| Damien - Flexible Outcome |
|
"Friends had told me to buy shares before but I didn't know anything about it. I thought the knowledge I gained would give me the opportunity to be self reliant and financially secure. I thought it would take me where I wanted to be in life and it has. I can go overseas or travel wherever I want and can do it from anywhere in the world." An accidental phone call led ex-real estate salesman Damien to discover the secret to financial success and flexibility through ACOFE. It was an accidental phone call that assisted in getting ACOFE student Damien on the road to success after he called them enquiring about a financial planner. "A rep came to my house and explained they were not financial planners and that they don't give advice. However, he then began to go over what the courses had to offer." "I wasn't expecting for him to start talking about the stock market." The case of "mistaken identity" had become a chance for Damien to look into an industry he had never experienced and having liked what he saw , he signed up for a course six months ago. "Friends had told me to buy shares before but I didn't know anything about it. I thought the knowledge I gained would give me the opportunity to be self reliant and financially secure. I thought it would take me where I wanted to be in life and it has. I can go overseas or travel wherever I want and can do it from anywhere in the world." Apart from providing job flexibility, Damien says one lesson he's learnt has little to do with stocks or shares. "It's about personal development and understanding my financial situation." With real estate and property background, Damien says that stock market is a different ball game. "I thought it was going to be hard, but its not. You certainly don't have to be a genius to work it out. At first it felt like a job but then it clicked." Another reason Damien has been so impressed with ACOFE is the level of support from staff. "I can ring them up right now and ask any question, or email a teacher with a query and I'd get an answer back straight away." |
