Hi Everyone,

This morning I saw these beautiful crocuses in our yard.  I always love to see the crocuses because they are a harbinger of spring and warmer weather.

These crocuses are so much like some of the pieces of personal finance.  If you have a good savings program going that savings program can be a harbinger of warmer weather for you financially in the future.  What are you saving for?  Is it something short term like a vacation or a down payment on a new car?  Or is it savings for retirement or a down payment of a new house?  Or are you just putting away a few nickels just in case something unexpected happens?  Whatever you are saving for it’s good.  If you’re not saving it’s not so good and it’s probably time to get with the program.  Interest rates are on the rise now and we’ve responded at the credit union by raising our CD rates.  We have the best CD rates in the country and it’s so easy to open a CD.  All you need is $500 to open a CD. Drop us a line or give us a call and we’ll be happy to help you get a savings plan rolling.

The weather is warming.  I know because of these lovely crocuses.  Hopefully your savings program is just as beautiful.
