Savings Tip!
Many people think that they need a large lump sum of money to open an Investment IRA. Did you know that you could open one with a small monthly contribution?

Ever hear of the Rule of 72?
To calculate approximately how many years it will take to double your money, take the number 72 and divide it by the interest rate. For example, if you deposit $2,000 and your interest rate is 2%, your money should double in approximately 36 years (72 divided by 2 = 36).

You do the math!
How much will you save by bringing your lunch to work? How long will it take to save $1,000,000? Check out our interactive savings calculators. Click here.

Ask yourself… Do you know how much money you will need to retire? Do you have a retirement savings plan (such as a 401(k) and/or IRA) in place? Have you made a contribution to an IRA for the 2006 tax year? Are you maximizing your contributions to your retirement savings? Are you aware of the new tax laws that have expanded the ability to save for retirement? If you answered no to any of the questions above, we can help.
