Flipping the Switch for Happiness and Financial Security

The January 2020 Financial Couseling call with AFCPE and FPA will be held on January 16th at 12 pm ET.

Guest speaker Barbara O'Neill will be presenting, "Flipping the Switch for Happiness and Financial Security."

Leaving full-time employment, particularly in later life, often requires a 180 degree turn in both mindset and behavior from the way people managed their time and money previously.  Whether someone is "flipping the switch" from full time work to retirement, or using the "dimmer switch" to phase into retirement, there are a myriad of life changes that need to be considered.  This webinar will explore 20 different transitions for individuals who are flipping the switch to retirement.

Key Topics that will be covered include:

• Describe common personal and financial transitions in later life.
• Learn retirement-specific financial information.
• Learn about available resources related to later life decision-making.
