Reinvent Your Financial Future @ the Fairfield Public Library -- Long Term Care Planning

Even if you have put money aside for your retirement, through a 401(k), for example, these assets are vulnerable should you need long term care.  Just one year in a Connecticut nursing home can cost more than $127,000.  Medicare and health insurance may only cover a fraction of these costs.  Learn how to protect your assets.   Find out about the long term care insurance approved by the Connecticut Partnership for Long Term Care and at what point in your financial planning you need to include it. This program will take place Tuesday, October 2 at noon in the Rotary Room at the Main Library, 1080 Old Post Road.


Presenter Aldo Pantano returns to the Library for this important program.  He is a Connecticut Partnership Training Program Specialist with the Connecticut Partnership for Long Term Care Office of Policy and Management.
 
From September through December the Library will offer 25 programs focused on critical topics that affect personal finance including budgeting, basic and advanced investing, Social Security, Medicare, estate planning, and more.  Attendance at programs earns you “Bonus Bucks” redeemable for prizes.  Please visit the Library website (www.fairfieldpubliclibrary.org) to see the full schedule of programs.  This series is made possible by a grant from the FINRA Investor Education Foundation through Smart investing@your library®, a partnership with the American Library Association.
