Melanie Finer
Money Mentor & Fun With Finances ExpertMy Story
Hi, I’m Melanie Finer, and I know it’s possible to accelerate your financial goals because I did it myself.
In just 12 weeks I optimized my family’s spending and started knocking out every single financial goal on our list within just months–goals we had previously been trying to achieve for years! And all on an annual income of less than $200k.
But it wasn’t always this way. I met Paul in college in 2005 and we got married a few years later. In the meantime I started a career in customer service training and management. A few years later we added 2 children to our family.
We were making good money, but, as two natural spenders, we struggled for nearly a decade–trying to figure out how to make our money work for us in a way that both felt life-giving and let us accomplish our goals quickly.
And it wasn’t until I unlocked the knowledge of how to optimize our spending that we were able to both reach our goals quickly AND live our best life–our Finer Life.
That’s when, at 32, I quit my 9 to 5 so we could have more time as a family–and I never looked back! We cash-funded a new car, started several businesses, hired multiple coaches, and increased our investments.
We even began to live our dream life of growing our family, spending our time doing more of what we love, and empowering others. And we did all of this while having in-home help, frequenting cafes, going out, and taking vacations.
Over the last 6 years as a money mentor and fun with finances expert Melanie’s helped others optimize their family’s finances, achieve their goals in a fraction of the time, and uplevel their lifestyles in a way that is true to their values, hopes and dreams.
Goals like travel, buying a new home, private education, funding a business, or even retiring early. I can help you with all of those things and more!
Because every family deserves to live their best life, your Finer Life – whatever that looks like for you <3
Today, it’s my mission to empower other women to achieve this in their own lives too, starting with optimizing their family finances.
My Values & Beliefs
Kindness & Respect
I believe that every individual deserves to be treated with kindness and respect, regardless of their background, beliefs, or status.
Kindness empowers us to show compassion and empathy towards others, and to create positive interactions and relationships.
Respect, on the other hand, helps us to acknowledge and appreciate the worth and dignity of others, and to treat them with fairness and equality. These values also align with my personal philosophy of living a fulfilling and meaningful life, as
I believe that acts of kindness and respect can contribute to making the world a better place. Ultimately, kindness and respect are at the core of who I am, and guide my actions and interactions with those around me.
Family & Fun
Family and fun are two core values that are deeply important to me.
Family provides a sense of love, support, and belonging, and I prioritize spending quality time with them whenever possible. I believe that family is not limited to just blood relations, but also includes close friends and individuals who provide a sense of connection and support.
Fun, on the other hand, is a value that allows me to enjoy life and experience joy in the present moment. I believe that it is important to engage in activities that bring happiness and fulfillment, and to find enjoyment in everyday moments.
For me, these values are interconnected, as spending time with family and loved ones often involves participating in fun activities and creating memories together. Overall, family and fun are core values that bring meaning and purpose to my life, and remind me to prioritize connection, joy, and to live in the moment.
Mission & Growth
Mission and growth drive me forward in both my personal and professional life.
A sense of mission provides a clear sense of purpose, direction, and motivation to work towards meaningful goals. I believe that having a strong sense of mission empowers us to focus energy and resources towards achieving what is important to us, and to create a positive impact in the world.
Growth, on the other hand, is a value that encourages us to continuously learn, uplevel as we develop new skills and achieve our goals, and expand our knowledge and perspective.
I believe that growth is essential to achieving my own mission, as it empowers me to adapt to changing circumstances, overcome challenges, and create new opportunities for myself and others.
For me, my sense of mission drives me towards personal and professional growth, while growth empowers me to achieve my mission with greater effectiveness and impact. Together, mission and growth are core values that inspire me to pursue my passions, live up to my potential, and contribute to the greater good.
My Approach
Financial Mentorship offers a unique approach to financial planning. While many programs and advisors provide knowledge, they often fail to address the underlying causes that keep you from achieving your goals and dreams. That’s where mentorship stands out.
In my Finer Financial Mentorship you’ll work with me in 1:1 sessions to uncover your family’s current money story and what makes you unique. We’ll then adapt the simple and effective Finer spending and saving strategies to your family’s finances in a way that honors your values, hopes and dreams-strategies that have worked for other busy families like yours!
