Be sure to reserve your space early, as Cary's very popular classes—Money Matters, Family Budgeting, and Savings and Investment—fill up rapidly.

Wandering Winners Investment Club (WWIC)
Financial LiteracyThe Wandering Winners Investment Club was established in June 2001 by 23 WBFN members. Most of the members are “graduates” of Cary Clark's financial literacy seminars and remain very grateful to her. WWIC members undertake a regular course of investment study, including research and investment in stocks. The Club meets once a month, usually the first Wednesday morning of the month, for approximately two hours to discuss investment strategies, new stocks and the WWIC stock portfolio.
