Bee Prepared

Meet Buzz

Designated as Missouri's official state insect, the honeybee is scientifically known as apis mellifera. At the State of Missouri Deferred Compensation Plan, we simply call him Buzz. As the Plan's mascot, Buzz represents the many hardworking and conscientious public employees who make up our State's workforce. Buzz is also a fitting reminder that even the busiest worker bee needs to take a moment to consider retirement savings, and that when it comes to your future you should always "Bee prepared."

Look for Buzz hanging around the Plan website and in upcoming publications.
