Coming
Soon...National Credit Union Youth Week
April
23-29, 2006
If you’re 50-plus,
you have an IRA advantage!
It’s called a “catch-up” contribution,
and it allows you to put an additional $500 in your IRA—but
only if you’re 50 or older by the end of the year. So
this year, you can contribute a maximum of $3,500 to your
traditional or Roth IRA here at Baycel Federal Credit Union.
And that’s just a bit of a teaser! In coming years,
individual and catch-up contribution limits are scheduled
to increase even more to a maximum of $6,000 in 2008! See
the chart below:

A traditional IRA allows your funds to grow tax-deferred,
therefore you don’t pay taxes until you take distributions.
In a Roth IRA, contributions are made with after-tax dollars,
and earnings may be tax-free when you take the money out.
With either IRA, the “catch-up” contributions
are an advantage that makes a big difference! To find out
more about “catching up” and for answers to any
of your IRA questions, call us at (979) 244-3995.

CHOOSE THE DEALER REBATE----AND
LEAVE THE FINANCING TO US
Now do better than 0% dealer financing. Simply combine our
extremely low rates with typical dealer rebates of $2000,
$3000 or more --and save hundreds more on the car of your
dreams.
DON'T BE FOOLED BY THE 0% FAIRY TALE
Sure, many dealers say they offer 0% financing options. But
when you read the fine print, notice all the limitations:
How that deal's not available on the model you want
That the deal is for a shorter term than you need (Increasing
you monthly payment)
There may be a large pre-payment penalty
Or the 0% financing is available to a few buyers with perfect
credit
OUR RATES + their rebates = SAVINGS FOR YOU.
