Finding Gold in the Teachers' Lounge: Lessons of Financial Independence for Everyone

Nov 13, 2024
8:30 am - 11:30 am

Regional Office of Education #3 PD Center

We do not become educators to become wealthy, but that doesn’t mean we can’t become wealthy being educators. For far too long, we have said or heard that education is not lucrative. We become exacerbated by living paycheck to paycheck. And while each situation is unique to the individual, oftentimes, securing financial freedom is as simple as making a couple minimal life changes to gain control. Of course, financial freedom and building substantial wealth doesn’t come without hard work and dedication. 

 

For too many years I have done everything wrong when it comes to money. Extended debt. Worried about the time between paychecks. Bad investments. Or worse, no investments. Thankfully, through lessons of discipline, I was able to find financial freedom by utilizing the not-so-secret tricks to build and accumulate wealth. Drawing upon financial principles that are decades old, Finding Gold in the Teachers’ Lounge helps individuals discover what changes they can make to find financial freedom. 

 

This workshop will not get a person out of debt or make them wealthy immediately; however, participants will learn to navigate how to become debt free, start personal retirement accounts, learn more in depth information on their pensions and other retirement vehicles, and how they can leverage expendable income with sensible investment tools. Many of the tactics are beyond simple, but that doesn’t mean it is beyond easy.

 

E. Scott England will be the presenter. He recently published the book called Finding Gold in the Teachers' Lounge: Lessons of Financial Independence for Everyone

 

This training will be held on November 13, 2024 from 8:30 a.m. - 11:30 a.m. at the ROE #3 Professional Development Center. Registration will begin at 8:00 a.m. The cost to attend this training is $25/person and a light breakfast will be provided. Each participant will receive 3.0 PD hours upon completion of the training.
