You Can Get Financial Advice Services Over Coffee and Wine
Alyson Wyers — January 30, 2015 — Social Good
The Society of Grownups offers financial advice services specifically targeted towards millennials. The 'Masters Program for Adulthood' was developed by insurance company MassMutual Financial Group and design agency IDEO. Rather than existing as online courses or something similar, the classes and workshops allow young people to gather in a physical building.
Described as one part cafe and one part education center, the financial advice services allow people under 40 to embrace their inner adult over coffee and cheap wine. The space hosts nightly events and guest speakers on topics like retirement, saving for a mortgage and starting a family as well as your next career move. This means the discussions help you reach not just professional goals, but personal ones as well in an environment that's actually enjoyable.
