Rising prices, wild markets, increasing mortgage rates and soaring insurance costs are clouding the financial outlook of many Louisiana residents.
To help answer some questions and bring some clarity, The Advocate and The Times-Picayune will host a panel discussion with area financial experts that will address these and other topics.
The Times-Picayune | The Advocate Personal Finance Round Table, an online discussion sponsored by AARP, will be held virtually on Wednesday, May 3 at 10:00 a.m.

Business reporter Stephanie Riegel will host the discussion, which will be broadcast live on nola.com and theadvocate.com. It will feature:
Mitchell Bordelon, a certified financial advisor and portfolio manager for Crescent Sterling, Ltd, an independent private wealth management firm in Metairie.
Travis Moore, a vice president and business banker at Hancock Whitney in New Orleans.
Paige St. Martin, a certified financial planner and director of financial planning at Faubourg Private Wealth, a wealth management firm in Metairie.
In recent months, turmoil in some regional banks has raised fears about savings at the same time that the value of every dollar is falling because of inflation.
Meanwhile, many savers are seeing an increasing return on certificates of deposit and investments in the bond market, though stock market returns have been muted.
Those topics and others will be discussed, along with questions from readers.
