It's been interesting to see how different speakers approach the issues and concerns that seniors have. Some are very dull, and some have a great sense of humor and gain your attention by telling you about their families, that way they connect with the audience.
One line that made an impression on me was:
"You are all members of the "P" (for procastinators) club, "Information is only as good as what you do with it so let's make an appointment with my firm. What's the best day for you?"My response to that is,"I'm a snowbird and am leaving town soon."
Over time I have picked up some helpful information about investing. One thing that I have figured out is, don't invest in something that you don't understand! The salesman doesn't necessarily know what is best for you.
It's good for him, he gets a commission on the sale!
No more free lunches for me, It's not worth the hassle.
This will probably be my last post for a while. Once I get settled, I'll be back on-line with an update on what's going on in the sunshine state.
Happy holidays to my readers and fellow bloggers, stay well, stay warm and enjoy!
