The friends of Kelsey & Trask, P.C. are offering some great upcoming seminars and workshops to help members of the public understand their options better when it comes to legal issues. From time to time we will try to let you know about these opportunities. Here are three that we recommend in November:
Social Security and Retirement Planning: Social Security Workshop at Council on Aging
Concord, MA - Senes & Chwalek Financial Advisors is pleased to present Kurt Czarnowski, former New England Regional Communications Director for the Social Security Administration, who will present “Social Security and Retirement Planning” at the Concord Council on Aging on Monday, November 28, 2011 at 6:30 pm.
Social Security's retirement program has been a basic part of American life for more than 76 years. Because we're living longer, healthier lives, we can expect to spend more time in retirement than our parents and grandparents did, and achieving a secure, comfortable retirement is much easier when you plan for your future.
But, despite the age, the size, and the economic impact of the Social Security system, the myths and misunderstandings about what the program is, as well as what it isn’t, are sizable. Social Security benefits were never intended to be someone’s sole source of income. Instead, they should be seen as the foundation on which to build a secure retirement.
Mr. Czarnowski worked for the SSA from 1976 until his retirement in 2010. As Regional Communications Director, Czarnowski was responsible for coordinating the Social Security Administration’s public affairs/public information activities in the six New England states. In this role, he was a frequent speaker at local and regional events for members of the public, and in 2010, he was the featured presenter on “Social Security: Your Retirement Planning Questions Answered,” the Social Security Administration’s national webinar for financial service professionals. He will provide an overview of the Social Security program and will help attendees better understand the important role it plays in achieving their retirement dreams.
Senes & Chwalek Financial Advisors is located at 57 Main Street, Concord. Renee W. Senes and David Chwalek are registered representatives of Investors Capital Corporation, Member FINRA/SIPC. For more information, please contact them at 978-369-2255.
