Save smart and sleep easy!
The fluctuating stock market has some
folks looking for a safe place to stash their cash. Forget the mattress,
we've got better ideas!
CD
safety with stock market fun
Leery of the stock market, but don't want
to miss out on the ride? Check out these CDs, which are tied to
a stock index. You play the market with your interest -- at no risk
to your principal.
Callable
CDs -- higher reward, higher risk
CDs are generally a safe investment, but callable CDs can give
you a nasty bite if you're not careful.
Seedy
CDs targeting seniors
Be careful, not all the high-yielding CDs are for real. Find
out what the government discovered about elderly investors being
tricked into buying 20-year CDs.
The
case for money market funds
Once passe, stronger yields, steady return and easy accessibility
are bringing money market accounts back in vogue.
Your
home, your castle -- and your savings account
More people than ever own homes -- and count on them as their
savings, too. Is that wise?
