Free Financial Advice
And who, exactly, doesn’t need help with their finances these days?
Free advice from professionals will be available Saturday, Nov. 15 in Miami.
The Certified Financial Planner Board of Standards, the group that oversees the certified financial planner designation, has rounded up local and national experts for a day of seminars and private consultations.
No one will be selling anything.
The advice planners give is supposed to be unbiased.
Participants can pick a topic and sit down with a planner for a brief consultation. Or you can attend some of the sessions on managing debt, college funding, planning for retirement, estate planning, planning for special needs situations, getting beyond living from paycheck to paycheck and investment planning for small businesses.
Four of the seminars will be conducted in Spanish.
The event will be held at the Hyatt Regency at the Miami Convention Center, 400 S.E. 2nd Ave., Miami.
To register, go to www.CFP.net or call 800-487-1497

Free financial advice is becoming a hot topic. We need more since the school system doesn't teach it. The only other place I've come across besides here has been the site www.financialswami.com. They appear to be providing a wide range of free financial planning information: retirement, life insurance, estate planning, medical & financial power of attorney and more. What I like is that its all free. I'm glad people are finally trying to help everyone out by education us.
