The Business Network presents a real alternative to retirement plans at networking lunch 
bn007/10.05.12

The Preston group of The Business Network will present a real alternative to retirement planning at its next monthly meeting at Stanley House, Mellor on Thursday, 17 May 2012.

The free pre-lunch seminar asks the leading question: "Would you like to increase your retirement fund without contributing any more to it?" when network members, Georgina Cox and Mark Worrall of Real Alternative Investments, present "Are your retirement dreams looking more like a nightmare?"

Georgina and Mark will illustrate how, by taking control of existing pensions funds, a real difference can be made to retirement incomes. They ask: "Do you know how much income your pension will provide? We will show you how to make changes that benefit you, not the fund managers."

The Business Network host, Karen Tems, who also runs monthly events in South Manchester, Pennine Lancashire and Bolton & Bury, explains:

"One of the reasons why the events are such a hit is our educational seminars, which are offered free of charge by members to fellow members. Many regard the events as a vital part of their professional development. Our strength lies with our enthusiastic members. The Business Network is a supportive association of business and professional people who are generous with both their time and advice."

Key decision makers have been using The Business Network platform to meet and grow new business contacts in a relaxed and friendly environment. The events have helped businesses to thrive in challenging economic times. Following a tried and trusted formula, members connect with like minded people to develop productive and long term business relationships.
