Coins are dropping into that piggy bank | When you’re just starting out in the early stages of your career, it’s important to save whatever you can. |

| A thought bubble appears with the younger woman thinking of herself in retirement and the words “Planning,” “Budgeting” and “Financial Topics” appear to the right | And even if you’re not thinking about retirement, it’s still smart to learn about estate planning, budgeting, and other financial topics. |
| The words “30-50 years old” appear in the left-hand corner of the screen and the younger woman now becomes slightly older.

How much income do you expect to have? What will it take to get there? |

| The older woman appears back on screen with toggle bars next to her. | If you’re looking to preserve your savings, this is a good time to consider adjusting your investments with lower risk options. |
