It's hard to believe it's time to get ready for the new school year. As you prepare for returning students, you should also think about preparing for your own financial future. Supplemental retirement plans offered in your district are one of the best places for you to set aside money for your future. Why participate? • Earnings in the account grow tax-deferred. • You determine how much you want deducted from your paycheck – which you can change at your convenience. • The contributions you make are saved through convenient, automatic payroll deductions – you won’t even miss them. • Any contributions you make are always 100% vested –so the money you save is always yours. Whether or not Horace Mann is an approved provider in your district's supplemental retirement plan,it ’s important that you participate to help prepare for a healthy financial future. Contact your local Horace Mann representative to get more information on how to help protect what you have today and achieve a more secure financial future.
