MICPA Offers Free Financial Scrapbooking Session at Tecumseh District Library

    TECUMSEH, MI, March 30, 2017 /24-7PressRelease/ -- MICPA is offering a series of statewide presentations on financial scrapbooking during April, including one at the Tecumseh District Library, 215 N Ottawa St., Tecumseh on April 24 at 6:30 p.m. with Amber K. Gray, CPA and assistant professor at Adrian College.

A financial scrapbook provides a single location for all-important records, such as insurance policies, retirement accounts, investments and other financial documents. Done well, a financial scrapbook offers comprehensive insights into a person's financial situation and is a launching pad for future planning, emergency preparedness or end-of-life arrangements.

These classes leverage MICPA's financial expertise and are free to the public. They give attendees the tools to translate complex information into a concrete and concise snapshot of their financial affairs. It is important to have a clear understanding of personal finances, and financial scrapbooking is designed to address common issues, prepare for potential problems and identify resources.

"We want to encourage people to take time to understand their finances," said Wayne B. Titus III, chair of the MICPA financial literacy task force. "Creating a financial scrapbook means you'll have the tools to not only understand your finances but also shape your financial future. These documents will be invaluable in emergency situations as well, allowing your family to have access to all critical documents in one central spot."
