How far through the steps are you?

You get the grand in savings, paid off debt, then advanced to 3-6 months expense in savings?

After that you begin to invest if I remember right

If I were you and met those things I would start researching brokers. For instance, I want to invest in socially responsible companies. That keeps me away from companies that promote destructive behavior. Stem-cell research for example. I prefer 'green' companies and those that support research in alternatives to fossil fuel. I then start looking at mutual funds that not only offer a profit but promote what I believe is good for the country/world. I prefer the great growth that mid-cap companies offer.

For term-life, Zander's and Dave are in cahoots with each other and he recommends them.

Try this:

Talk to an ELP (Endorsed Local Providrer) found on his website for your area and they get money by you coming on board with them doing things Dave's way.
