Shreve Memorial Library Offers Free Financial Education Seminars

Tax day has come and gone, and many of us are still suffering from shock. If you're like thousands of people, you may not have any sort of financial plan. Recent studies show that up to half of all Americans have no plan for their financial future, and without a savings plan, many people spend outside of their budgets.

Believe it or not, a solid financial plan will save you tons of money in the long run. Who wants to retire with no money left to enjoy the golden years?

The Shreve Memorial Library is holding FREE financial education seminars to help people manage their personal finances. The classes will be held during Money Smart Week, April 23 - 30, 2016.

From The Shreve Memorial Library:

Money Smart Week® is a public awareness campaign designed to help consumers better manage their personal finances. Shreve Memorial Library is hosting three seminars. Representatives with Ouachita Independent Bank will present Tips for Saving and Budgeting on Tuesday, April 26 at Hamilton South Caddo Branch at 2:00 pm. On Thursday, April 28 at 2:00 pm representatives of Shreveport Federal Credit Union will present Money Matter at Cedar Grove-Line Avenue, and again, at 3:00pm at Hollywood/Union Avenue Branch.
