The newest mascot hopeful! Check him out!
The next potential mascot has arrived in the “official” unofficial search for an FPA mascot. The competition has searched the globe, high and low, for a mascot that would best represent financial planners and help promote the industry. They need to have the right people skills, the right knowledge and the right image to be successful.
So far we have had some interesting candidates (albeit some unusual ones). The first hopeful was wanting to become the FPA pig! We then had an eccentric Russian man who believed he had what it takes. A slightly irritating American trader was next and a British sailor from the 16th century was last, although I am not sure how he managed to get so lost that he ended up in this century!
Our new mascot is prolific basketball player from the U.S. “Steve O’Neill”. Steve’s confident, maybe a little too confident, but at least he believes in the value of having his financial planner Kevin looking after his assets. Steve also knows too well that just because he has money now, does not mean he will have money tomorrow, which is a good reason to plan!
Check out his video and let me know if you think he has what it takes! =)
