Free financial advice will be available to residents of Keller, TX for Financial Planning Week October 5-12, 2009. Many individuals and families are facing financial challenges or uncertainty right now. Retirement plans are shifting. Investments are volatile. Jobs are less secure. And debt is a bigger issue than ever. In this environment, people are hungry for reliable, objective financial advice.
Keener Financial Planning has partnered with the Greater Keller Chamber of Commerce to provide two informational
financial workshops at Keller Town Hall on Tuesday and Thursday evening, October 6 and 8 from 5 to 6:30 pm. Both workshops are free and open to the public. Tuesday evening’s topic is Financial Tranquility: Get Back to the Basics for a Stress-Free Financial Life. Thursday’s topic is 7 Mistakes Smart Investors Make and How to Avoid Them. There is limited space available, so attendees are encouraged to RSVP to info@keenerfinancial.com to reserve their seat. Light refreshments and door prizes will be provided.
Keener Financial Planning will also be offering Free Financial Advice Friday on October 9. I will be providing pro bono financial advice and coaching sessions all day at my office in Keller. Times will be by appointment on a first-come, first-serve basis. To participate in Free Financial Advice Friday, email info@keenerfinancial.com to request a time.
The purpose of Financial Planning Week is to raise awareness of the importance of financial planning in all of our lives and the value of getting objective advice to help you achieve your financial goals and dreams.
