A pension can provide a strong foundation.

But most educators will still face important decisions:

• Inflation

• Healthcare costs

• Retirement timing

• Supplemental savings

• Legacy planning

A pension is an important piece of the puzzle.

It's just not the entire puzzle.

What questions do you have about retirement as an educator?

The biggest financial mistake I made as a teacher wasn't a bad investment.

It was waiting.

Waiting to learn.

Waiting to save.

Waiting to create a plan.

Like many educators, I assumed I would eventually "figure it out."

The reality is that small financial decisions made early in your career can have a huge impact later.

If I could go back and give my younger teacher self one piece of advice, it would be:

Start earlier than you think you need to.

What's one piece of financial advice you'd give your younger self?

Nobody Teaches Teachers This

Teachers spend years learning how to educate others.

Almost nobody teaches educators how to manage their own financial future.

Things like:

✅ How TRS really works

✅ Choosing the right 403(b) plan

✅ Preparing financially for summers

✅ How to build wealth beyond a pension

That's something I'm hoping to change.

📚 Educators: Are You Planning to Retire in the Next 5 Years?

If you're a teacher or counselor wondering:

• How do I maximize my TRS benefits?
• What about Social Security?
• Is my 403(b) actually helping me close the income gap?
• Am I really on track to retire when I want to?

Join us for an Educator Retirement Roundtable — a small-group session designed specifically for local educators.

🗓 Feb 26 | Mar 26 | Apr 23 @ 6pm
📍 KWS Financial Group – Edinburg
🍽 Light snacks provided
👥 Limited to 10 per session

This isn’t a sales seminar. It’s a practical, strategy-focused discussion to help you understand your options and feel confident about your retirement timeline.

👉 Register here:

Educators often worry about gaps between their TRS pension and real retirement expenses. At our workshop, you’ll learn strategies to close that gap, coordinate Social Security and TRS benefits, and understand your health‑care options.
