**To what extent should you minimize the minimum retired distribution required of those over 70 and a half?
**What are some strategies for protecting the corpus of your 403b or IRA (for your spouse)?

We have invited two experts: Jermaine Guthrie, a certified financial planner at TIAA and Tamara Telesko, Director of Wealth Planning Strategies who is expert on legal and tax issues, to each present on legal and financial issues facing retirees and those planning for retirement, and then respond to questions and lead a discussion. (Note - this is not a TIAA event - but a general discussion of financial issues vital to each of us.) Our speakers will also discuss
legal issues
,
such as
how to protect a retiree, or a surviving spouse and her/his assets in the event of incapacitation, the use of unlimited power of attorney designations, the best arrangements for wills, how to assure that finances remain well managed after the death of the person who is most knowledgeable about finances, and what strategies can be used to assure that Medicare and Medicaid will cover nursing home expenses, if need be? Gifts to children? Creation of a trust?

No prior experience is required to join. Yoga can benefit people at all levels of physical training and health, but it is always wise to consult with a physician before undertaking any new exercise regime. Modifications will be offered to any participants with specific limitations arising from recovery from injury, arthritis, limited movement, or other causes.
Two one-hour classes are offered each week.
The
10:00 to 11:00 a.m.
class practices breathing techniques and moves through some basic yoga poses, concentrating on alignment, balance, and flexibility. Those with experience move more deeply into the poses.
From
11:15 a.m. to 12:15 p.m.
, we practice gentle/chair yoga, which is ideal for those of more limited mobility or flexibility. Classes include breathing, stretching, and yoga poses, done either seated in a chair or standing. No yoga mats are required for this class.
