Free Money Brunch Financial Fitness Day with CPAs on October 24

Bronx Chronicle

Everyone knows that the initial embarrassment of bouncing a check, or getting an “Insufficient Funds” message from an ATM, fades.  However, the cost of continued financial ignorance is lasting. Many people don’t have a firm grasp of, or teach their children about, money management, credit, debt, taxes or the basics of compound interest, investing or retirement planning. Members of the New York State Society of Certified Public Accountants (NYSSCPA) want more New Yorkers to Get Money Smart at their first-ever Money Brunch event to be held Saturday, October 24 at the Eagle Academy in the Bronx, 1413 Third Ave. from 10 a.m. – 2 p.m.
