WILL YOUR SAVINGS LAST?
How much income will you need to support the lifestyle you want to
live when you retire? While there’s no such thing as a one-size-fitsall strategy, there are steps you can take to greatly enhance your
probability of achieving a financially
secure retirement.

IS A ROTH IRA RIGHT FOR YOU?

distributions are generally free from federal income tax. However,
before deciding to convert to a Roth IRA, there are a number of
factors to consider.

determine when to begin receiving your Social Security retirement

AARP Smart Driver Safety Course
Why take a driver safety course? Because driving has changed
since you first got your
license, and doing so
could save you money!
Cars have changed.
So have traffic rules,
driving conditions and
the roads you travel
every day. Some
drivers 55+ have never
looked back since they got their first driver’s license, but even the
most experienced drivers can benefit from brushing up on their
driving skills. By taking a driver safety course you will learn the
current rules of the road, defensive driving techniques and how to
operate your vehicle more safely in today’s increasingly challenging
driving environment. You will learn how you can manage and
accommodate common age-related changes in vision, hearing and
reaction time. In addition, you will learn how to minimize the effects
of dangerous blind spots; how to maintain the proper following
distance behind another car; the safest ways to change lanes and
make turns at busy intersections; proper use of safety belts, air
bags, antilock brakes and new technology found in cars today; ways
to monitor your own and others’ driving skills and capabilities; the
effects of medications on driving; the importance of eliminating
distractions such as eating, smoking and using cell phones.
