Why 403(b) Plans Are So Awful So Often fixmy403b.com/?p=499

This. It’s what we (teachers) have been asking for but couldn’t articulate it. You not only could, but did. Teachers did (do) not understand how bad it is and it’s our duty to make them understand. It’ll save them hundreds of thousands of dollars. Thank you Dina Grasso Isola and Tony

This could be you, fellow teacher. Start paying attention to small fees because they compound.

And 75% of teachers are contributing to high cost annuity products instead of high value index funds. #403b Let’s fix this!

1) Do you spend money mostly on things that you value? 2) Do you have money going automatically into a savings account? 3) Do you spend more on needs rather than wants?

Teachers, it's a good idea to question your union's (or governing body) choices and decisions. When I did, strange things happened.

Just like I wholly reject how #NEA and local teachers unions (due to the trickle-down effect) try shoving expensive NEA endorsed annuities into our #403b plans. #teachershelpingteachers #teachers

Great news for teachers who have Davis Vision: 7.9% of your premium goes to NYSUT Member Benefits as an endorsement benefit, down from 12.91% last year. Your union is working for you? Makes you wonder how much $$$ the #403(b) endorsement arrangement brings into NYSUT.
