AARP Hawai’i holding free financial strategies conference in Hilo

Big Island residents looking to strengthen their future are invited to attend AARP Hawaiʻi’s free “Financial Strategies for Older Adults” conference in Hilo.

The half-day event, running from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., on Oct. 18 at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Keali‘i Lopez, AARP Hawa‘i State director, said: “Financial security is key if people want to live the life they choose as they age.”

The gathering will feature expert-led sessions on topics including investment adjustments for retirement, protecting against scams, tax-saving strategies, Medicare and long-term care planning, and estate management.

Organizers say the goal is to help older adults make their money last as long as they can by providing practical, easy-to-understand guidance for managing finances through every stage of aging.

“You don’t have to be an AARP member or of AARP age to attend, and we’re not
going to be selling any financial products,” added Lopez.
