WASHINGTON
(Feb.21)
-- From
the middle
class to
millionaires,
most people
feel they
don't have
enough money
at times,
says Howard
University
School of
Law Professor
Alice Gresham
Bullock.
But more
money, Bullock
says, won't
necessarily
solve financial
difficulties
if you don’t
manage it
properly.
Almost
daily there
are stories
in the news
about celebrities
who have
somehow
frittered
away fortunes
through
bad money
management,
notes Bullock,
a nationally-known
expert on
tax and
real estate
planning.
Bullock,
former dean
of the law
school,
will explain
simple,
but vital
steps to
financial
success
noon Friday,
Feb. 25,
in room
138 of the
Louis Stokes
Health Sciences
Library.
Her discussion
on the cornerstones
of smart
financial
planning
kicks off
“Gaining
Financial
Literacy
to Building
Your Personal
Wealth,”
a series
of lectures
being presented
by the Women’s
Health Institute.
A
member of
the law
school faculty
since 1979,
Gresham
is an expert
in federal
taxation,
wills, trusts
and estates.
She is on
the board
of directors
of the Calvert
Group, the
investment
company
that pioneered
socially
responsible
investing
to build
wealth.

in
journals
on
a
wide
range
of
issues,
