Northwestern Mutual Chairman and CEO John Schlifske has partnered with Steve Forbes, chairman and editor-in-chief of Forbes Media, on a speaking tour of two cities this week called “The Power of a Game Plan.”
The pair are speaking on the economy, financial markets and financial planning in St. Louis and Omaha. They have partnered since 2010 to speak in more than 30 cities.
Their key insights include: Getting to retirement is no longer the end goal, but a starting point; Investing alone will not lead to prosperity; Put a plan in place now to assure long-term security.
“It’s clear that achieving financial security today requires thoughtful planning to preserve wealth, reduce risks, and provide a predictable stream of income for life,” Schlifske said. “These events provide a great opportunity to share perspective on how people can tap into the power of a solid game plan. We offer these insights to help families, business owners and students plan for financial security in the midst of a still uncertain economy.”
