Reinvent Your Financial Future @ the Fairfield Public Library -- Retirement Plans: IRA, 401K, 457, 403b, Annuities -- Which Ones are Right for You?

We all know that we should be saving, we all know we should be saving more, but what is the best way to save for retirement?  Join us for a review of retirement saving options with executive educator Rick Bolton.  This program will cover both qualified and non-qualified retirement plans, including: IRA, 401K, 457, 403b, and the multiple annuity plans.  Qualification issues, the accumulation period, distribution, survivor options and basic tax information will be discussed.  This program will take place Thursday, January 17 at 7:00 pm in the Rotary Room at the Main Library, 1080 Old Post Road.
