This month: Financial Myth Busters

 

                                  Tuesday March 10, 6:30 pm

 
When it comes to financial advice, it can be difficult to  separate fact from fiction. Is it futile to try to save thousands  in taxes? Should you liquidate your parents' assets before  they move to a long-term care home? Do you need a financial  planner if you don't have any money? 

 

Michele and Lance  look at common myths about financial planning.

 Future programs will be held in April, May and June.

Topics  include Tax Planning and Executors. For more information, pick up a flyer or check our website.
