Wealth and Poverty | Career Talk on What is Wealth? Can I Get There? Nov. 8

Alan J. McMilla

The Wealth and Poverty theme hosts a career talk by Alan J. McMillan for Ohio University students on Wednesday, Nov. 8, at 5 p.m. in Alden 319 (Friends of the Library room).

McMillan will discuss “What is Wealth? Can I Get There? From There Can I Change the World? 6 Steps to Secure Your Financial Freedom.”

The talk is open to the public.

Abstract: As students plot their initial career choice from college, it would be wise to pause and discuss what are their true long term goals. Ultimately, we do not live to work, rather work to live the lifestyle we are dreaming about. In this session, we will examine the previous generation, the Baby Boomers, and use them as a case study to reveal what the future might look like. From there, we will outline a process and a path, so today’s students can arrive at financial independence over time. We will present a six-point plan to best position them for a strong financial future, and ultimately their freedom, with financial independence.
