On Monday, June 1 at 9 p.m., Makeba and I will be hosting a very special show. We will be speaking to Mark S. La Spisa, financial advisor, President and co-founder of Vermillion Financial Advisors Inc. (VFA). We’ll be asking La Spisa to share his financial expertise and answer the questions that matter to you most, including:
- * Financial advice for families with at least one incarcerated family member
- * Money saving tips for families with at least one incarcerated family member
- * Financial planning for families with an incarcerated family member
- * Financial tips for recently released individuals
- * Money saving tips for recently released individuals
Though La Spisa normally advises clients with wealth in excess of $1 million, he has personal experience with advising his own family. After La Spisa’s cousin was locked up and sentenced to 10 years in prison for cocaine possession, his mother (La Spisa’s aunt) was left with no income. Forced to deal with the reality of starting over financial, La Spisa gave her financial advice and assisted her with finding public assistance and community programs aimed at assiting low-income families.

This is a wonderful way to help the families of the incarcerated and giving the advise that’s needed especially to the person left to handle all the financial responsiblities. I pray it is a successful Web Radio show. My son has been incarcerated for a long time and have 7 children. That wife has gone through a lot. Let’s pray and help each other.

I’ve heard a lot about subprime loans. Should i be afraid of people saying I should invest in some funds that aim at people like me who don’t have that much money to invest. LIke they will charge more fees and things.
If you have been incarcerated for a long time the jobs that are available immediately after your release may not pay as much as jobs available to non felons. How do you suggest that we save 3-6 months when it is hard to cover the day to day expenses
Great job on the show!!!
