Our associates Benjamin Whitlock and Rob Fulp were thrilled to participate in the groundbreaking for a new OHM Hilton hotel in Denton, TX!

Today, Amaya Bell, Employment Specialist, attended the Missouri Career Center job fair at the Drew Lewis Foundation. Approximately 35 employers attended this event, which is designed to remove barriers and bring job opportunities to people who find the job search process challenging. We love spreading the word about what it means to be a part of the GSB community; you can find a list of available opportunities on our LinkedIn page and Indeed.

When you Google “fall in love with finances,” one of the first search results is “Should I marry for love or money?” We can’t answer that for you, but what we can help you with is gaining a solid understanding of financial knowledge to support yourself. Like learning to read and finding love, financial literacy is not something anyone is born an expert at, and it’s okay to admit we all have more to discover.    Great Southern offers a Financial Education Center that could be called a money version of Match.com. The program will ask you a series of questions to gain an idea of what you, as an individual, are most interested in learning about. Imagine having a date that asks questions about you for once! These work-at-your-own-pace lessons allow you to fall in love with finances without all the pressure of typical dating.   Like any perfect date, Great Southern will pick up the bill. By this, we mean these courses are accessible to anyone, regardless of whether you are a Great Southern customer. These lessons are a guaranteed good date that doesn’t even require you to leave the house.    At the end of the day, no one can answer the lifelong question of whether someone should marry for love or money, but this Valentine's Day, we can tell you that the best investment you can make in a relationship is the one you have with yourself. Financial literacy sets people up for a lifetime of self-love and success.   You can visit our Financial Education Center to get started, and stay tuned for more February articles about falling in love with finances.  https://lnkd.in/efixvFPt
