Round Table: Personal Finance
Nov. 15 – 4pm – BSB A.202 or Zoom
Do you own a retirement account (of any type)?
Do you know what an HSA is and when to get one?
Do you have any sort of S&P500 or market wide tracking fund or ETF somewhere in one of those accounts?
If you said no to at least one of those questions, let’s not panic, but maybe a bit, just enough to mark Monday 4pm on your calendar because you’ll need that session!
BUPA is there for you! BUPA doesn’t want you working at 85, and in debt! You’ll thank BUPA later :p
The round table will be held as a hybrid Zoom/in-person meeting:

And no, being a foreigner doesn’t give you a pass: if you are here for more than 6 months, you need this talk too!
Halloween Party
October 30 – starting at 6pm
BUPA is organizing a Halloween Party on October the 30th, starting at 6pm.
Don Hood has volunteered his backyard and fire pit to host us: thanks Don!!
Address is: 1039 Cardinal Drive, Waco
Family, +1, friends, etc. are welcome!
BUPA will provide grilled meat, lemonade and all one needs to make S’mores. Feel free to bring a side, a dessert or drinks, then dress up and come hang around the fire pit with us.
But please don’t let the lack of food to bring or costume to wear stop you. Just come either way: it’s all about meeting each other!
