January's class will cover the basics of budgeting, banking and credit, and then build on the basics with an introduction to understanding investments and planning for retirement.

Two classes are offered: 11am CT and 2pm CT.

Based on recent legislation passed, veterans of many different eras and their survivors are now potentially eligible for compensation benefits. If you served in Vietnam, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Guam, or American Samoa during the Vietnam era or served in the Gulf from 1990 to the present, the new legislation has expanded eligibility for compensation benefits for veterans and their survivors as a result of certain exposures.
