IRA's

 

We know how important it is to save for your retirement or your child’s education.  If you payroll deduct just a small amount each pay period, you can create a substantial nest egg or fund for your child’s higher education.

We offer the three common IRA’s:

1)  Traditional IRA 

Defers taxes on the earnings until withdrawn; contributions may be tax deductible.

 

2)  Roth IRA

Earnings are tax free if the account is open for 5 tax years & withdrawn for a qualified reason.  Contributions are not tax deductible .

3)  Education IRA

Tax and penalty free withdrawals for qualified expense.  Contributions are not tax deductible.


MARKET INDEX CERTIFICATE

If you’d like to cash in on the red hot stock market without getting burned, you might consider a certificate with a different spin, our market index certificate.  2 year and 4 year terms are available. Certificate dividends are tied to the growth of the Standard & Poor’s 500.  

Here’s how it works:  If the S & P 500 is higher on the day your certificate matures than it was when it was established, you earn a percentage of the increase.  But if the S & P 500 goes down, don’t worry – you won’t lose a penny of your principle.  It’s insured and will be returned to you.


INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITIES:

  • IRA Share Account -- no minimum balance required.

  • IRA Share Certificate -- 18 month term.  A minimum deposit of  $1000 is required to open a certificate.

  • Market Index Certificate.
