Building Your Financial Fire Escape
About this course
This course is designed specifically for firefighters, first responders, and public safety professionals who want to strengthen their financial future beyond their pension. You’ll learn the fundamentals of the stock market, how to open and manage a brokerage account, and how to confidently place your first trade—step by step.
We also break down how investing in a personal brokerage account can work alongside your pension and deferred compensation plans (457/401k)—not replace them. You’ll learn how these systems fit together to create multiple layers of income, reduce financial stress, and provide flexibility before and after retirement.
Built for those who work long shifts, face real risks, and put family first, this course shows you how to use long-term investing to build wealth, protect your lifestyle, and create generational opportunities for your family—on and off the job.
