Investing 101: The Rules of the Road Have you bee

Investing 101: The Rules of the Road

Have you been thinking about investing? Do you have questions about the investments you've already made? Looking for something to add on?

The world of money can be daunting. It sometimes feels like there are never ending hoops to jump through and Star Wars intro worthy fine print to get through. Chris Reddick is joining us on 3/14 to help us break down and understand the basics of investing.

Chris Reddick, AAMS, CRPS has been with Edward Jones since 2015 he is an accredited Asset Management Specialist and a Chartered Retirement Plan Specialist with a strong background in the motion picture industry. Raised in the world of investing by his stock-broker grandfather, Chris has been in the world of finance since he was 10.
He spends most of his hours working with media professionals both in front and behind the camera.
While working for Warner Bros. Studios, Reddick learned how to ask great questions and manage my clients' realistic expectations within the motion picture industry. Many of those skills he learned interacting with creative talent are still applicable today with his work serving those clients with their financial needs.

ON April 1st, WE STRIKE⚠️ SNL’s editorial t $ON April 1st, WE STRIKE⚠️ SNL’s editorial team is paid far below industry standards. Assistant Editors receive just a fraction of what their counterparts on union shows earn. After months of negotiations, NBCU still hasn’t agreed to address the crew’s concerns, or even to guarantee maintenance of current health benefits. The season is almost over. Not only is NBCU saying no to the union’s reasonable proposals – by offering annual increases that lag behind industry standards, they’re pushing for a deal that ignores the soaring cost of living and moves the crew backward in future years. NBCU claims they, too, want to reach an agreement. But we’re nearing the end of the season, and talks drag on. In refusing to agree to retroactive wage increases, management expects the workers to pay for NBCU’s delays. Beyond that, NBCU has insisted on an egregious “management’s rights” clause that would strip union employees of their right to negotiate over workplace rules and policies. NBCU has refused fair compensation, refused to commit to maintaining existing health benefits, and refused to show SNL’s post crew the respect they deserve. NBCU wants to shut us up – so we will yell louder. Plan to join us on the picket line April 1st.$
