- Is whole life insurance a good investment, or should one continue to save to buy a home?
- What are the financial obligations for a separated spouse, when one partner dies and there was no formal divorce?
- Should you cash in savings and a 401(k) to buy a condo, when one partner has just quit his job?
- When is the right time period to convert to a Roth IRA?
- How does one convert their Roth IRA into a living revocable trust?

| 0:00.0 | Hey, everybody. I want you all to take advantage of the incredible interest rates that a |
| 0:05.7 | Lyon Credit Union is currently offering 4.5% for a three-month certificate, 4.75% for a six-month |
| 0:15.2 | certificate. But best of all, in my opinion, is 5% for a one-year certificate of deposit. |
| 0:24.4 | You can also purchase these in a retirement account. So go to myeliantaliant.com, |
| 0:34.5 | slash ultimate, and check it out now. |
