Event Details
In the wake of COVID-19, many in our community are overwhelmed with questions and uncertainty about the pandemic and its effects on our well-being, health and economy. University of Waterloo experts are here to share their knowledge and answer questions from our community.
Join us online for free, weekly community talks. Each Wednesday, for six weeks, Waterloo researchers will share information and answer your questions on important COVID-19 topics.
Topic: Planning for retirement in uncertain financial times

How do workers who are close to retirement adjust to this new world? Professor James Thompson will discuss retirement planning in the time of COVID-19 and answer your questions about personal finance.
Presented by James Thompson, professor, School of Accounting and Finance
