GUILD OFFERS BUYOUT HELP
With less than a week to go to make decisions about the Sun's buyout plan, many of you have asked several good questions about how the buyout works and whether taking a buyout is a good choice for you and your family.
What are the tax consequences of taking a lump sum payment? Can I apply for unemployment insurance? If I sign this Waiver and Release, what does that really mean?
The Guild wants to help with some of your legal or financially-related questions. So we've asked a few folks to come set up shop for a couple hours to talk to you about what you want to know.
We'll hold a little seminar on Tuesday, July 8 from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. at St. Ignatius Church (just up the street from The Sun).
Among those invited are:
- Bob Paul, Guild attorney
- Pamela R. Graham, Registered Principal and Financial Advisor at Pro Wealth Management
- Bill Salganik, Guild leader extraordinaire (Bill just took this very buyout in March and can help).
- Stephanie Shapiro, former Features reporter (Stephanie also took the buyout in March).
- Tax Attorney, TBA
The experts can't provide individual financial planning, but will be on hand to answer general questions as best they can. The format will be drop-in style. So stop by whenever you have a moment in your work day that is mutually agreeable between you and your supervisor.
What: Financial Help with Buyout Package
When: Tuesday, July 8 -- anytime from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m.
Where: St. Ignatius Church
740 N. Calvert St.
Drop in anytime between 2 p.m. and 5 p.m. All interested employees, regardless of Guild or non-Guild status, are welcome.
