Practical, solutions-based breakout sessions blend with a memorable keynote speaker promising a day well spent for all who attend the upcoming MnSF-Metro Region Convention. Participants can choose from four life tracks: Pre-Retirement; Life Style and Health; Safety; and Public Policy Issues, plus 12 stimulating sessions that cover everything from caregiving trends and defensive driving to an exciting computer-based brain fitness program called PositScience. 

Will the 40- and 50-somethings of today have to pay out half their income in taxes to keep the system going? Will there be a massive redistribution of wealth from workers to retirees? Or is all this just overblown hype? A Retirement Security session will sort out the facts from fiction.
