AFA Conference Call for Spouses

Date: Friday 1/24/20 at 1:30pm ET.
Location: Conference Call

AFA’s Pilot-Clients are familiar with our Financial Planning team and the services we provide. In many cases, spouses or significant others may not be familiar with our team and/or financial planning services. AFA hosts regular conference calls for spouses, significant others and interested family members. During these calls we address financial planning items important to the spouses of AFA’s Pilot-Clients. Time is made available for Q&A to let your family members know that we are available to assist them with any financial planning questions they may have. Spouses are often not directly involved in major financial decisions but could find themselves having to make these decisions with little or no time to prepare (in case of an unexpected death of the pilot-client) or having to take care of the pilot-client (due to illness or accident) while also being responsible for financial decisions. During 2019 this happened to several spouses of AFA’s Pilot-Clients. These Conference Calls are hosted by Leslie Kelly, CFP®, AIF® and Joannie Morales, who are members of AFA’s Survivor Support team. We hope you will share this information with your spouses or significant others. We look forward to having them join AFA’s Conference Call. To join the conference call, dial 866-287-8600 and enter code 78321#.
