?Subject: Financial Planning contact Message from Dr. Artzt on behalf of alum Chris DiDamo. Chris taught or tutored many math ed alumni. He is now a financial specialist but when he was a teacher, he had not thought about any of the things (see below) he should be worrying about. Now that he is in this field, he feels he could be of help to others. ************************************************************************************************************ I was recently speaking with Chris DiDamo who was a T9 graduate of TIME 2000. He was most recently an adjunct professor at Queens College and visiting lecturer at SUNY Maritime, and is now a financial specialist with National Financial Network (Guardian Life Insurance). We were discussing wealth building strategies in connections to our retirement plans. As a former teacher he realized there is a lack of education when it comes to preparing financially for our future. For example: * Life Insurance * Protecting against a sickness or injury * What happens if we were to be sued * Investments * Debt Management These are only a few examples on what Chris and his team can help with. I think this is really important to think about. Please be open to connecting with him over the next few weeks. You can contact Chris by either emailing him at christopher_didamo@natfin.net<mailto:christopher_didamo@natfin.net>, or by sending him a text or giving him a call on his cell phone (516)234-8823<tel:%28516%29234-8823>."
