In addition to his experience providing sophisticated financial advice to affluent clients, Michael has been a key source of information for over a decade to countless others. He speaks passionately about and provides guidance on virtually all personal financial planning topics.


As a true expert gifted in simplifying money matters, Michael is the "Guide to Retirement Planning" at About.com, a New York Times company and one of the web's leading producers of original content. Michael also writes the popular Beyond Paycheck to Paycheck blog.

Prior to founding Total Candor LLC, Michael worked in the personal financial services practices of two of the former “Big Six” accounting firms. Subsequently working for several years as a new venture executive for Toys “R” Us, Inc., he made sure that he never actually grew up.

It’s a New Decade and a New World of Lending

Dan Hebert. State President, NH Jump$tart Coalition

 The Credit CARD Act of 2009, which took effect in February, will—among other things—make it harder for young adults to obtain credit cards on their own. This session will explore the new regulations and help prepare you to answer the questions your students want to know about most. This workshop will also review how mortgages are funded and why the consumers of tomorrow—your students—need to understand the basics of this complex financial transaction.

“If I Knew Then What I Know Now”

Panel discussion from members of a Community Chapter of the Young Professional Network

High School Seniors from ten years ago are today’s young professionals. Hear what these young adults have to say about what they wished they had learned in school about basic money management. This interactive session will encourage questions from teachers on how we might be able to do things differently today.

 

PayDay Tournament

At our Financial Fitness Fair in January, we challenged parents and their teenagers to a game of Payday and it was received with great energy. We’ll finish the day with a tournament to determine our ultimate Payday champion teacher!
