The markets are in turmoil, and consumers need economic information, tools and practical resources to help equip them to survive this financial storm. Often the general public does not have access to talk directly with the experts.
‘Turbulent times, plant closings, pension terminations, corporate bankruptcies and volatile markets, emphasize the need for accurate financial information,? said Loran S. Coffman, local Registered Financial Consultant. ‘Everyone needs data that fits their situation and concerns. Tha’is why we have launched a local Consumer Economic Symposium, where the public will have a chance to meet and speak with multiple industry experts discussing different strategies and tools.
“Consumers will be provided with tangible solutions to help protect, build and diversify their investment portfolios. This will be set in an educational forum, with no pressure, no obligation, and no commitment imposed. “
Nationally renowned speaker, trainer, and consultant Michael Wickett will talk about ‘Thinking Beyond Boundaries.?
He has been recognized for his ability to reach and inspire his audience with power packed content and dynamic, focused messages. The cost is $30 per couple or $20 dollars for individuals.
“Finally, a format for the public that in the past, has only been available to the professional advisor community,” Coffman said. “Our society grows more complex every day. Consumers are presented with constant pressures of family, career, community responsibilities and their goals for personal enrichment and comfortable retirement. But all this is threatened by proposed new laws, regulations, economic events, market changes, product offerings and conflicting messages. Making the right financial moves at the right time is critical to achieving security and accomplishing personal objectives.
‘Surviving the Financial Storm? is at The Palace of Auburn Hills, in the Chairman’s Club, on Saturday morning March 7, from 8:30 a.m. to noon. Due to limited seating, advanced registration required, by calling toll free (866) 977-7526.
