SUMMARY:Financial Foundations
DESCRIPTION:Mastering Debt and Credit\n \n\n\n\nThis course\, presented by Heartland Bank\, is designed to demystify the complexities of personal finance and empower participants with actionable strategies for long-term stability. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe curriculum begins with the Anatomy of Credit\, breaking down the mechanics of borrowing and the differences between revolving and installment loans. From there\, students dive deep into the FICO Formula and credit reporting\, learning exactly how the “Big Three” bureaus evaluate financial reputations and how to effectively dispute inaccuracies. To move beyond theory\, the course provides a roadmap for Strategic Debt Management\, teaching participants how to calculate their debt-to-income ratios and identify the warning signs of a financial “danger zone.” \nThe syllabus also covers the practical\, day-to-day use of financial tools\, specifically focusing on the Responsible Use of Credit Cards by explaining statement cycles and the mathematical pitfalls of minimum payments. Finally\, the program bridges the gap between management and growth through Future Planning\, highlighting essential banking resources\, the necessity of emergency funds\, and the steps required to prepare for major life milestones like homeownership or entrepreneurship. This course ensures that every attendee leaves with a clear understanding of how to make credit work for them rather than against them. \nYour presenters: \nCallihan Benson is the Financial Center Manager at Heartland Bank\, a Division of German American Bank\, in Pickerington. She has 18 years of experience in retail banking. She is the treasurer of the Tri-County Area Realty Association\, and a member of the Pickerington Lion’s Club. Callihan loves building relationships and helping her customers save time and money. When she is not at work\, she is with her husband\, Chris\, of 17 years and son\, Cooper\, who is 11. \n  \n\nSince 1995\, Brent Diebert has assisted countless clients on their journeys to become homeowners. As an integral part of the Heartland Bank Mortgage team\, Brent is committed to guiding his clients with confidence through the loan process. While explaining the lending procedure\, products and terminology\, his goal is to find the perfect loan for his clients’ needs. Even though homeowners may think about purchasing or refinancing a home only a few times in their lives\, Brent thinks about it daily to be prepared with advice for the biggest financial transaction most individuals make. He is a board member of Leadership Worthington\, supporter of Worthington Robotics\, and the past Co-chair of the Affordable Housing Committee at Columbus REALTORS®. Brent is also a licensed continuing education provider often focusing on home affordability topics with real estate agents throughout Ohio. \n\n\n\n  \nShare this:\n				Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n				Facebook\n			\n				Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n				LinkedIn\n			\n				Share on Threads (Opens in new window)\n				Threads\n			\n				Share on X (Opens in new window)\n				X\n			Like this:Like Loading…

SUMMARY:Authors Visit: Unnatural Ohio
DESCRIPTION:Explore cryptids\, ghost stories\, and unexplained mysteries as authors M. Kristina Smith and Kevin Moore separate fact from legend. Join us for a fascinating look at Ohio’s strange and storied past. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nAcross city and country\, Ohio echoes with tales of creatures\, ghosts\, and other unexplained phenomena. A monster that appeared to be half man and half dog and wielding a 2-by-4 terrorized a small Northwest Ohio town during the summer of 1972. Over the years\, visitors to a quiet Cincinnati suburb claim to have been accosted by a human-size\, leathery frogman lurking near the riverbank. For generations\, hikers and hunters have reported seeing Bigfoot throughout forests across Ohio\, and some of the most notorious and well-documented UFO encounters on record have taken place here. Authors M. Kristina Smith and Kevin Moore parse urban legends from history as they explore the unnatural side of Ohio’s heritage. \nUnnatural Ohio: A History of Buckeye Cryptids\, Legends & Other Mysteries was published by The History Press in September 2023. It was based on a special exhibit at the Hayes Presidential Library & Museums on Ohio folklore and legends that was in display in 2020 and 2021. The authors\, Kevin Moore and M. Kristina Smith\, both work at the museum. \n\n\n\nShare this:\n				Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n				Facebook\n			\n				Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n				LinkedIn\n			\n				Share on Threads (Opens in new window)\n				Threads\n			\n				Share on X (Opens in new window)\n				X\n			Like this:Like Loading…
