The Gallup-HOPE Index: Inspiring People to Aspire Again

One of the attendees at the Gallup-HOPE Index Forum sent us a moving email about his thoughts about the event. His inspiration speaks volumes for what we are generating in the marketplace. We are inspiring people to aspire again (or maybe for the first time) and that’s awesome! 

Her comments are below:

I wanted to thank you for responding to my email and encouraging me to register. The Gallup-Hope Index Forum was motivating.  It ignited a fire within.  I left the forum ready to take on the world.  Or shall I say, at least my small portion of the world.  (smile) 

I have worked in the finance arena for over 20 years and often times wondered why, especially, when my childhood dream was to become a doctor. The forum provided a defining moment.  I realized that the training, experiences, and relationships over the past twenty years were the foundation needed for a bigger cause.  Over the years, I have helped families design and implement budgets, start 529s, open IRAs, obtain loans, and make various other services.  All the while, ensuring they understood the importance of making financially sound decisions. 

I will use the forum as a catapult to begin educating men, women, young adults, families, and any other individuals that can benefit from my knowledge.  I am especially looking forward to helping encourage future entrepreneurs and provide resources that will help make their dream a reality. 

Please give my thanks to Gallup, Operation Hope and all the sponsors that made this event a success.
