Accounting instructor Michael Farina will speak to members of the Board of Accounting Club about investment options during a seminar titled, “Investment Options 101” on April 26 in Room SS 140.
The seminar will be divided into three parts and they are:
? Introduction to investing? Retirement planning ? Mutual funds
Among the questions that will be answered by Farina are:
? What investment options are right for you? Do you know the difference between a CD account, 401K and mutual funds? ? Do you have enough money set aside for future personal finances?
Much like Crystal Connelly,a USC representative who discussed ways to enroll at the prestigious college despite the cost of tuition on March 8, members of the board of accounting club say that this presentation will benefit Cerritos students.
David Briggs, president of the accounting club, said that it will teach students the basic concept of investing and how to utilize money for one’s own future.
Carl Jones, club secretary, explained that there was more to it than what it’s in the title.
“I’m excited because it will give me (as well as other students who attend) the opportunity to have a better understanding of what it means to invest.”
In addition, she hopes to include the information learned at the seminar in a portfolio.
Roberto Molina, club treasurer, agreed but there was more to the presentation than just information about investments. He also wants to learn about clarifications in regard to saving money.
For those who don’t know what it is to save he commented that with what Farina talks about with clarify when investing saved money.
Farina said he looks forward to helping students understand what it is to investing because that is why the presentation is titled, “Investment Options 101.”
The Board of Accounting club meets the 1st and 3rd Thursdays of the month is Room SS 313.
