Social Security – The Unconventional Truth for a Better Retirement
6:00 PM - 7:30 PM

Today’s pre-retirees have only one chance to “get it right” when it comes to their Social Security benefits or risk the potential for greater financial uncertainty at a time when their money will be needed the most. The goal of the program is to help attendees better understand how their Social Security benefits, if strategically utilized, can potentially be used to help improve their overall quality of life in retirement.

Please register.
