At any age or stage in life, it's important to stay informed about ways to save

timely tips on money management on the agency's Web site and through an e-mail subscription
service.
The first five tips will be issued during NCPW – one each day – beginning Monday,
March 8. Starting the following Monday, the tips will be provided on a weekly basis
as the FDIC "Consumer Tip of the Week." Topics will range from saving and borrowing
money to protecting money with FDIC insurance and avoiding financial fraud.
