Financial Advisor Launches Seminar Series on How to Finance Raising Your Child

In June, National Financial Network Financial Advisor Lisa Macbeth launched Financing Baby, a series of seminars introducing families to the ins and outs of financial planning. Anyone, from first-time moms and dads to multi-child parents of any socioeconomic background, is welcome to attend. Financing Baby seminars are held once a month across various neighborhoods in New York.

It wasn’t until Macbeth, veteran financial expert with twenty years of experience, became a first-time mother that she finally understood the stress many parents experience when it comes to their finances. Financing Baby emerged out of her new passion: to help families navigate the confusing–and at times conflicting–literature on financial planning.

“This is the first step to getting this information to the people who need it the most,” says Macbeth.

In each two-day session, Macbeth covers crucial financial topics parents must know when it comes to raising their children, including what happens if a family member becomes ill, how to pay for school and college, how to transfer wealth, how to take advantage of the various tax deductions available, and life insurance and estate planning.
