NEW! The Keys to Good
Credit
Take Control of Your Credit
Your credit score impacts your
employability, purchasing power, and future
security. Many people drag low credit scores
around like badges of shame that they’re
powerless to shed. This practical and
information-packed seminar will help you let
go of shame and take control. Learn what
credit scores are, their value, how they are
used, and how they impact your financial
life. Find out how credit is created and how
you can improve, as well as damage, your
credit. Discuss how identity theft affects
credit. Participants are encouraged to
bring their own credit score printed out
from Experian, Credit Karma, or other site/
source. However, sample credit scores will
be provided for discussion.

Women & Wealth
It’s Different for Women
Women often
earn less than
men, participate
in the work
force less time
than men, and
statistically
live longer than
men. Women
are often alone
in retirement;
some never marry, are divorced, or are
widowed early on (the average age for a
widow is 56). Since women live longer in
retirement, with less in savings, and more
often alone, it’s no wonder many secretly
fear becoming a “bag lady!” If you’re a
woman age 40 or more and are concerned
about your financial future, this is the class
for you! Topics will include Social Security,
IRAs, ROTHs, 401Ks, Wills, Living Trusts,
and more. You’ll learn about important
financial considerations you need to know to
help create a secure financial future.

Evaluating Mutual Funds
and ETFs
Congratulations! You have a deferred
retirement account! Now you need to select
which are the best choices of mutual funds
or ETF’s to put your money into. This class
is for you. This class will help you make
informed choices about fund selections,
based on your objectives and risk tolerance.
We will look at how to screen for funds, what
criteria to enter into a screener, and how to
evaluate the results. Using Morningstar data
sheets, we will look at metrics on individual

information provided. We will look at the
importance of diversification in selecting
different funds, and examples of diversified
portfolios will be given for various risk
levels. Class is taught by
Ralph Futch
