More about this event:
Often the first step to better money management is to get familiar with the basics. This
full-day workshop is designed to do just that. Using a workbook written by Steven "Shags" Shagrin, you will gain practical knowledge in the following areas:
  • Sources of Income
  • Ideas for Saving and
    Budgeting
  • Tips for Saving and Investing
  • Tax Planning
    Ideas
  • Understanding Your Insurance Needs
  • Estate
    Planning
  • Selecting, Interviewing and Working with a
    Financial Advisor
In this last area you will learn the difference between planning professionals and sales professionals, how they are paid, how the things they sell or services they provide are priced, and how to have a relationship based on a designed alliance. Though financial professionals make recommendations based on their understanding of your unique situation, the final
decision and ultimate responsibility for taking action rests with you. This course will give you the basic knowledge you need to be an informed consumer and enable you to better navigate the world of personal finance.
