Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Who should attend?

A: If you’re nearing retirement, are new to Medicare, or are soon to be new to Medicare – even if it’s 3, 4, 5 years away – we’d love for you to come. It’s never too early to start preparing for retirement and Medicare. You’re encouraged to bring your spouse.

Q: Where is the seminar?

A: Now that Michael has expanded his seminars into different cities across central Illinois, the venues vary. When you get your free ticket, the location information will be provided.

Q: Is this a sales pitch?

A: We cannot emphasize enough that this educational seminar is not a sales presentation; it’s education only. You will not be pitched any products at the end – Michael is very passionate about educating his community. There’s no signup sheet, no sales pitch, and no free meals that make you feel obligated to buy something. Light snacks and refreshments will be made available for your comfort, however.

For those that want to utilize Michael for help later on, he makes business cards available at the door. But other than that, you come for the seminar and leave with valuable information for Medicare and retirement planning!

Q: What will I learn?

The outline of Michael’s educational seminar covers the parts and the plans of Medicare, penalties and deadlines, how much everything costs, Social Security, and managing retirement savings (such as 401ks and IRAs).

“Michael talks very clear and very concise. Michael’s more about what your questions are and what he can answer for you to make you thankful you came,” Cathe, a previous seminar attendee, says.

Q: Why should I listen to Michael Sams?

Sams is a licensed insurance agent and 8-time Agent of the Year award-winner. He helps over 1,000 clients in the central Illinois community and is very passionate about educating seniors.
