HAMPTON ROADS, VA – Navy Federal Credit Union and CinCHouse.com announced a new discussion forum on CinCHouse.com entitled “Money Chat.” The live public forum allows military families to get solid advice on managing money directly and anonymously from Navy Federal’s financial experts.
“CinCHouse.com is very excited to have Navy Federal’s counselors so readily available for our young military wives and women in uniform,” said Meredith Leyva, founder of CinCHouse.com. “Topics like debt management, car and mortgage loans, and savings are always pressing for young military families, especially in this economy. By providing near-real-time responses to their critical questions, Navy Federal is truly serving our military community.”
Navy Federal recently expanded membership eligibility to all military services and Defense Department employees, and it continues to expand branches into Army and Air Force bases. This access allows CinCHouse.com visitors the ability to proactively follow up on advice they received online.
“CinCHouse.com has built a substantial online community over the last 10 years, and one that many of our members use on a regular basis,” said Cutler Dawson, President and CEO at Navy Federal. “We are delighted to partner with CinCHouse.com to coach military families on money management topics.”
