John

and
Steve
Forbes,
chairman
and
editor
in chief
of Forbes
Media,
will
speak
to students
at Howard

“Econo-ME:
Redefining

The

and
how
individuals
and

must
redefine
the
rules
of financial

Northwestern

–

“Given
today’s
volatile
economy,
financial
security
is
no
longer
about
just
growing
and
managing
assets.
Rather,
it
means
developing
and
sticking
with
a
holistic
financial
plan
that
includes
managing
risks,
and
increasing
and
protecting
assets
over
time,”
said
Schlifske.
“I
look
forward
to
visiting
Howard
University,
and
encourage
all
students
and
faculty
to
join
me
and
economic
thought
leader
Steve
Forbes
at
the
event.”
Students
facing
uncertain
job
prospects
as
they
enter
their
careers
must
make
financial
decisions
based
on
their
short-
and
long-term
goals.
This
includes
developing
a
plan
A
and
B,
and
sticking
with
it.
That
plan
should
include
ways
to
build
assets,
manage
risks,
and
increase
and
protect
those
assets.
Additionally,
students
are
encouraged
to
have
open
discussions
with
their
parents
and
other
trusted
friends
and
family
members
about
their
finances.
