Everyone we know is anxious about money. Money seems to "come out as fast as it comes in," and financial stability is illusive for most. Unfortunately, the financial sector has largely forgotten who they're serving. Record profits are fueled by deceptive products and hidden fees.
We started Telescope to counteract these forces. We want to help you spend less time worrying about money, and more time living your life. And we want to do it in an honest, independent way.
