We had over 100 par cipants take part in the parade, 20+ vendors at our holiday market, and countless families who came out to kick o the Holiday Season. We would like to Thank the Town of Liberty for their support with this huge undertaking. We could not have done it without the help of our Town o cials, the Liberty Police Department, the Liberty Fire Department, and of course our gracious sponsors!

Planning pays in retirement Personal savings are key to living comfortably Michael doesn’t see himself living on the beach when he retires, but he’d like to vacation there with his wife. He worries he isn’t saving enough in the 401(k) account he has at work, but he isn’t sure what more he can manage with two kids, a mortgage and credit cards.

Michael faces two dilemmas: Saving enough money for a comfortable retirement, and making those savings last his lifetime. Like most Americans, having money in retirement may depend on part-time jobs, personal savings and tax-advantaged retirement savings accounts.

A financial representative can help people like Michael understand their options, such as 401(k) and 403(b) plans, annuities, and individual retirement accounts (IRAs).

The key is to set goals and get started. The longer you wait to start saving, the more you will have to save to reach those goals.

I can help you plan for life.
