2023 In-Person & Virtual Workshops SAVINGS & INVESTMENTS
FEDERAL EMPLOYEE RETIREMENT SYSTEM
THRIFT SAVINGS PLAN (PFR)
When you save, you are usually able to pull that money out when you need it (or after a period of time). When you invest, you have the potential for better long-term gains or rewards, but also the potential for loss. You risk more in investing for a larger return, but your potential loss can be large as well.
Federal civilian employees who have retirement coverage are covered by FERS. FERS is a retirement plan that provides benefits from three different sources: a Basic Benefit Plan, Social Security and the Thrift Savings Plan (TSP). This workshop will provide detailed information on FERS.
Participants (civilian and service members) will learn how TSP contributions work, the difference between traditional and Roth contributions, and how to manage their accounts throughout their careers.
In-Person: 8 May, 14 August, November from 10:00-11:00 A.M.
ZOOM Date: 13 March at 10:00 A.M.
In-Person: 10 April, 10 July, 16 October from 10:00-11:00 A.M.
Zoom Link will be sent once you register.
In-Person: 12 June, 10 September, 11 December from 10:00-11:00 A.M.
