Many people look forward to retirement and the idea of not having to get up and go to work each morning.   Unfortunately, some people neglect to truly “plan” for retirement.  If you are serious about wanting to have a fulfilling and problem-free retirement, participate in Calvert Library’s “Retire Gracefully” series.  The series is offered the first Thursday of September through December at 7pm at Calvert Library Prince Frederick. 

 

            Thursday, September 6, features estate planning attorney and "Your Money Matters" columnist Lyn Striegel who will share her tips on the basics of estate planning.  She has over thirty years of legal experience related to finance and estates.  Among other things, she will talk about wills, living trusts, power-of-attorney, and living wills.  On Thursday, October 4, Julie Schejbal will help take the fear out of managing issues with dementia, Alzheimer’s and nursing homes.   Prior to entering private practice where she concentrates on estate planning, retirement planning, estate administration, business planning and taxation, she worked as an attorney for the Internal Revenue Service in the estate and gift tax division.  She will teach you what you need to know about elder care—spend downs for Medicare purposes, asset preservation, guardianship, conservatorship and long-term care issues.   Lyn Striegel will be back on November 1 to talk about what kind of investments you need and what you should avoid, as well as help you figure out just how prepared for retirement you are.  The final workshop on Thursday, December 6 will cover choosing a healthy retirement lifestyle, with ideas for a socially, emotionally, and physically healthy retirement. 

 

These workshops are free and open to the public.  Registration is requested but not required.  For more information, call the Calvert Library Prince Frederick at 410-535-0291 or 301-855-1862 or check the website at calvert.lib.md.us
