Take the Square Up Your Savings Challenge

Published on April 1, 2016 by MSU Human ResourcesLeave a comment

MSU Human Resources is pleased to announce that we’ve teamed up with one of our retirement vendors, TIAA, to bring you the “Square Up Your Savings” challenge.

April is Financial Literacy Month, and Square Up Your Savings is a fun way to learn important strategies to boost your savings know-how.

Take the challenge through April 30, 2016, by completing one of 10 new missions that highlight savings education each day. Every time you complete a mission, you will earn a square to place on the map where you think the virtual hidden savings might be.

Every time you play, you are automatically entered for a chance to win one of three iPad minis. The more you play, the better your chances of winning, so sign on every day until all 10 missions are complete! (All responses are confidential. Please visit the link below to see the official rules of the sweepstakes.)

Are you ready to test your financial savvy? Take the challenge now!

You will need to complete the registration form to begin the challenge. Please note, you do not need to be a TIAA account member to take part in the challenge. You will create a password of your choosing; the password will not be associated with your MSU NetID or any retirement accounts. Using your MSU NetID email address at registration is preferred so we can verify your employment if you are a winner.

Have questions about the challenge? View the How it Works link, or contact Human Resources at 517-353-4434 or SolutionsCenter@hr.msu.edu.

Good luck!
