Financial Literacy Through The Thrift Savings Program

for Federal Employees, Uniformed Services Members

and their Spouses/Partners

No outside vendors, financial planners or advisors please. PPS/FBS pride themselves on not soliciting attendees or selling any type of financial products/services. These sessions are 100% instructional training and are

**limited to federal employees and uniformed service members.**

Featuring Deborah Hatch, CEO and primary instructor for both Pinnacle Personnel Services, LLC., and its subsidiary Federal Benefits Services, LLC. Presenter brings experience garnered from working in and with the federal government for over 24 years. First as a federal benefits and human resources specialist within Departments of Defense, Air Force, and Veterans Affairs; then as a government contractor. She has presented hundreds of retirement seminars, for dozens of federal agencies worldwide. She has trained thousands of employees: special provisions and traditional, title 5, 10, 32, and 38. This is the same information normally presented in the classroom but being provided virtually because of the current social situation and COVID-19 pandemic.

Each session includes:

Background and creation of TSP

TSP's part in your overall retirement planning

Determining financial needs for retirement

Sources of contribution: employee and agency contributions

Investment options within TSP

Fund risks
