COVID-19 Financial Resources
From The Founder
To the money makers of the Beworth community,
I wanted to write a quick letter to acknowledge that the Coronavirus is taking a toll on many of us. Life in isolation can be difficult, while others have lost their jobs and are trying to take care of family members from a distance. If you are worried about what the pandemic means for your future, and the impact this is going to have on your finances, please know that you are not alone. We are all in this together. But I do hope that Beworth Finance, the services and free tools I provide, can be one way that you seek clarity, find hope, and take action to ensure you're in the best possible place moving forward.
To help, I’ve compiled a list of resources and websites that may be helpful to you during these times. Some I’ve created, some are from other money gurus, but I hope all will be helpful to you.
