#MyInvestingStory showcases the Investing Story of Successful Long-term Investors, who are everyday people. Ann and Ionnie McNeill, are both Lifetime Members and Volunteers of BetterInvesting, a non-profit focused on Investment Education for Individuals and Investment Clubs. Each week we interview a Special Guest, shining light on their investing story, lessons learned, words of wisdom and resources to aid you in starting your investing journey.
One of the national program targets of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. in 2000 was Economic Empowerment. Because many of our members were employed by companies who were transitioning from pension plans to Self-Directed 401k retirement plans, the national program target became particularly important. The Indianapolis Chapter’s program chairman at this time was an executive at a major corporation. She recognized that we, as women, needed to strengthen our investment skills in order to enhance our own retirement portfolios. I2K was launched in January 2000 with the purpose of educating ourselves to stock market investing, then share this knowledge with our families and the minority community.
