About David Roberts

David Roberts was born in New York City. Growing up in the same city that made Frank Sinatra, famous, David's blue eyes and lean look, made it easy to slip into the chairman of the board/rat pack impersonator style. Although it took some time to cultivate the swing/big band style of Ol' Blue Eyes, the sophisticated music roots were being formed during David's early years in New York City. David currently lives in Florida where he croons weekly at a variety of venues and events.

Refresh Your Financial Plan: An Educational Course for Ages 55+

 

Making your money last throughout retirement has never been more challenging. People are living longer, and fewer retirees have traditional pensions. In recent years, the volatility of the stock and bond markets has been high and interest rates paid by the banks have been low. While most retirees are covered by Social Security, this program also faces financial challenges. This course will help you develop a personalized retirement income plan and help you reassess your current financial situation.

 

Whether your objective is to become more active, give your life a new sense of purpose, or make more informed financial decisions, Refresh Your Financial Plan has something for everyone. This comprehensive course covers key issues faced by those in retirement or nearing retirement. Discover new ways to stay mentally, physically, and socially active, and learn about important financial topics such as tax reduction planning, investment risk management, and estate planning. Above all, discover how to apply this knowledge to pursue a more active, healthy, and financially secure lifestyle now or in retirement.

 

Course Topics Include:

•    Deciding whether you should convert your IRA to a Roth IRA.

•    Identifying the primary threats to your retirement savings.

•    Planning your retirement income to preserve a comfortable lifestyle.
