Financial Guru Winnie Sun to Speak at the Third-Annual 529 Conference
Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) September 17, 2015 -- There is a crisis in the U.S. It not only affects us, but the well-being of generations to come. In today’s global economy, getting a job and sustaining a household without a college degree is extremely difficult. There is a “Perfect Storm” effect, though, of swelling education debt coupled with rapidly contracting government aid for education. Many American families can potentially face financial ruin because they choose to educate themselves and their children beyond high school. Others forgo college, because of the staggering costs and shut out most meaningful and lucrative job opportunities.
Whether you are new to the college savings market or a seasoned pro, this insightful full-day seminar will drill down into the mechanics of 529 plans and provide you with a clear understanding of the ever-evolving tax, regulatory, investment and structural implications driving the market today.
At this highly interactive industry event, you’ll meet and network with the entire 529 ecosystem, including:
• State agencies • Investment advisers
• Treasury officials • Industry regulators
• 529 product providers • 529 consultants
• Broker/Dealer gatekeepers • Asset managers
Winnie is Managing Director and Founding Partner of Sun Group Wealth Partners, a trusted independent wealth management firm providing financial planning services to television, movie, tech, business owners, senior executives and established families throughout the West Coast. Her expertise and knowledge of the 529 plans will be an invaluable resource at this year’s conference. http://www.sungroupwp.com
“As a financial advisor and mother of three, the 529 College Savings community to me, is the “heart” of the financial planning industry. It’s invigorating to be in the presence of the leaders of this space, pushing to offer our children and employers a better way to offset college costs. We discuss and debate on measures that make a direct impact on children’s future. This is my second year being asked to speak on behalf of advisors nationwide, and it’s an honor and gift.” Winnie Says.
That focus, along with her dedication to holistic wealth management—customizing plans not merely for the individual—but often for the generations that follow, was her inspiration for founding the Campaign for Next Generation Employees. The Campaign’s mission is to encourage our nation’s largest employers, namely the Fortune 500 companies, to fulfill their social responsibilities to helping to educate the next generation of Americans for gainful employment and offer corporate sponsored 529 plans for their employees.
“529 plans are an investment vehicle that allows investors the ability to proactively save for higher education in an efficient way in terms of tax, financial aid and estate planning. The goal of the 529 Conference 2015 is to uncover the most effective strategies for college financial planning growth. Winnie Sun is a leader in the movement towards Corporate 529s as the founder of Campaign for next Generation Employees and as an exemplary wealth manager to other advisors. Based on Winnie’s boots on the ground experience with plan sponsors and employees, and experience in getting past hurdles as highlighted in her Renegade Millionaire Show, we appreciate Winnie’s leadership, collaboration and insight as a key pillar to the college financial planning industry.” Says Paul Curley, CFA, Director of College Savings Research, Strategic Insight, an Asset International Company.
