Two credit unions join Credit Union of Johnson County

Two small Kansas City area credit unions are folding into the $232.8 million Credit Union of Johnson County.

The Leavenworth Teachers & Community Credit Union, with $2.8 million in assets, merged into Credit Union of Johnson County at the end of October.

Faith Financial Credit Union, a Kansas City-based credit union with $1.16 million in assets, will merge into it at the end of November.

Members of the two smaller credit unions voted to approve the mergers.

An announcement from Credit Union of Johnson County said it is retaining all employees of the merging credit unions.

Free Financial Advice

Question:

BRB asks

Who do I talk to for financial advice that does not involve them trying to sell me something? We are 60 and 59, have a 200,000 annuity, are 60-70,000 credit card debt, have a house that is half paid for,own a condo in fl that is not paying for itself, have a good credit rating, not behind on anything, not facing foreclosure, wife on disability, husband still working, Want to pay off credit cards, but don't know how. Should we use part of annuity? I just want to know who to ask for help. Thanks

Answer:

It looks like you would be well served by a comprehensive financial plan which would address your concerns and give you a clear picture of where you are at financially. Financial advisors are paid in two different ways. Some receive commissions for the products they sell you. There are also fee only financial planners who work for you for a set fee and sell no products. In their case you know exactly how much it will cost you up front. It would also be preferable to use a financial planner who is a Certified Financial Planner.

Best Regards,
