Purpose of Meeting

The purpose of the booking is to conduct an hour long educational pension presentation on six strategies for public employees to increase their pension and reduce their costs and give time for Q&A for members in the community to stop in and ask pension related questions.

The subjects I discuss are: service credit, final average salary, and retirement option election choices. I provide descriptions and examples that show public employees the impact of saving accruals, purchasing service credit earlier in their career to reduce the purchase cost, and comparing retirement beneficiary coverage - option election choices versus life insurance. The purpose of the presentation is to provide the public with simple strategies they can take action on today that will have a long term impact and benefit to their pension calculation.
