Elephant's Tale: Our Founder's Journey
and strategy he could find. He developed his own methodologies and emerged from this period with valuable lessons, experience, and a newfound financial wisdom and passion.
Nev learned the importance of saving, making informed debt decisions and proper management, and intelligent investing. But mostly, Nev learned about the utmost importance of financial literacy and education. At the age of 37 Nev became financially independent and able to retire. Uncertain which path to take next and not an idle mind, Nev continued working in higher education while taking a deep dive into his life's calling. Fueled by his passion for financial health and desire to be of service, he embarked on a mission to educate and empower others, eventually feeling a higher calling: to pursue a career in financial coaching and planning.
With that in mind, Nev went back to school, to receive a Financial Planning Certificate, a required education towards becoming a Certified Financial Planner, obtained his insurance agent license, and Series 65, all in the aspiration to provide the absolute best service to his clients.
After 25 years in higher education, Nev retired and is now fully focused on serving as a financial planner and adviser to his clients.
Nev works with individuals and families, business owners and entrepreneurs. He has served as a blockchain specialist and financial consultant for many start-ups and small to medium size businesses, helping them gain greater clarity and profitability. Committed to giving back, he volunteers with local and national non-profits, offering pro bono financial assistance and teaching financial literacy courses. As a published author and speaker Nev brings a wealth of knowledge and deep sense of purpose to Elephant Corner Financial.
Nev Kraguljevic, MBA, CSLP©
Founder
Our journey begins with the story of Nev Kraguljevic, the driving force behind our mission. Nev is an immigrant to the United States, hailing from a middle-class family in eastern Europe. With determination and resilience, he pursued a career in higher education, overseeing student housing for nearly 25 years. In his role, Nev was not only responsible for financial analysis, projections and forecasts, but also for fostering values of education, equity, diversity and social justice.
With an MBA in hand, Nev ventured into the world, seeking to secure his own financial future. His path was not without its challenges and hardships. For many years, Nev lived paycheck to paycheck and spiraled into severe debt, losing everything in the 2008 financial crisis. This was the turning point that led him to a deep exploration and study of personal finance space. Hitting the rock bottom, he made a decision to make life-long and drastic life changes. He tested every theory
"I always wanted to create a safe space where money and wealth can be freely discussed, without shame or fear and where we can talk about the proverbial Elephant In The Room. There is no such thing as a dumb question here. The world of finance is vast and confusing. The good news is, you don't have to face it alone. You can have a trusted and experienced partner firmly in your corner, dedicated to assisting you."
