These Arizona community seminars are open to the public and offered free of charge, reflecting Matt’s belief that financial education should be accessible to everyone.
Financial literacy for seniors is more important than ever. With longer lifespans, evolving tax laws, and increasing healthcare costs, retirees need to stay informed to protect their financial security and make their savings last.
From Matt Dages’ perspective, financial literacy is more than just being able to understand the numbers. True financial literacy empowers people to take control of their finances and futures. When retirees understand how their retirement accounts work, how taxes impact their income, and what options are available to them, they gain the confidence to make decisions that align with their goals and values.
Too often, financial information is presented in confusing jargon or hidden behind paywalls. Matt is committed to changing that through retirement income workshops, retirement planning classes Arizona residents can attend, and ongoing community education efforts.
