What attracted you to WFG?: To be honest - Adam wasn't even sure he was interested in the beginning! Thank goodness for Gregg's patience! Ha! But turns out, he fell in love with the business and changing peoples lives. And Savannah just LOVED the idea of spending time with people more successful than her... the environment drew her in & engaged her competitive spirit!
Favourite WFG accomplishment: Adam would say... his license. LOL But also, honestly... the first time our team qualified as an Odyssey qualifier in the baseshop was surreal. I think we both blacked out. Savannah called her mom like 57 times, which means it was a really big deal. (in a row... until she answered.)

Favourite WFG accomplishment: When I first started in WFG, I was able to put a plan in place for a very important person in my life. One of my best friends in the military had served overseas with me and was in a very unfortunate accident. He needed to have 13 surgeries just to be able to walk again. He was in a place where the bank gave him no real help, and because of Gregg, the incredible plan we built, and the power of moving his money to a location where it would work harder for him, he would have millions more in his retirement at the age of 45 when his body would no longer be able to physically meet the demands of the military. I still get tears to this day knowing that WFG is the reason he will be okay financially when he is no longer able to work physically.
