BOISE, Idaho, Aug. 29, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Mountain America Credit Union continues its partnership with Young Money Media in sponsoring Young Money University (YMU), a financial success program for college-age young adults throughout the Intermountain West. This September, YMU will be presenting at Boise State University for the first time thanks to the help and support of the Boise State Financial Wellness Program.
Todd Romer, Young Money Media founder, will offer his high-energy presentation “Do Money Differently: 5 Powerful Steps to Live A Life That Fits Your Dreams” on September 17 at 5:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m. and September 18 at 9:00 a.m. The free event will be in the Spec Auditorium and is open to the public.

I am proud to work with Mountain America as they pursue their mission to help members and the public achieve their financial dreams,” adds Young Money Media Founder Todd Romer. “I am excited to come to Boise to share my insights on how to dream, save, spend, invest, and give money differently to help anyone pursue a life that fits their dreams."
