SUMMARY:Blue Hen Ready: Adulting 101 - Taxes\, Benefits\, & Retirement
DESCRIPTION:In this session\, CPA and UD alum Devin Ostermann will walk y
 ou through everything you wish someone had told you about taxes before yo
 u started your first "real" job. Whether you're staring down your first W
 -2\, trying to figure out what to check on your 401(k) enrollment form\, 
 or just tired of pretending you know what a Roth IRA is at family dinners
 \, this talk is designed to demystify the tax and retirement decisions th
 at quietly shape your financial life for decades. Expect plain-English ex
 planations\, real examples\, and plenty of time for questions. This talk 
 will include PowerPoint slides along with an open discussion.\n\nYou will
  walk away from this presentation having learned:\n • How income taxes 
 actually work (brackets\, withholding\, and why your paycheck looks the w
 ay it does).\n • What every form your employer hands you on day one rea
 lly means—W-4\, I-9\, direct deposit\, benefits elections.\n • The di
 fference between traditional and Roth retirement accounts\, and how to th
 ink about your 401(k) match.\n • How to think about a side hustle or fr
 eelance income without getting blindsided at tax time.\n • When it's wo
 rth doing your own return vs. hiring a CPA.\n\nSenior students and young 
 alumni (Class of 2022-2026) are encouraged to attend this free event spon
 sored by the Office of Development and Alumni Relations.\n\nOrganizer: Un
