Session #4

“Retirement 101: Where do I even begin?”

You know planning for retirement is important…however, you don’t know where to begin, money is tight, you might be too busy, you have lesson plans to prepare, or maybe you hope to win the lottery. CTA Member Benefits can’t help you with lesson plans (and the lottery’s a gamble), but by attending this session, you’ll leave with a better understanding of retirement concepts, how to design your retirement plan, and be introduced to the CTA 403(b) Retirement Savings Plan. Plan Fiduciaries will explain how to open and fund a 403(b) to make sure you’re fully prepared for a financially secure retirement.
