Join us on Tuesday, March 5 at The Presbyterian Home in Evanston to learn how today’s women are having a real impact on estate planning and the distribution of assets
While important to both sexes, estate planning often affects women more profoundly. Women live longer on average and tend to marry older spouses, making them three times as likely as men to be widowed at 65. So for women, estate planning is a crucial part of retirement planning. And since they usually survive their spouses, women more often have the last word about how much wealth goes to family, charity or taxes.
Brown bag lunch and networking from 11:30-12 followed by a short business meeting. The formal program begins at 12:15 and ends at 1:30.
