Online Course Reveals Practical Insights into Personal Finance, Saving, and Investing
Financial expert will teach an online course on personal finance to help individuals save more, invest wisely, and grow their retirement nest eggs.
SANTA BARBARA, CA, August 06, 2010 /Personal Finance PR News/ -- Millions of baby boomers have watched the stock market's gyrations drain their retirement savings and are looking for safer ground. Workers in their 20s and 30s are wondering how to save for the future with near-zero interest rates. An online course taught by financial planning expert Chuck Weinstein and offered at KSURF Webversity will give small investors straight talk and practical insights into the best ways to protect and grow their savings and investments.
"I have spent over 26 years as a financial advisor, working with a wide variety of individuals and businesses helping them protect their assets and provide for the future," says Mr. Weinstein. "Personal finance is a combination of discipline and knowledge. I can't provide discipline, but I can share knowledge of how to keep what you have, build it up, and protect yourself, your family, and your business against the effects of dying too young or living too long."
"How to Save and Invest Wisely" is an e-course that is taught completely online using KSURF's modern virtual university platform. The course covers a variety of topics related to investing, stocks, bonds, savings, and asset preservation. Participants are provided with in-depth course materials and a classroom discussion board where they can share learning projects and ask questions of Mr. Weinstein.
Topics covered in the course include stocks, bonds, mutual funds, 401Ks, IRAs, annuities, Keogh plans, insurance, and practical money tips for savers and investors. The course consists of 14 fact-filled modules as well as interactive quizzes and an optional final exam for participants desiring a formal grade in the course. Those who complete the class can earn CEU credits. While most e-learning sites charge for CEUs, KSURF issues and records these credits free of charge.
The course is affordably priced at $20 and no textbook is required. Enrollment is ongoing. Unlike a traditional classroom, there is no waiting for classes to begin - students can enroll and start learning the same day. The instructor's "office" is open 24/7 and learners can work at their own pace in their spare time from the comfort of their home or office.
Chuck Weinstein, CLU, ChFC, LUTCF, has been a financial advisor since 1984. Working with individuals and businesses, he has designed retirement and estate plans involving insurance and investment products for a wide variety of clients. He is licensed to sell all types of insurance and securities products in New York and California. He has been a trainer of insurance agents for over 15 years and has taught university courses for the general public on personal financial planning and business continuation planning.
Mr. Weinstein says he teaches because he enjoys sharing knowledge with anyone who wants to learn more about financial matters. He says he has the ability to break down complicated subjects into easy to understand bites. A native of Los Angeles, and long time resident of the San Francisco Bay area, he currently lives in Deer Park, New York, in the heart of Long Island.
