CiFiCo (Cinematic Financial Concepts) simplifies finance concept by taking information and “cinematizing” it into fun, simple, engaging, moving visual representations (aka “movies”) accompanied by sound and touch control. Movies contain various assets, incomes, and insurance, as well as intergenerational timelines. CiFiCo can demonstrate the impact of asset accumulation, distribution, taxes, insurance, investments, intergenerational transfers, and other concepts. The tool allows individuals to gain a unique perspective on how the financial decisions they make (past, present and future) can impact their overall financial picture (movie). CiFiCo can illustrate and factor for contributions and distributions, as well as risks or attacks that may draw against one's financial stability (e.g., death, disabilities, long term care costs, lawsuits, natural disasters, market volatility, etc.). The application can illustrate a single financial concept, compare several financial strategies, or portray a fully integrated, multi-generational, financial plan.
