Stop in during your lunch. It will be a “rolling” meeting so you won’t miss anything if you’re only there for part of it. Bring your lunch and a friend! Questions? Leave a message at SHARE, 508-929-4020 extension 0, and someone will call you back.

• All Welcome •
(Feel free to invite co-workers who aren't in SHARE.) 

______________________________________________ 
How do I enroll in the 401(k)?
It’s easy! You can enroll at the meeting if you want to.

I’m young, I don’t need that yet!
The earlier you start saving, the less you need to save every week.

I’m retiring in a few years, is it too late for me to start?
Better late than never – you can still save, and take advantage of the UMass Memorial match.

Can I change my mind? Can I increase the amount of money I contribute? Can I stop my deductions if I need to? What if I leave UMass Memorial?
All of these questions will be answered at the Information Meetings.
