Show School district offers estate planning courses The Alpine School District will again offer a comprehensive course in estate and financial planning through the community school program at American Fork Junior High School. The course is designed to help people gain a basic knowledge and understanding of current tax laws (and how to use them to their advantage), how to identify potential problems in their own financial programs, how and when to use some of the more common estate planning plan-ning tools, (wills, trusts, corporations, partnerships, part-nerships, etc.) and an objective exploration of some of the various investment and estate planning alternatives available. A discussion will also be held on how to evaluate risks and avoid investment fraud. The course will be taught by Duane W. Wyckoff, a financial planner who has conducted con-ducted these and similar seminars in various schools and universities for the past few years. Wyckoff just completed com-pleted a speaking tour throughout the state, sponsored by the county and city library programs on "Financial Survival in the 80's". He also is a guest lecturer for senior financial planning students at BYU. The courses will begin Wednesday, Oct. 13 in Room 169 at American Fork Junior High School from 7 to 9 p.m. and will continue for six weeks. The fee is $9 per person and should be paid directly to the American Fork Junior High School Community School manager. Registration may be made in advance through the school or can take place on the first night of class. For further information in-formation contact Mr. Wyckoff at 375-1600. |
