Your Money is Meant for More

Greater Futures was created to empower younger generations with essential knowledge on how to manage money and build a fulfilling life – free from fear of the future.

What began as personal finance courses for local students quickly expanded to an online platform, hosted on Udemy, after recognizing the broader demand. With this growth, we committed to enhancing our content to make it more engaging and impactful.

Who we are

Wakefield Hare is the founder of Greater Futures, and also operates a financial planning firm, Greater Than Financial.

Wakefield spends his time in Savannah, Missouri where he and his wife, Sara, are raising their 3 children. He has spent countless hours with teenagers via Young Life and coaching middle school and high school tennis. His ideal evening is spent with friends and family, laughing and talking about life’s big questions.

Meet “Expo”.

His smiling face represents a chart with an exponential curve – a reminder that small progress today means huge growth for the future.

We Believe that:

Everyone is doing their best

Assume good intentions – no matter where people are on their financial journey.

Money isn’t our only resource

We grow by being intentional with our finances – 
but also our time, energy, and skills

We ALL have room to learn

Whether you’re 14 or 65, there is always something 
new to learn.
