Learn how to make your money last throughout retirement. This informative session covers key decisions and strategies to help you enjoy a secure, worry-free future.

The ultimate goal of retirement is to make sure your money lasts as long as you do. Many decisions we make at retirement age will affect us for the rest of our lives - having all the information available is the best way to ensure a more relaxing, worry-free retirement.

Afterwards, drop-in one-on-one sessions will be available for personalized guidance—sign up on-site for a time slot. Attend just the presentation, the one-on-one session, or both—whatever works best for you!

Presented by Kathryn Ruuska, financial professional and insurance agent at Bankers Life.

Bankers Life has been around for over a hundred and forty years. Our goal is to make sure our clients know they are well taken care of, that they have an instant resource for many of our clients' questions.  To that end, we assist in every aspect of retirement, from Medicare education to financial planning.  Our motto is "For the Life of Your Retirement".
