. Bankers are eager to help you, no matter what type of financial situation you are in. Some people tend to avoid banks, you know the type, the kind who are really intimidated by banks and finances. Problem is: they don’t realize that banks are designed to support you, even during your roughest financial times. Jill knows this better than most, and it’s not just because she is the Retail Regional Sales Manager of the Dunmore branch of Fidelity.

Jill has been through some messy money situations herself, and she spilled ALL the tea to me. Before she was a banker, she worked as an accountant for UPS. While she enjoyed her job with UPS very much, she left the job to open a fitness center with her then-husband. But then, after their divorce, she was left without a job, and without any money. Her debt had piled up, and she felt as if she was at the point of no return. It took a lot of courage, but she knew she had to get her life back on track. She walked into her local Fidelity Bank and never looked back.

Jill understands how fragile anyone feels when declaring bankruptcy and, because of her own personal experience, she knows exactly how to help. She’s prepared to help you get your life and your financial stability back, just like she did for herself. If you have a mountain of debt weighing you down, Fidelity Bank can be your first step to success. And as you take one step at a time, Fidelity will be there to guide you until that mountain of money troubles is just a hill and then nothing at all.

Even if you aren’t in debt and just want to feel financially secure, Fidelity can certainly help with that, too! Believe me, Fidelity was a MAJOR component in the success of my very own business, Ryan Leckey Media. They supported me during my start-up and continue to give me the best financial care one year later! I have known Jill for 17 years and during that time, she has never let me down, as a friend or as a banker!

Jill gave me some awesome advice that will help anyone thinking about budgeting their money: That advice: In the end, only you can help yourself. You have to be the one to hold yourself accountable and do what’s right for your life. When you’re smart with your finances, you don’t have to rely on anyone else, just yourself! And THAT type of independence is the key to your financial success.

This banking wizard certainly schooled me in this podcast! Her comeback story was truly inspiring, and I can’t wait for all of you to hear how she bettered her life with the help of Fidelity! Everyone at every branch of Fidelity works super hard to ensure that their community is satisfied with their care! When you bank with Fidelity, you can be confident that you will not fail! Jill’s got your back, just like she had mine! If you have ever found yourself in a sticky financial situation, then this podcast is definitely the one for you!
