(MUSIC) GOOD MORNING EVERYBODY.
WE'RE HAVING A GREAT TIME HERE.
WELCOME TO THE BALANCING ACT.
I'M JULIE MORAN.
AND I'M OLGA VILLAVERDE.
ALRIGHT ARE YOU READY TO ACHIEVE FINANCIAL INDEPENDENCE?
ALWAYS.
WE ALL ARE, RIGHT?
WE'VE GOT GREAT ADVICE ON HOW YOU CAN PLAN FOR YOUR FINANCIAL FUTURE.
AND SPEAKING OF GREAT.
PLEASE STAY TUNED BECAUSE I HAD A WONDERFUL TIME.
I HEAR.
THE TIME OF MY LIFE, I SHOULD SAY ON LOCATION WITH ONE OF THE STARS OF THE UPCOMING BROADWAY
TOUR OF DIRTY DANCING.
REMEMBER THAT?
LOVE THAT SHOW!
REMEMBER THOSE MOVES?
LOVE THE MOVES!
I DON'T WANT TO TELL YOU TOO MUCH BUT WHAT AN EXPERIENCE.
I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THIS.
I'VE SEEN A SNIPPET.
DON'T GO ANYWHERE.
PLUS, WE HAVE IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR THOSE TRYING TO RECLAIM THEIR LIVES.
WAYS TO GET TO THE ROOT OF ADDICTION.
A LOT ON THE SHOW TODAY.
THE BALANCING ACT START RIGHT NOW.
(MUSIC) DO YOU MANAGE THE FINANCES IN YOUR HOME?
IF SO, YOU ARE NOT ALONE.
MORE AND MORE WOMEN ARE BECOMING THEIR FAMILY'S CHEIF FINANCIAL OFFICER.
THAT'S RIGHT.
CFO.
AND WITH THAT TITLE COMES RESPONSIBILITY.
AND EVEN IF YOU ARE NOT YOUR FAMILY'S CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER, WE ALL NEED TO LEARN MORE
ABOUT MANAGING OUR PERSONAL FINANCES AND ACHIEVING FINANCIAL INDEPENDENCE.
OUR GUESTS THIS MORNING CAN CERTAINLY SHARE HER WEALTH OF KNOWLEDGE.
MEET JULIE SIEMEN OF THE FINANCIAL SERVICES COMPANY, PRIMERICA.
WE WANT TO WELCOME YOU TO THE SHOW.
IT'S SO GREAT TO HAVE YOU HERE.
THANK YOU JULIE.
IT'S A JOY TO BE HERE.
I'LL TELL YOU, I'M EXCITED TO TALK ABOUT WOMEN AND THEIR MONEY.
SUCH AN IMPORTANT TOPIC.
AND LET'S BE HONEST, MANY OF US ARE NOT SAVING ENOUGH AND WE ARE NOT DOING ENOUGH TO SECURE
OUR FAMILY'S FINANCIAL FUTURE.
WHY NOT?
YEAH, YOU KNOW, WE HAVE TO AGGRESSIVELY SEEK OUT THE RESOURCES TO UNDERSTAND WHAT IT IS
WE CAN DO.
AND WHAT WE UNDERSTAND REALLY AS WOMEN IS THAT WE HAVE DEBT IN OUR LIVES AND THAT'S
THE FIRST THING WE NEED TO OVER COME.
WE'RE MAKING MINIMUM MONTHLY PAYMENTS ON OUR CREDIT CARDS AND IT'S REALLY SACRIFICING OUR
FUTURES.
AND AS WE ALL KNOW, WOMEN LIVE LONGER THAN MEN, YET WE ARE SAVING LESS THAN MEN.
NOT OK.
NO, IT ISN'T AND WE DO LIVE LONGER.
I KNOW IT CAN BE DIFFICULT TO THINK ABOUT THAT.
SAD AT TIMES.
RIGHT.
QUITE HONESTLY WE HAVE TO FIGURE THAT OUT TODAY.
IT'S IMPERATIVE THAT WE DO SO FOR OURSELVES AND FOR OUR FUTURES.
WHEN YOU SAY LONG TERM, I THINK RETIREMENT.
THAT COMES TO MIND.
AND RECENTLY I READ AN ARTICLE SAYING THAT PEOPLE SPEND MORE TIME PLANNING THEIR VACATIONS
THAN THEY DO PLANNING THEIR RETIREMENT.
YEAH.
IT'S IRONIC, ISN'T IT?
NOT SURPRISING THOUGH BECAUSE IT'S AN INSTANT GRATIFICATION SOCIET THAT WE LIVE IN.
SO TRUE.
AND SO REALLY WHAT WE NEED TO DO IS FOCUS AS WOMEN BECAUSE WE ARE SO POWERFUL WHEN WE
HAVE THE KNOWLEDGE ON WHAT WE CAN DO TODAY.
MOST OF US PAY THE BILLS IN OUR HOUSEHOLDS.
SO, IF WE KNOW HOW TO APPROPRIATE THOSE FOR OUR FUTURES, WHAT A DIFFERENCE IT CAN MAKE.
SO, TELL ME, AS WOMEN WHAT DO WE NEED TO DO TO ACHIEVE FINANCIAL INDEPENDENCE FOR OURSELVES
AND FOR OUR FAMILY?
YEAH, WELL, THE FIRST THING WE NEED TO DO IS PAY OURSELVES FIRST.
AND I KNOW THAT SOUNDS EASIER SAID THAN DONE.
BUT QUITE HONESTLY, BASIC CONCEPTS CAN TEACH YOU HOW TO DO THAT.
AND THAT IS WHAT WE DO AT PRIMERICA.
OUR REPRESENTATIVES SIT DOWN FACE TO FACE WITH THEIR CLIENTS.
WE DON'T BUSINESS OVER THE TELEPHONE, WE DON'T DO IT OVER THE INTERNET.
INSTEAD WE COME TO YOU IN YOUR HOME.
AND SO YOU ARE ABLE TO REALLY ACCESS ALL THOSE IMPORTANT FINANCIAL DOCUMENTS THAT HELP US
TO PUT TOGETHER THE FINANCIAL NEEDS ANALYSIS.
WHICH IS REALLY A GAME PLAN FOR RETIREMENT.
NOW, I RECENTLY RAN ACROSS A STUDY THAT SAID 70% OF US HOUSEHOLDS WITH CHILDREN UNDER 18
WOULD HAVE TROUBLE MEETING EVERY DAY LIVING EXPENSES WITH IN A FEW MONTHS IF A PRIMARY
WAGE EARNER WERE TO DIE TODAY.
THAT IS SO SAD.
SO, THE IMPORTANCE OF LIFE INSURANCE COMES TO MIND AND I KNOW THAT'S A HUGE PART OF YOUR
MESSAGE.
IT IS.
WE WERE FOUNDED ON BI TERM AND INVEST THE DIFFERENCE.
SO, LET'S TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT TERM INSURANCE.
OK.
THE THEORY OF DECREASING RESPONSIBILITY IS VERY IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND.
LET ME TELL YOU.
SO, RESPONSIBILITIES WHEN YOU ARE YOUNGER, RIGHT, WHEN YOU ARE NEWLY MARRIED OR BOUGHT
A HOME OR HAVE CHILDREN.
THEIR EDUCATION MAYBE YOU'RE PAYING FOR OR CAR PAYMENTS, RIGHT?
WE HAVE A MULTITUDE OF RESPONSIBILITIES.
IF WE HAVE A LOSS OF A BREADWINNER IN THE FAMILY OR THE CARE TAKER IT CAN DEVASTATE
THAT FAMILY FINANCIALLY.
SO, AS YOU GROW OLDER THOUGH AND THOSE RESPONSIBILITIES DO DECREASE YOU DON'T NEED QUITE AS MUCH LIFE
INSURANCE.
NOW, IF YOU INVEST AS I SAID EARLIER, BUY TERM AND INVEST THE DIFFERENCE.
IF YOU'VE INVESTED ALL OF THOSE YEARS INTO YOUR RETIREMENT, YOU'RE WELL PREPARED FINANCIALLY
TO NOT NEED AS MUCH LIFE INSURANCE BECAUSE YOU HAVE INVESTED AND SAVED YOUR MONEY.
AND ANOTHER CONCEPT I WANTED TO DISCUSS IS THE POWER OF COMPOUND INTEREST.
ALSO KNOWN AS THE RULE OF 72.
EXPLAIN THAT.
YEAH, THE RULE OF 72 IS REALLY A VERY BASIC LESSON AND WE ALL NEEDED TO LEARN THIS BACK
IN HIGH SCHOOL.
IT TEACHES HOW ONE DOLLAR BECOMES 2.
AND ALL YOU NEED TO DO IS TAKE THE NUMBER 72 AND DIVIDE IT BY THE INTEREST RATE YOU'RE
HOPING TO EARN.
BUT IF YOU WERE TO INVEST A ONE TIME INCREMENT OF MONEY, LET'S SAY 10,000 DOLLARS AT A 12%
INTEREST RATE, YOU DIVIDE THAT BY 72 AND IT WOULD TAKE 6 YEARS FOR THAT $10,000 TO DOUBLE
TO $20,000.
SO, THINK ABOUT HOW OLD YOU ARE AND HOW MANY YEARS YOU HAVE, HOW MANY DOUBLING PERIODS
YOU HAVE IN YOUR LIFE TIME?
NOW, ANOTHER WAY PRIMERICA IS HELPING PEOPLE BECOME FINANCIALLY INDEPENDENT IS TO START
YOUR OWN PRIMERICA BUSINESS.
BE YOUR OWN BOSS.
TELL ME ABOUT THAT.
WE HAVE OVER 95,000 REPRESENTATIVES.
WOW.
AND HALF OF THEM ARE COMPRISED OF WOMEN.
SO IT IS EXCITING TO SEE TODAY THE WOMEN IN OUR SALES FORCE, THEY'RE WIVES AND MOTHERS.
THEY HAVE EDUCATED THEMSELVES ABOUT FINANCIAL SERVICES AND THEY ARE CREATING A PHONOMENAL
FUTURE.
A LEGACY REALLY FOR THEIR OWN FAMILY.
JULIE, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING HERE TODAY.
SUCH IMPORTANT VALUABLE INFORMATION AND YOU MADE IT SIMPLE.
OH.
THANK YOU FOR DOING THAT.
THANK YOU SO MUCH JULIE.
IT WAS A PLEASURE.
ALRIGHT, AND IF YOU'D LIKE TO GET MORE INFORMATION ON HOW YOU CAN GET ON THE ROAD TO FINANCIAL
INDEPENDENCE, GO TO OUR WEBSITE, THEBALANCINGACT.COM
WE'RE ALSO ON FACEBOOK.(MUSIC) TODAY WE ARE VERY EXCITED TO BEGIN OUR FOUR
PART MINI SERIES RECLAIM YOUR LIFE, RELEARN TO RELIVE IN A WAY YOU'VE NEVER LIVED BEFORE.
IN THE COMING WEEKS WE ARE GOING TO ROADMAP HOW YOU CAN TAKE BACK YOUR LIFE FROM ADDICTION.
WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE, THE COURAGE IT TAKES TO DO SO, AND THE TOOLS THAT WILL ASSIST IN
A VICTORIOUS OUTCOME.
WHILE NOT EASY TO TALK ABOUT, IT'S SOMETHING WE MUST TALK ABOUT.
JOINING ME THIS MORNING IS DOCTOR MAUREEN ESPISIDO, EXECUTIVE VICE PRESIDENT OF CLINICAL
SERVICES AT TRANSFORMATIONS TREATMENT CENTER IN DELRAY BEACH, FLORIDA.
SHE AND HER TEAM WILL BE HELPING US TACKLY THIS EPIDEMIC OF ADDICTION.
DOCTOR THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR JOINING ME THIS MORNING.
THANK YOU SO MUCH, I'M HAPPY TO BE HERE.
DOCTOR, YOU KNOW, EVERYBODY STRUGGLES WITH SOMETHING IN THEIR LIFE.
WE'VE HAD OUR UPS AND DOWNS, BUT IS IT SAFE TO SAY THAT PEOPLE TAKE REFUGE IN DIFFERENT
WAYS?
I THINK THEY DO.
I THINK PEOPLE WILL LOOK TO A VARIETY OF THINGS FOR COMFORT AND FOR SOLICE.
AND LIFE IF BECOMING VERY DIFFICULT IN THIS DAY AND AGE.
AND MANY TIMES PEOPLE VERY INNOCENTLY WILL DRINK OR DRUG THINKING THAT IT'S A ONE TIME
THING OR A CASUAL THING OR SOCIAL THING.
AND BEFORE YOU KNOW, IT BECOMES A PROBLEM.
SO, THIS IS WHAT WE ARE REALLY TAKING A LOOK AT.
WHEN PEOPLE WIND UP IN TREATMENT LIFE HAS BECOME VERY DIFFICULT AND LIFE HAS BECOME
MANY TIMES OUT OF CONTROL WITH SUBSTANCES.
AND WHAT IS SUBSTANCE ABUSE LOOK LIKE?
SUBSTANCE ABUSE WILL REALLY LOOK LIKE A VARIETY OF THINGS.
IT WILL LOOK LIKE HOUSE WIFE WHO HAS A FEW CHILDREN AT HOME.
IT WILL LOOK LIKE A TEENAGE BOY A TEENAGE GIRL.
IT WILL LOOK LIKE A HUSBAND WHO GOES TO WORK.
IT WILL LOOK LIKE SOMEONE WHO HAS A LOT OF STRESS.
IT WILL LOOK LIKE SOMEONE WHO MAYBE JUST IS PARTYING.
AND SO IT COMES IN A VARIETY OF SHAPES AND SIZES AND IT SHOWS ABSOLUTELY NO DISCRIMINATION
BETWEEN THE YOUNG AND THE OLD.
THE EDUCATED THE UNEDUCATED.
THE RICH AND THE POOR.
AS I'VE HEARD, IT CAN HAPPEN TO YOU, IT CAN HAPPEN TO ME.
AND I ALWAYS WONDER WHAT TO LOOK OUT FOR.
THINGS TO LOOK FOR WILL BE CHANGES IN HABITS.
IF YOU HAVE A CLOSE FAMILY AND THE CHILD SUDDENLY DOESN'T WANT TO COME TO THE DINNER TABLE OR
STARTS TO SLEEP EXCESSIVELY OR STAYS OUT LATE ALL NIGHT.
THOSE SORTS OF THINGS.
AND DOCTOR, HOW DO WE KNOW WE HAVE LOST CONTROL?
MANY TIMES THE CLIENT OR THE PATIENT THEMSELVES HAS NO IDEA THEY'VE LOST CONTROL.
IT'S THE FAMILY MEMBERS AROUND THEM WHO MIGHT SAY--
REALLY?
--HEY, WHAT'S GOING ON?
YOU LOOK LIKE YOU'VE LOST CONTROL.
YOU'VE EITHER LOST A LOT OF WEIGHT, YOU KNOW, YOU'RE SLEEPING HABITS ARE CHANGING, YOUR
DIETARY HABITS ARE CHANGING.
MAYBE YOU'RE NOT TAKING OF YOURSELF.
SO, THOSE WOULD BE SOME OF THE SIGNS THAT ADDICTION, SUBSTANCE ABUSE HAS GOTTEN OUT
OF CONTROL.
AND I'D LIKE OUR VIEWERS TO KNOW THAT I SPENT SOME TIME WITH YOU AND YOUR STAFF AT THE TRANSFORMATIONS
TREATMENT CENTER.
WHAT AN AMAZING FACILITY.
TALK TO ME ABOUT IT.
AND YOU ARE TAKING A TOUR OF OUR FACILITY I THINK YOU REALLY GOT AN IDEA OF WHAT WONDERFUL
STAFF MEMBERS WE HAVE.
YES.
HIGHLY EDUCATED, VERY PERSONABLE, VERY WARM AND NURTURING.
AND PARTLY, THAT'S WHAT PEOPLE NEED WHEN THEY COME INTO RECOVERY IS THAT THEY FORGET HOW
TO SOCIALIZE, THEY FORGET THAT THE HELPERS ARE ALL AROUND THEM AND THAT THE LOVE IS ALL
AROUND THEM.
AND I WAS ACTUALLY ABLE TO MEET SOME VERY SPECIAL PEOPLE WHO ARE RECLAIMING THEIR LIVES,
FACING THEIR FEARS, AND REALLY HAVING COURAGE TO BE AT YOUR FACILITY AND THE COURAGE TO
SPEAK TO ME.
SO, I'D LIKE TO SHARE THAT WITH YOUR VIEWERS.
GREAT.
IS THAT OK?
THAT WOULD BE GREAT.
LET'S TAKE A LISTEN.
WHEN YOU'RE ACTIVE, YOU DON'T THINK ABOUT ANYBODY ELSE.
ALL YOU CAN THINK ABOUT IS YOUR SELF AND YOU KNOW, WHATEVER YOU NEED TO DO TO GET THAT
NEXT DRUG.
I HAD NOBODY IN MY LIFE.
I WAS LIVING ON STREETS IN THE WINTER WITH, YOU KNOW, THE CLOTHES ON MY BACK.
NO MONEY IN MY POCKET.
IT WAS PRETTY MUCH JUST ME.
THE MORE I DRANK, THE MORE DEPRESSED I GOT.
AND THE MORE DAMAGE I WOULD DO.
NOW, DOCTOR, EACH OF THEM HAS A DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE BUT YET, TRULY RELATABLE ISSUES,
RIGHT?
EXACTLY.
I THINK THE CONNECTING FACTOR IS ISOLATION.
PEOPLE BECOME ISOLATED IN THEIR ADDICTION.
WHEN PEOPLE COME IN AND THEY DON'T HAVE HOPE.
THEY ALMOST FEEL DESPERATE.
WHAT I USUALLY SAY TO THEM IS, WE HAVE ENOUGH HOPE FOR YOU AND WE'LL CARRY YOU UNTIL YOU
DEVELOP THAT HOPE IN YOURSELF THROUGH THE TREATMENT.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING HERE.
THANK YOU.
YOU KNOW WE ARE GOING TO SEE YOU AGAIN.
YES.
ABSOLUTELY.
THANK YOU AGAIN TO YOUR STAFF TOO AND TO EVERYONE THERE FOR ALLOWING US TO GO IN THERE.
IT REALLY WAS AN AMAZING EXPERIENCE FOR ME AS WELL.
AND BE SURE TO HEAD TO OUR WEBSITE FOR A LINK TO TRANSFORMATIONS AND ALL THE RESOURCES THEY
OFFER.
THE SITE ALLOWS YOU TO CHAT OR CALL THE ADMINISTRATION LINE AND SPEAK TO SOMEONE THAT CAN HELP OR
JUST BE A LISTENING EAR AND PLEASE STAY TUNED.
AS IN THE COMING WEEKS, WE ARE GOING TO LOOK AT ALL PARTS OF ADDICTION FROM RECOGNIZING
THE SIGNS TO FAMILY DYNAMICS, FROM COPING TOOLS, TO RECLAIMING YOUR LIFE.
SO, A LOT TO TALK ABOUT.
STAY TUNED.
