EMERGENCY FUND “Rainy Day Fund” Money (saved) to cover unexpected emergencies Unemployment, Sickness (Deductible), Accident, Repairs to car/appliances, or death in the family Should save 3 to 6 months of expenses HIGH SCHOOL AGE EMERGENCY FUND = $500 Money is far enough away from your “spending money”… but close enough to get it in case of emergency BEST SPOT for this = Savings Account

The need for liquidity will vary, based on your age, health, family situation, and overall wealth. Should your EMERGENCY Fund be “liquid”?

8. Long-term Needs Long-term needs are expenses that are costly and require years of planning and saving. Typically over 5 years Chapter 10

12. READING ASSIGNMENT Read Chapter 10 Section 1 (Page 222-225) Define/outline remaining concepts

13. How Money Grows The amount of money you deposit into a savings account is called the principal. For the use of your money, the financial institution pays you money called interest. Interest represents earnings on principal. As principal and interest grow, more interest accumulates. This is known as compound interest, or interest paid on the original principal plus accumulated interest. Chapter 10

14. Annual Percentage Yield (APY) Annual percentage yield (APY) is the actual interest rate an account pays, stated on a yearly basis with the compounding included. Because all financial institutions must calculate APY the same way, you can use APY to easily compare the yields on different accounts. Chapter 10 SLI DE 14

15. Compounding Interest Annually Year Beginning Balance Interest Earned (6%) Ending Balance 1$100.00$6.00$106.00 2 $6.36$112.36 3 $6.74$119.10 The Year 1 ending balance is the Year 2 beginning balance. The Year 2 ending balance is the Year 3 beginning balance. The 6% interest rate stays the same, but the interest earned increases each year. SLI DE 15 Chapter 10

17. Lesson 10.2 Savings Options, Features, and Plans GOALS Explain the features and purposes of different savings options. Discuss factors that influence selection of a savings plan. Describe ways to save regularly. Chapter 10 SLI DE 17

18. Savings Options Once you have decided to establish a savings program, you need to know about the different savings options available to you. You may want to deposit money in several types of accounts, because each can contribute to your overall plan in different ways. Chapter 10 SLI DE 18

19. Regular Savings Account A regular savings account has a major advantage— high liquidity. Liquidity is a measure of how quickly you can get your cash without loss of value. A regular savings account is said to be very liquid because you can withdraw your money at any time without penalty. The tradeoff for high liquidity, however, is a lower interest rate. Chapter 10 SLI DE 19

20. Certificate of Deposit A certificate of deposit (CD), or time deposit, is a deposit that earns a fixed interest rate for a specified length of time. A CD requires a minimum deposit. You must leave the money in the CD for the full time period. If you take out any part of your money early, you will pay an early withdrawal penalty. A CD has a set maturity date, which is the date on which an investment becomes due for payment. Chapter 10 SLI DE 20

21. Money Market Account A money market account is a type of savings account that offers a more competitive interest rate than a regular savings account. There are two different kinds of money market accounts: Money market deposit account Money market fund On average, money market funds will pay a higher interest rate than money market deposit accounts. Chapter 10 SLI DE 21

22. Selecting a Savings Plan Liquidity Safety Convenience Interest-earning potential (yield) Fees and restrictions Chapter 10 SLI DE 22

23. Liquidity Liquidity is how quickly you can turn savings into cash when you want it. The need for liquidity will vary, based on your age, health, family situation, and overall wealth. Chapter 10 SLI DE 23

24. Safety Safety of principal means that you are guaranteed not to lose your savings deposit, even if the bank or other financial institution fails and goes out of business. Most financial institutions are insured by a government agency, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) or National Credit Union Association (NCUA). Deposits in banks, no matter what type, are almost always safer than investments in the stock market. Chapter 10 SLI DE 24

25. Convenience Locations Services offered Chapter 10 SLI DE 25

26. Interest-Earning Potential (Yield) You want to earn as much interest as you can on your deposit, while maintaining the degree of liquidity, safety, and convenience you want. Shop around for the best APY in your area for the type of account you want. Chapter 10 SLI DE 26

27. Fees and Restrictions Different accounts and institutions have different rules. Before you open an account, be sure to understand the withdrawal restrictions, minimum balances, service charges, fees, and any other requirements. Chapter 10 SLI DE 27

28. Saving Regularly Saving regularly will help you meet all of your financial goals. It is important not just to save but to save regularly. Over time, and with compounding interest, your savings can grow into a substantial sum. There are ways to make regular saving easier, including direct deposits and payroll deductions. Chapter 10 SLI DE 28

29. Direct Deposit With direct deposit, your net pay is deposited electronically into your bank account. You receive a nonnegotiable copy of your check and stub, notifying you of the amount deposited directly into your account You can have your automatic deposit split between accounts, with some going into savings and some going into checking to cover your bills. Chapter 10 SLI DE 29

30. Automatic Deductions Automatic deductions represent money you have authorized your bank or other organization to move from one account to another at regular intervals. With a payroll savings plan, you authorize your employer to make automatic deductions from your paycheck each pay period. Chapter 10 SLI DE 30

31. Collecting Coins and Cash Some people find it convenient to set aside their spare change and money left over each day or week. Setting aside small amounts of change each day will lead to large sums over time. It’s surprising how pennies can add up to make dollars! Chapter 10 SLI DE 31
