IDEAL INSURANCE TIP OF THE WEEK...



"We have heard it said, "Do not risk a lot for a little - it cant be done." Being underinsured at the time of a loss is risky. When determining what liability limit to carry on your insurance policies it is highly recommended to have insurance limits greater than your current and future assets."

MEET YOUR MEMBER...




 

Co-Founders Blake Hahn and Michael “Law” Armijo share what FGM is about 

 

“FGM is about helping people. We love teaching them the skills they need to succeed. We love motivating them and pushing them to pursue the fulfillment of their own true potential. Seeing people take what we give them and build their ultimate life is an amazing experience. Far beyond just becoming a millionaire. Which brings me to this point… I firmly believe that no matter who you are, how intelligent you are, how talented you are, no matter what skills you lack, how good-looking or ugly you happen to be… You could be successful in business and become extremely wealthy. If you choose, you can live the lifestyle millionaires live and enjoy the things they enjoy. More importantly you can live however you want. You just have to have the right mindset. You have to have the right tools. You have to be committed to excellence. You have to be aggressive. You have to be competitive. You have to care about people. But above all: You have to have the will to win. If you’re willing to learn. We can teach you. Let’s do it together.”

 

Blake Hahn was & Michael “Law” Armijo have spent the the last 4 years developing the skills it takes to become an elite entrepreneur. Together, Blake and Michael manage and run over 5 companies, from the Fitness/Supplements Industry to the Fashion Industry to the Online Marketing Industry and more…  Our mission with FGM is to take you from where you are in life to where you want to be in life by incorporating easy-to-implement “success habits” into your daily routine.
