Dear Friends,

Thinking about our financial future can be confusing and sometimes scary. It doesn't need to be. My office is joining forces with a non-profit partner, NAST Foundation, to bring
you the tools, information and motivation to help you feel
more confident about managing your personal finances.

We all know the financial decisions we make today have a direct effect on the opportunities available to us tomorrow. A life of financial success and security beings with a strong education and that education begins here. I want to give you the skills that can help get you started on the path to a successful financial future.

No matter where you are financially the information contained within this web page will allow you to begin taking steps now for the future. Through our partnership with the foundation, we have developed northdakota.tomorrowsmoney.org. This site provides a comprehensive, one-stop-shop for women, young people, military families or anyone who may have recently suffered an unexpected change in their life such as the sudden loss of a job or death of a spouse. Plus, it will assist people who just need a little help getting a handle on their finances.

All the material on the site is FREE and easy to understand. You can be assured that your privacy is strictly protected. The only thing sold on this web page is the peace of mind that I hope you will gain from the information.

So join me, today, in taking that first step to financial success.

Sincerely,
Kelly L. Schmidt
North Dakota State Treasurer
