WFG CHAIRMAN'S COUNCIL MEMBER MONTE HOLM:
BUILDING THE AMERICAN DREAM ONE FAMILY AT A TIME

World Financial Group's Monte Holm is no stranger to financial setbacks.

Little money, almost losing his home and the struggle to find work in the construction industry marked the early years for Holm and his wife, Lisa. But when he discovered the financial services industry while he was in college, he began helping families build financial futures, and that's when his own family's fortunes turned around.

Little more than 25 years later, Holm finds himself as one of the top leaders of World Financial Group, a financial services marketing organization with independent associates throughout the United States and Canada, with an eye on other international markets. He is more than willing to share his experience and strategies for building a successful business, as well as his passion for helping families become financially independent and realize their dreams.

A HUMBLE BEGINNING

Holm spent many of his early years on a modest farm in Idaho, with the same dreams as any young boy. But at age 14, his world was turned upside down by the sudden death of his father and the subsequent loss of the family farm. Like many of his generation, Holm's father had not invested, possessed limited savings and had little extra money for life insurance. More on Monte Holm...
