Saving for Retirement:
Plan ahead for a satisfactory retirement.  Contribute to a 403(b), and/or 457(b) account on a tax-free basis.  Set aside as much as $16,500 in 2009, plus an additional $5,500 if you are age 50 or older by 12/31/09.  For more information consult your financial planner.  If you don't have a financial planner, you may use those provided by San Diego County Schools Fringe Benefits Consortium. For assistance, contact Randy Thill at 760.845.2596 or by email at thillr@nationwide.com. 

Palomar College also offers a Roth 403(b) plan.  The only Roth 403(b) vendor is the Fringe Benefits Consortium.  Investment options are outlined in the forms packet on the page headed "Nationwide Enrollment Form".
