How To Keep Your Savings Safe

Reveals the hidden risks associated with common investments, such as bank deposits, money-market funds, annuities, guaranteed investment contracts, and other investments traditionally considered "safe," and evaluates the stability of banks, insurance companies, and money-market funds. How To Keep Your Savings Safe aims not to totally eliminate risk but to show the depositor/investor where the risks are and how to keep them at a minimum. It does this by providing some basic information for those whose only investment is a small checking account to investors with an impressive portfolio. It is the type of information that most would not have given a second thought to prior to the 1980s but which is now critical to everyone.
