Dear Community Partner,

Everyone knows they should be setting aside money for emergencies, retirement and financial goals, but many people still struggle to do it. Often, people say they'll focus on saving and investing when they have fewer bills, higher income, or nothing else they need the money for. But for many, that day never comes, and procrastinators inevitably find themselves without the savings they need to achieve their goals and financial security. While saving and investing can sometimes seem like a daunting task, there are simple steps everyone can take now to ramp up their wealth-building and make strides toward a stronger financial future.

Join Consumer Action on Thursday, Dec. 7, for our virtual train-the-trainer "Saving and Investing for Long-term Prosperity." The webinar panel of speakers will include John Moses, deputy director of the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission’s (SEC) Office of Investor Education and Advocacy (OIEA); Dylan Bruce, financial services counsel for the Consumer Federation of America; and Richard Eisenberg, personal finance writer and editor and co-host of the “Friends Talk Money” podcast.

This train-the-trainer will cover:

Building financial security and wealth through a lifetime of saving and investing
Key investing concepts, such as diversification and compound growth
Passive vs. active investing
Understanding types of investments and investment fees
How to make wise investment choices and avoid financial fads and scams
Who needs a financial advisor, how to choose one, and related consumer protections

DATE/TIME: Thursday, Dec. 7, at 10:00 a.m. PT (11:00 a.m. MT; 12:00 p.m. CT; 1:00 p.m. ET)
