Highly recommend Money Mentors!Jason Krausert is an amazing counsellor that really helped me and my mom out today. He was very professional, non-judgmental, and took his time listening to our situation. My mom was a victim of scam and was left with overwhelming debts.He took the time to thoroughly go over a financial needs assessment with us and provided us with extremely helpful resources and most relevant options to paying off the debt.We felt lost and overwhelmed but Jason has given us the hope that we can overcome this ordeal.Thank you Jason and Money Mentors. Please continue the great work you do!

I was drowning in debt—there was so much of it. The calls from creditors didn't stop. My bank was no help.I contacted Money Mentors to inquire about the OPD program and their advice. I was prepared to dedicate myself to clearing my debts. I was ready to cut up my credit cards. My counselor and I worked through some homework before we created my payback schedule. Since I was determined to pay off this personal debt on my own, I made large monthly payments. The phone calls from creditors stopped, which was a relief.Despite some difficult months, I am debt free after 56 months! It has not sunk in yet. My perspective has changed from one of spending and worrying about it later to one of saving and planning. Though I still worry about going back into debt, I can always turn to the Money Mentors website for helpful guidance.
