Description

EVENTBRITE TICKETS ARE NOT YOUR REGISTRATION AND DOES NOT GUARUNTEE A SPOT. A LIBRARY STAFF MEMBER WILL REGISTER TICKET HOLDERS AS SPOTS ALLOW. YOU WILL RECEIVE AN EMAIL FROM BENTONVILLE PUBLIC LIBRARY TO CONFIRM REGISTRATION. Our goal is to provide knowledge on financial principles such as the rule of 72, tax impact on investment return, and diversification of market risk. We would like to educate and emphasize the importance of disciplined saving, long term mindset, and planning ahead. For adults. Registration is required. In this free workshop, we will cover topics including (1) financial concepts, (2) college fund planning, and (3) retirement planning. An hour of knowledge sharing will not make anyone an expert in personal financial planning; nor will it answer all the questions we have. It will certainly raise questions that we must ask ourselves: - How can I be more diversified? - Where & how to save for education and maximize financial aid? - How tax efficient are my investments? - Am I prepared and funded for my retirement years?
