The idea for Smart Money, Bright Future was conceived by OC World Production founder/executive producer Scott Hays who wanted to create programming with a focus on giving back. Ultimately, the hope is that the program will assist families and individuals make smart decisions with a focus on long-term financial stability. While the program is geared towards underserved communities, Hays says the tips and information are practical and can benefit anyone.
