My name Ronda Peterson, I’m a financial education professional with the Missouri Deferred Compensation Plan. Saving for retirement through the Missouri Deferred Comp Plan is important because it will help you supplement your pension, so you have that rainy day fund to rely on. One piece of information that all employees should know is the value of their retirement system. It’s a huge fringe benefit. Many of us are going to spend more years in retirement that we did during our careers, so it’s good to be prepared and to plan ahead. My favorite part of being an education professional is actually sitting down with the participants. It’s really rewarding knowing that I’m helping them, and their families reach retirement security. Contact me at 573-644-1264 or rondap@mosers.org, and I’ll be happy to help you prepare for retirement.
