After STOCK: Four Financial Perks Still Enjoyed by Congress
Congress has made a half-hearted attempt to crack down on its own insider trading brought to the public’s attention last November by a 60 Minutes report (also see Congressional Insider Trading: Story Finally Sticks) and Peter Schweizer’s book Throw Them All Out. Both sources pointed out that high-ranking members of Congress traded shares of Citigroup (C) Goldman Sachs (GS) Bank of America (BAC) Apple (AAPL) and other companies’ stocks when receiving news about the coming financial crisis in 2008. Congress quickly introduced the Stop Trading on Congressional Knowledge Act or STOCK Act in the same month to respond to

Forget 1% CDs — This Alternative Pays Four Times More
1.80%. That's the highest paying FDIC-insured bank CD I could find on BankRate.com. And that's only if keep my money tied up for five years! The average one-year CD pays just 0.72% APY.
I remember when I worked for a community bank a few years ago, just after CD interest rates plummeted from a healthy 5% to a paltry 2%.
Bank CDs, a product that customers would have lined up for in the past, became a tough sell — especially to retirees that actually depended on the interest to live every day.
When I told one of our elderly customers he'd have to invest in a five-year CD to get a rate even remotely close to the one he got just a year earlier, he jokingly contested, "Five years? I may not even live five more years!"
I can understand that frustration.

Four Steps to a Trend Reversal
Traders often search for reversal trade set-ups, which allow them to enter as close as possible to the elusive price top or bottom of a trend reversal. However, experience proves that entering at market tops or bottoms is not only very difficult, but can cost traders dearly as price continues marching forward in its established trend. Reversal strategies do have a place in a developing trader’s arsenal, but new traders often do better to adhere to less-risky strategies such as retracement set-ups that develop within a trend in motion, especially after a new trend has developed. When looking for trend reversals on any stock or ETF, follow these four steps before calling your next market top or bottom.

Four Mistakes to Avoid When Investing Your Retirement Fund Money
For the past few weeks, I’ve been studying, reading about, and helping people understand their retirement funds and ways to protect and grow the nest egg that represents their retirement fund money. Throughout the research process, four mistakes to avoid kept coming up in conversations as to how investors were able to put away enough money for the leisure years of life. These mistakes often led significant lost wealth due to higher-than-necessary expenses or significant losses due to taking foolish risks. They are simple, straightforward, yet somehow get forgotten in the hustle and bustle of modern day life. That is a risk you can’t afford to take with your future.
Beyond all of this, and the four tips for investing your retirement money, the biggest mistake I see isn’t even on the list. It involves people not staying the course; not sticking with a plan that works. After years of saving success, they find themselves with $ 20,000 or $ 50,000 and they think of it as a backup to tap in the event of an emergency. In the old days of company pensions, this was impossible (which explains why people were more conservative with their finances and made it to old age self-sufficient).
Whatever happens, realize that there is no safety net. There is no backup. If you want to retire comfortably and independently, it is your responsibility to make that happen. Not your employer. Not your country. Not the taxpayer. Not your family. Not your children. Your responsibility. To help you do that, read 4 Tips to Building Your Retirement Funds: A Few Things You Can Do To Protect and Grow Your Retirement Fund Money.
