Delaware Money School offers Retirement Planning Boot Camp in April

A series of free classes will be offered to the public Thursdays, April 13, 20 and 23, from 5:30 to 7 p.m., at the Lewes Public Library, 111 Adams Ave.

 The class covers retirement success, Social Security and investing in retirement. This three-part course is a detailed retirement planning seminar designed to educate those who are nearing retirement or who have recently retired. The sponsor, Delaware Money School, will provide free of charge, experienced and well-qualified instructor Robert Jeter, CRPC, to the public. Having written, spoken and taught on the subject many times, he will break down what appears to be a complex subject to simple, understandable layman's terms.

This class focuses on steps the lay person can take to increase the probabilities of a successful retirement. The goal is to help make people aware of the challenges in retirement and teach them suitable ways to overcome them. Jeter is a financial advisor offering securities and advisory services through Cetera Advisors LLC, member FINRA, SIPC.

The Money School is the signature program of the nonprofit Delaware Financial Literacy Institute. It offers more than 600 free, no-hassle personal finance classes a year, throughout the state, taught by volunteers from the nonprofit and corporate sectors. From Purses to Portfolios: Delaware Women Take Charge of Their Money, is a class that targets women's unique financial needs and seeks to empower them. Participants can enroll in this program, earning a certificate that demonstrates a commitment to financial education.
