After Work Friends of Virginia

After hosting successful events, I always think that we could have done better and relate it to our day to day life and make it educational. In this connection, I wanted to show off my investment and trade hat and organize series of Happy Hours around Investment & Trade.

We will have speakers from different sectors and industries, at each Happy Hour. At this particular event, the speakers will discuss Avoiding Big Mistakes When Saving For Retirement.

Topics will include:

• The Effect of Inflation on the value of a dollar

• Proper Investment Allocation

• Underestimating the Effect of Taxes

• Underestimating Spending During Retirement

• Unrealistic Investment Expectations

• Underestimating Time Spent in Retirement

• Mismanaging Tax-Deferred Assets

• Unexpected Health-Care Expenses

The address will be sent to members who RSVPed, before the Event.

Enjoy!

Many of you might have already figured out my French connection by my name or you might run into my Francophone friends on our events and they try to speak to you in French:)

I wanted to throw a party at the French Embassy, in collaboration with the Embassy and The French-American Chamber of Commerce (to which I am proudly a member); to show you around France and French culture.

• We will meet and socialize with French professionals, business people and diplomates at the Event

• Buffet Campagnard (Typical french style finger food buffet) prepared by the Embassy's chefs will be served

• We will have an Open Bar featuring French wines & drinks.
