Changing the Face of Retirement Webinar
In this presentation, we will discuss how retirement is changing, and why many of us need to adjust our retirement planning strategies. A key piece of that involves reviewing the structure of both Social Security and Medicare, as well as the challenges they face and how they might be improved. We’ll also review important options to consider, such as Medigap insurance and Medicare HMOs, as well as other effective strategies to help you plan for your medical and financial needs during retirement. These steps can help you be more financially prepared because you won’t want to rely completely on Social Security and Medicare.

Estate Planning 101
Who needs an estate plan? Chances are, you do. You may think that estate planning is just for the wealthy, but it’s not. In fact, an estate plan may actually be more important if you have a smaller estate, because your final expenses will have a much greater impact on your estate and there’s a much greater possibility that your loved ones could suffer from a lack of financial resources. The fact is, without an estate plan, you can’t control what happens to your property if you die or become incapacitated.
