Barrow to Host Financial Literacy Forum in Savannah |
Times are tough, but there are ways that folks can save money, get out of debt, and stay out of debt. Congressman Barrow wants to do what he can to help folks learn smart money techniques. That's why he's bringing together local experts to host a financial literacy forum in Savannah on Monday, October 19, 2009. The forum will be held from 12:00 p.m. to 1:30 p.m. at Savannah State University's King-Frazier Student Center Ballroom. This event is free and open to the public.
"This is a great time to get some tips on how to make your money go further right now, and how to plan for the future," said Barrow. "I hope folks will stop by and get some advice, and also learn how to steer clear of scams that cost more money than they're worth."
Throughout the forum there will be a series of presentations on managing credit, choosing a bank, and getting an early start on savings. Experts will be on hand to answer specific questions folks may have.
The following is a partial list of the participants in the forum:
