Mark Hudon wants to help you
Get Financially Fit For Life!

Can you become financially fit for life? I believe you can – and I think personal performance coaching can play a vital role in your financial future.

Top athletes and business professionals hire coaches to improve their performance, productivity and quality of life. With expert coaching, athletes develop skills and endurance. With expert financial coaching, you can learn how to plan and execute the perfect financial roadmap to suit your values, goals, and dreams.

Your expert financial coach can keep you focused in volatile investment markets, so you can avoid making irrational decisions. Your coach will care about you, create a relationship with you, and talk to you all year – not once a year like the typical financial advisor.

Your expert financial coach will give you sound financial guidance. That means honesty, not sweet talk. That means genuine concern for your future, and the future of your family.

As an Ironman Triathlete, I learned what it takes to succeed through great physical, mental and emotional challenges. As an expert financial coach, I know what it will take to help you realize your greatest dreams. I’ve been coaching people for over 12 years, and I will be there to help you keep on track and celebrate your victories.

Combining my extensive experience with top coaching practices from the fields of business, sport, personal development, investment and finance, I have created a unique and powerful program specifically designed to help you get financially fit for life.

On a personal note, I successfully completed my second Ironman triathlon in Frankurt, Germany in July 2005, and in addition to Jacob (September 26, 2003) my wife Cathy & I are very proud to welcome our second son, Noah,  born on March 2, 2006. Click here for a photo of Cathy & the boys.

THE FINANCIALLY FIT FOR LIFE PROGRAM

An Introduction

I believe this program may present the most valuable information you will ever receive on getting financially fit for life. But just talking and thinking about it won’t make it happen. Only action will bring results. That’s why I’ve worked hard to become an expert Financial Fitness Coach. I can help you clarify your vision and create your own Financial Road Map™. As your Trusted Advisor Coach, I can help you implement your program so you can get “Financially Fit for Life”.

I work with no more than 100 clients – and I consider them Clients for Life.

I work best with people who are:

  • Proactive & Patient: My best clients are clear about what they want in life and ready to go for it. They anticipate obstacles and embrace challenges.

  • Positive: They enjoy life, see the glass as being half full, and believe in making a difference; they live healthy, active and balanced lives.

  • Principle-Centered: They are men and women of integrity, character, consideration, compassion, and courage.

  • Prudent Savers: They willingly live below their means while accumulating assets.

  • Process-Oriented: They value the journey as well as the destination.

  • Coachable: They see the wisdom of delegating financial planning to a trusted advisor coach who is 100% committed to achieving the desired results.

  • Results-Oriented: They stick with the program, particularly in the face of adversity, because they know that achievement requires commitment.

THE FINANCIALLY FIT FOR LIFE PROGRAM

“Motivating you to enjoy lifetime financial health and a higher quality of life”.

A Rational Path for Lifetime Wealth
Slow and steady wins the race.


We’ve learned that in life and investing, chasing the speedy and the glamorous, the trendy or hot is not the surest way to reach a goal. Like the fabled tortoise, we value patience and persistence over the fleeting and flashy.

Regular Reports
This program charts the progress toward your goals, and it helps us identify the most intelligent steps to achieving them.

Results

Sound principles produce sound results. Sound principles practiced consistently for years produce extraordinary results. Our program is not a quick fix for today – it is designed for the long run, and it has proven to yield significant results to our clients.
