NEW CANAAN, Conn., Oct. 4, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- HTG Investment Advisors Inc., a New Canaan, CT-based independent investment advisory firm, has confirmed Alan Critchell as the guest speaker for the October 18th installment of the Fall 2011 Financial Focus Series. Mr. Critchell, VP of American Century Investments, will present "Yes, You Can Raise Financially Aware Kids" to help parents teach children the essential principles to live a financially prudent life. The event will be held at 10 a.m. on Tuesday, October 18th at HTG's offices at 50 Locust Avenue, New Canaan.
"Mr. Critchell presented this topic in last fall's Financial Focus Series. His presentation was so well-received we asked him to return and address parents who may feel anxious when it comes to raising financially accountable children. Mr. Critchell offers an engaging, open format for parents to share their stories, ask questions and develop a strategy for teaching their children the basics about money," said HTG's Senior Advisor, Barbara Ollinger, CFP®.
"Regardless of one's age, the state of the economy should inspire us all to exercise the four pillars of personal finance: earning, spending, saving, and investing. When these principles are properly taught – even to a young child – parents can undoubtedly raise their children to live within their means and become financially-responsible members of society," said Mr. Critchell.
The final seminar in the fall series is set for November 29th and will feature Ms. Janice Kunst, CPA of Reynolds & Rowella LLP, and her presentation, "Playing Offense through Strategic Tax Planning." The Financial Focus Series is open to the public at no charge. To register for the October 18th presentation, or for more information on the upcoming seminar, please contact Ms. Susannah Hansley at Susannah@htgadvisors.com or 203.972.8262. Space is limited.
