In 2018, Chris and Daisy Quitco of Compton, Calif., had a baby girl. When they brought her to the pediatrician for a one-month checkup, they expected to encounter doctors, crying babies and flu shots. They didn't expect to see a personal finance coach in the exam room.
For the Quitcos, it turned out to be a lifeline – a well-timed intervention that helped stabilize their finances. "We never expected to walk into a clinic and be able to speak to someone about what we're going through, especially our life experiences and debt," Chris Quitco says.
