Getting started with investing does not have to be intimidating–and it’s definitely not just for the wealthy! Join The Actors Fund and David Maurice Sharp, author of The Thriving Artist, for this informative and engaging webinar specifically designed for creative professionals.

Learn the elements of a sound financial plan, including assessing your comfort level with risk, the basics of different types of investments, and ideas for creating a portfolio with limited and varying income.  This webinar will also explore the pieces that comprise our later-life financial resources, including individual retirement accounts, social security income and Union pensions. David will demystify the jargon and help you understand how to begin (or continue!) to integrate wealth-building into your financial life, and what you need to know about investing amid the Covid-19 crisis.

Note: Attendance at both sessions is recommended but not required. The sessions may be attended in either order. If you are able to attend only one session, you are welcome to attend the other during a future offering.
