What is a Daily Money Manager?
A Daily Money Manager (DMM) assists by handling personal and small business daily financial matters to foster a better financial trajectory. Fiscally Balanced® can take the burden of helping with daily financial tasks and creating a better financial workflow.

WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO BE A MEMBER OF THE AMERICAN ASSOCIATION OF DAILY MONEY MANAGERS?
A member of the American Association of Daily Money Managers (AADMM), must adhere to a Code Of Ethics and high Standards Of Practice. AADMM also performs a background check every two years on all members through an independent agency chosen by them.

Paula served on the National Board of Directors for AADMM from January 2021 through December 2022.
Do you replace my financial advisor, accountant, attorney or insurance agent?
These professionals play a critical role in your overall financial health. As DMMs, we complement these professionals by preparing and organizing documents and financial records so they can more effectively help with their respective specialties. We can meet with you and any professional as your liaison should you desire. We can also refer you to any of these professionals and others should you or your family need assistance beyond what our services cover.
What is a fiduciary?
A fiduciary is a person or organization that acts on behalf and in the best interest of another person or their estate. Fiscally Balanced®, LLC can be hired by someone that is a fiduciary needing support in their role. We can provide assistance throughout the process including consultation, financial organization, and bill payment services.
How do you handle privacy of my personal information?
After working in the legal industry for almost 17 years, Paula understands the importance of handling sensitive client data and ensuring this information stays confidential. We outline confidentiality of your personal sensitive information within the Letter of Engagement. Should you want us to have the ability to discuss your personal matters with anyone besides you, we require a separate authorization form to be signed so there is no ambiguity. Additionally, the Code of Ethics and Standards of Practice outlined within the membership of AADMM are well-defined about privacy and confidentiality. Lastly, Paula’s personal beliefs of “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you” is foundational in to how we handle all matters.
