Nick Bush is working in Rockford as a financial representative for Northwestern Mutual Financial Network.  He works in the financial services industry, he does insurance and investments for clients. He looks at the client's current situation and find out if they need to put more money in certain areas to achieve their financial goals. He takes into consideration where they want to be for retirement, children's education, or what ever the case may be, and factor in inflation and a lot of other variables, and tell them if they are on track or not. For example, if a couple is concerned with education for their children and they are putting away "X" dollars away every year. He does an analysis on it, factor in inflation of a dollar, the tuition, room and board of a certain school, the inflation rate of education, and show them where they are going to be in so many years when that time comes. He really likes his job because he says that he can make a significant difference in people's lives. "With my clients, I do a lot of work to make sure when they are older in life, they are going to have choices. I work a lot with young married couples, families, young professionals, and small business owners. I really like working with young married couples and other smart young people, because with them, I start to build the "Pyramid of Needs" for their financial security in life."
