About Our Seminars

Free Retirement Education Across Northeast Ohio

Western Reserve Capital Management hosts free educational seminars for retirees and pre-retirees at public libraries and community venues across Northeast Ohio. Sessions cover retirement planning, Social Security, and taxes in retirement.

These are educational sessions rather than sales presentations. We are a fee-only fiduciary firm, compensated only by our clients, and we sell no financial products or insurance. Attendees are welcome to bring questions about their own circumstances, and no one will be asked to buy anything.

What It Costs

Our events are free, no cost community educational events. There is no sales pressure as these have an educational focus and exclude the sale of products or services.
