Teams Meeting

Retirement planning isn’t just about how much you save, it’s also about how and when you pay taxes. Without a strategy, taxes can quietly erode your retirement income.
Join us for a free virtual webinar, Smart Strategies for College Financing – Planning for Your Child’s Future, presented by Melanie Finkle, Financial Advisor. Where we’ll discuss saving for college and how to use those savings and other funding sources strategically.
What we’ll cover:
<ul><li>Setting a college savings goal</li><li>Saving for college</li><li>Paying for college</li><li>Paying off student debt</li></ul>
Why this matters:
<ul><li>It helps reduce financial stress and uncertainty: Planning ahead allows families to understand costs, explore funding options early, and avoid last‑minute decisions that can increase stress or limit choices.</li><li>It can minimize student loan debt: A thoughtful strategy helps balance savings, scholarships, grants, and borrowing—potentially reducing the long-term burden of student loans for students and parents.</li><li>It protects other financial priorities: College planning done right helps families fund education goals without sacrificing essential priorities like retirement savings or everyday financial stability.</li></ul>
College financing isn’t a one-time decision—it’s an ongoing strategy that should adapt as your family’s needs and goals change. This session is designed to help you feel informed and confident about the path ahead.
Join us on May 20th at 12:00 pm PT. RSVP to the event now, and feel free to forward this email to anyone you think may benefit – all are welcome! <a href="https://www.ameripriseadvisors.com/melanie.l.finkle/lp/event/12/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">RSVP here.</a>&nbsp;Email sophia.jaksha@ampf.com with any additional questions!
