Media Pitch Final

Subject Line: Cache Valley organization gives free education on becoming financial independent.

Dear Gerald:

Rarely is there a company willing to give financial education for free. Rare is exactly what Cache Valley Area Investors Association is. Founded in 2007 by USU Lecturer Preston Parker, Cache Valley Area Investors Association(CVAIA) is a nonprofit organization that is dedicated to teaching people how to become financially independent.

CVAIA meets every other Thursday at the Commerce building in Logan, Utah. CVAIA has more than 80 members and welcomes anyone interested. Parker says members range from college students to a millionaire who drives a garbage truck for a living. . The organization has a belief that anyone can work at a job they love and be financially independent.

If people learn the right mentality and approaches to investing, they can all be successful in what they desire. People should be able to spend their time doing something they love, not just a job that provides an income. Passive Income largely makes this possible. Cache Valley Area Investors Association (CVAIA) teaches people how to increase passive income. CVAIA embraces the Law of Attraction, Law of Abundance, and Law of Exchange. They practice the methods found in the ideologies of books including Rich Dad Poor Dad, The Wealthy Barber, The Millionaire Next Door, Atlas Shrugged, The Automatic Millionaire, and The Secret. CVAIA began in August 2007 and now has member from many geographical locations and from all walks of life. The members come together with the same belief: that education mitigates the risks of investing.
