This program allowed him to understand the intricate issues that make up the Wealth Management Process. His training with the Certified Wealth Strategist made him well equipped so that when turbulent times came in 2008 and most financial advisors were down, Dr. Bahbah was able to grow his assets under management.

According to Dr. Bishara Bahbah, “The greatest advantage of the Certified Wealth Strategist program is that it helped me become more efficient by demonstrating to me the benefits of reducing the number of relationships that I manage. I was then able to concentrate on building quality relationships with a more focused client base. These were larger and invariably more profitable clients. I consolidated client assets that were held elsewhere and was able to secure quality referrals from these clients.”

Why is green building better?  The value of your house does not only increases, but you also save money over the life of your home.  You will live in a well-built home that is healthy, comfortable, reduces utility bills and protects the environment.

What are the green ways you can make to your Salt Lake City home improvements?  For a truly green home, use natural and recycled materials such as bamboo and straw, lumber, recycled stone and metals, and other products that are non-toxic, reusable, renewable or recyclable.  These are almost all available locally.  Use of these resources reduces building impacts on human health and the environment.

As you are designing your Salt Lake City home improvement, plan to save money in the long-term.  Choose a passive solar design (careful positioning of windows) for heating and cooling so you can achieve the same temperature all year round without needing electricity.  You can also save on utility bills by including features like root cellar or cool pantry for storing food without refrigeration.  Install water recycling system to reuse greywater (kitchen, bath, sink, laundry waste) and blackwater (toilet and garbage waste) for multiple purposes.  Additionally, consider the long-term durability of your construction by building with durable materials.  You will save money on maintenance over time.

It is true that adding green to your Salt Lake City home improvement costs more initially, but if you are to calculate the savings you can get from building green and the comfort of living, the return on investment is much higher.  And don’t forget that the best thing you can achieve from adding green to your remodeling project is contributing to a cleaner environment, making this world a better place to live.
