2 Page 2 Many uses of life insurance Member Spotlight Most of us buy life insurance to replace the loss of income that would occur should we die or to create an estate for our loved ones, but there are many other reasons: People depend on you you have an aging parent or disabled relative who depends on you for support Retirement needs your retirement savings and pension won t be enough to support your family Ramona Dunbar Estate planning you have a large estate and expect to owe estate taxes Joint debt you have a substantial joint financial obligation, such as a personal loan for which another person would be legally responsible after your death If you own a business you may wish to consider life insurance for: Key person life insurance can be used to help protect a business from the loss of income and profits caused by the death of a key employee Business continuation life insurance can be used to help fund a buy/sell agreement or stock redemption plan to enable a partner or group of employees to buy the business interest of a deceased partner Business loans insurance on a key employee or business owner can be used to pay off or help pay down the debts of a business in the event of that individual s death Prepare for the unexpected I can help you analyze your individual situation so you can determine your life insurance requirements and be sure your coverage is appropriate for your needs and your family.

3 Page 3 What Professional Women Should Know About Their Financial Future Courtesy of: Pamela Edwards Branch Name: Morgan Stanley Smith Barney Brea, CA Phone Number: Address: Pamela.Edwards@mssb.com What Professional Women Should Know About Their Financial Future Anticipate that you are likely to live a long life. And plan accordingly. In fact, according to U.S. Census Bureau statistics, a woman who reaches age 50 today without serious health problems can anticipate celebrating her 92nd birthday. Women in the United States, on average, will live to reach 81.1 years of age, compared with men s life expectancy of just So if you ve always left money matters to your husband, start learning why you need to know how to manage on your own. Beware of being overly conservative in your investments. While there is a correlation between your age and the amount of risk you should assume when investing, being too conservative can seriously erode the value of a retirement account. You may need to rely on this money for 30 years or more. That s why you should think of retirement as a long-term investment. Consider keeping a significant portion of your portfolio in stocks, as long a possible. Pay yourself first. Invest for your future now. By investing systematically over a period of time, you will be surprised how fast your nest egg can grow. Hypothetically, if at age 25 you began investing about $5,000 per year ($417 per month) and earned an 8% return, you could build a nest egg of about $1.3 million at age 65. Choose an IRA that s right for you. Take advantage of complimentary IRA and pension calculators, or ask your Financial Advisor to run a calculator for you, to compare the projected results of contributing to different types of accounts, including transferring assets from a traditional IRA to a Roth IRA. Fund your IRA, 401(k) or other employer-sponsored program to the maximum. You can build up a good portion of your retirement savings if you contribute the maximum allowable amount into deferred income plans, such as a 401(k). You will you reduce your current taxable income, and the tax-deferred compounding feature of these plans allows you to accumulate more than you would in a comparable account that taxes earnings each year. Remember this special Social Security tip: Even if you are divorced, you are entitled to half of your ex-spouse s Social Security benefits if you are 62 or older, were married for at least 10 years and have not remarried. 2 A widow, as long as she doesn t remarry before age 60, is entitled to at least 71.5% of her husband s Social Security benefits. If she waits until full retirement age, she is entitled to 100%. For more information on your particular circumstances, call the Social Security Administration at If you are employed and decide to switch jobs, check your complete benefits package, including the portability and vesting rules of your retirement plan. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that, on average, working women over age 25 switch jobs every 4.8 years. 3 This job-change frequency often limits the growth of retirement plan assets due to vesting requirements typically set at five years. Investigate your employer s tuition reimbursement benefits. In the Employee Benefit Research Institute s 2011 Retirement Confidence Survey, 74% of workers said they expected to work for pay in retirement. 4 Going back to school to develop secondary employment skills or to learn a new field can be a tremendous benefit if you choose to make a career or job change at a later date.

5 In Memoriam Our Dear Beloved BWN Sister and Past BWN President Bayyinah Ali-Shotwell On December 18, 2011, we lost our dear beloved BWN sister Bayyinah Ali-Shotwell after a lengthy illness. Bayyinah Ali-Shotwell had been a BWN member since She has been a faithful BWN member for 31 years. Bayyinah Ali- Shotwell had been one of BWN s greatest Historian and was President of BWN in 1993 and 1994 as well as Chairperson of Community and Public Relations Committee for many years. Bayyinah Ali- Shotwell was known in BWN as our Queen of Networking. She was the BWN sister that was the most helpful in sharing information with other BWN sisters and being supportive and a nurturing sister to other upcoming presidents in Black Women s Network. When you think of BWN and the true meaning of Sisterhood and Networking if you had the pleasure and honor of knowing her Bayyinah Ali-Shotwell comes into your mind. Bayyinah was truly loved and will be greatly missed. Rest in Peace My Dear BWN Sister. Sheila S. Johnson 2012 BWN President Food for Thought
