Loyola University and Loyola University Employee Federal Credit Union

For close to two decades we have been hosting financial and pre-retirement educational workshops on behalf of Loyola University Human Resource Department and Loyola University Employees Federal Credit Union.  The focus of our workshops is to help educate employees on the preparatory steps that should be taken to help ensure a financially independent retirement.

"In working with employees over the years, I have found that many employees are confused and paralyzed when it comes to doing retirement or financial planning. There have been so many benefit and legislation changes over the years that they often don't know where to begin. One of the most rewarding events for me as a financial advisor is to work with employees and design strategies to help reduce their anxiety by preparing a financial blueprint of their situation. This blueprint incorporates our spending distribution model that strives to give the employees a snapshot of their financial picture today, and through retirement.  By including all the benefit pieces such as social security, pension, LUERP, and 403B we are able to come up with a common denominator that helps to combine all of these pieces together.  After the blueprint has been reviewed our goal is to have all employees have a clearer view of their current financial picture and retirement cash flow.  I often hear that people feel like the fog has been lifted and that they feel more at ease” - Joseph Schoenhardt
