AARP Eye Center
An active volunteer at the AARP New Jersey State Office for the past five years, Richard Satyavan’s background is in Information Technology. “After my retirement from IT work in 2009, I decided to begin volunteering through AARP to help seniors using my IT skills and expertise,” said Richard. “My mission now is to be a life coach for seniors who need help concerning their health, finances, and quality of life.”
As difficult as it is in NJ to save for your retirement; the least you deserve is a financial advisor who not only works hard to protect and grow your assets but also puts your interest ahead of theirs. Unfortunately, legal loopholes allow some financial advisers to further their own financial interest instead. They are legally allowed to recommend investments with higher fees, riskier features, and lower returns to make more for them at your expense. Research shows bad advice costs Americans at least $17 billion per year. That can translate into as much as 25% of retirement income or 5 years’ worth of savings.
Last year in the United States, over 50,000 adults died from diseases that might have been prevented through simple vaccinations. While immunization has had a dramatic effect in decreasing childhood disease, adults remain seriously under immunized. Each year, 99% of all vaccine-preventable deaths occur in adults with over 200,000 hospitalizations for serious complications. Deaths from vaccine-preventable diseases in adults outnumber those from breast cancer, HIV/AIDS, and motor-vehicle accidents. These are BIG numbers!
Do you have health insurance? More New Jerseyans than ever before do. Over a two year period since the Affordable Care Act (ACA) opened the federal insurance marketplace and expanded Medicaid, the uninsured population has decreased by nearly half across the state.
Earlier this year PSE&G unveiled a new Gas Modernization Program – a proposed 5 year program to replace and upgrade aging gas utility infrastructure that came with an almost $1.6 billion price tag.
