NORTHBROOK, Ill., Sept. 20, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Allstate agency owners across the United States report that their customers are increasingly worried about their ability to achieve financial goals, such as a secure retirement. This anxiety has been compounded by grim headlines about the economy, employment trends and stock market volatility.

In response to these concerns, Allstate will bring "The Savage Truth on Money Presented by Allstate" to five metropolitan areas through year-end: Denver; Minneapolis/St. Paul; Nashville, Tenn.; Chicago and Jacksonville, Fla. Allstate customers and members of the public are invited to attend the free 90-minute seminar, which features practical advice from award-winning personal finance journalist and author Terry Savage on:

  • Understanding your money personality – saver or spender?
  • Rebuilding your credit report – or getting started on a good credit score
  • Dealing with debt and mortgage problems
  • Starting to invest in the stock market with as little as $50 a month
  • Saving for college
  • Paying down student loans
  • Insuring what's important to you and your family
  • Planning for retirement

"Nothing is more empowering than owning your financial future. To achieve that goal, individuals must have the right tools, knowledge and advice," said Joan Walker, Allstate executive vice president.
