Join us as we launch Smart Woman Securities, a national organization focused on financially empowering collegiate women, with our first event on Wednesday February 25th, from 6:30 - 8:00 p.m. in the Mason School of Business Room 1088. Robin Wilcox, a Vice President from Wells Fargo Advisors, will be answering all of these questions and more, as she shares her expertise on money management.
"Women, Wealth, and Trailblazing"
What is a mutual fund or a security? What is a 401(k) Plan?How do I make sure I can retire comfortably?
Although these are not questions frequently asked by college students, they become a central focus once students move into the “real world.” Join us on March 25th for our second event in financial education for undergraduate women. At this event, we will discuss the relationship that people have with their money, common behavioral pitfalls associated with investing and financial management, and the fundamentals of a successful investment portfolio. The event will cover: Behavioral Finance, Budgeting Basics, Stocks/Bonds/Mutual funds, Retirement Plans, and Portfolio Theory.
Featuring Guests: Sherri Powers, Ben Sadtler, and Peter Gore of Gore Capital Management LLC
