Pay Less for Banking & Loans

Seven ideas to keep more in your bank account.

1. Bye-Bye, Late Fees: Millions pay credit-card late fees of as much as $39 each month. Use an automatic debit to make payments and you’ll never be late again.

Annual Savings: $234
(eliminating six late fees a year )

2. Wipe Out Interest: The average household has $7,430 in credit-card debt. But let’s assume you have just half that. Take advantage of a 12-month 0% balance-transfer offer from Bank of America or Discover.

Annual Savings: $422
(on a rate of 13.6%)

3. Stay in-Network, Nix ATM Charges: Each time you use an out-of-network ATM, you pay an average of $3.43. Avoid charges by selecting a bank like Citibank, with more than 23,000 fee-free ATMs.

Annual Savings: $178
(based on one fewer out-of-network ATM withdrawal per week)

4. Get Free Checking No Minimum? No Matter: Brick-and-mortar banks charge an average fee of $12 per month for checking accounts and require an average minimum balance of almost $3,500 to avoid it. If you use direct deposit or make five or more debit-card purchases each month, Chase offers a free account with no minimum balance required. Or bank online at Salem Five Bank, pay no monthly fees, and earn 2.75%.

Annual Savings: $144

5. Use Cash-Back Cards Savings Really Add Up: Tired of accruing airline miles that you can never redeem? Switch to a cash-back credit card and earn enough in a year to pay for a coast-to-coast ticket. If you spend $850 a month for 12 months using Blue Cash from American Express, you could see a $250 credit on your bill at the end of the period. Even charging $550 a month on basics such as groceries, gas and drugstore purchases can put money in your pocket.

Annual Savings: $250

6. Bounce No More Sign Up for Free Alerts: The average bounced-check fee has increased 34% over the past ten years and is now $29, according to Bankrate.com. If you never balance your checkbook, sign up for your bank’s free alerts to warn you if your balance drops to the preset amount of your choice. Need a safety net? You can get overdraft protection. Just be sure you know how much you’re paying for it.

Annual Savings: $174
(six fewer overdrafts per year)

7. Refinance a Mortgage: Monthly mortgage payments take up the lion’s share of most household budgets, so refinancing can produce substantial savings. With the interest rate on a 30-year fixed-rate loan at less than 5.5%, now is a good time to refinance.

Slashing your rate from 6.75% to 5.25% on a 30-year loan will save you 17% on your monthly payment. On a $200,000 mortgage, that translates into a savings of almost $193 per month. For your own situation, use the How much will my payment be? calculator at Kiplinger.com. Of course, for a refi to pay off, you must stay in the house long enough to recoup any closing costs, which typically amount to 2% to 4% of the loan.

Annual Savings: $2,313
(refinancing a $200,000 mortgage)

TOTAL ANNUAL BANKING SAVINGS: $3,715

Pay Less for Health and Insurance Costs

1. Reshop Life Insurance Rates Are Lower, Even Though You’re Older: Premiums have plummeted over the past decade, and you may be able to save hundreds of dollars by reshopping your policy, even though you’re older now. Term-insurance prices varied widely in 1998, and many major insurers were charging a 40-year-old man at least $750 per year for a $500,000, 20-year term policy. Today, a healthy 50-year-old man can buy a $500,000 ten-year term policy (which expires in the same year) for just $445 — a savings of more than $300 per year. Compare prices among dozens of insurers at Accuquote.com.

Annual Savings: $300
(on a ten-year term policy for a 50-year-old)

2. Save on Meds Generics Pummel Pill Prices: Try switching from brand-name prescription drugs to generics or other low-cost alternatives. A 50-year-old couple taking five common drugs and cholesterol-lowering medication for each, plus high-blood-pressure and enlarged-prostate drugs for the husband and an osteoporosis drug for the wife could lower their monthly costs from about $575 to $37 by switching to generics and shopping at a lower-cost pharmacy. Find alternatives for your medications at Destination Rx.

Annual Savings: $797
(by switching blood-pressure medication Norvasc to the generic brand at a big-box store)

3. Insure for Less Lower Your Home Premiums: Raising the deductible on your homeowners insurance policy from $250 to $1,000 or $2,500 can lower your premiums by 15% to 25% per year. For example, boosting the deductible from $250 to $1,000 on a house insured for $250,000 in northern California reduces the average annual premium at the 22 companies in InsWeb’s database by $188; raising the deductible from $250 to $2,500 lowers the average premium by $319.

Annual Savings: $319
(on a house insured for $250,000)

4. Raise Your Limits Boost the Deductibles: Increasing the deductibles on your comprehensive and collision coverage from $500 to $1,000, or even $2,500, can reduce your premiums by 12% to 18%. For example, boosting the deductibles from $500 to $1,000 would mean a savings of $648 per year, on average, for a northern California family with two teenage drivers, according to the database at InsWeb, an insurance Web site. Raising the deductibles from $250 to $2,500 lowers the average premium by $1,503.

Annual Savings: $648
(with a $1,000 deductible and two teenagers)

Pay Less for Utilities

Reducing energy and water usage are just a few of our ideas on how to Save $50 a Day.

1. Install a Smart Thermostat: Why heat or cool your home when you don’t need to? With a programmable thermostat, you can put your temperature preferences on autopilot. Cost: $70.

Annual Savings: $180

2. Buy Better Bulbs: At $7 a pop, compact fluorescent light bulbs aren’t cheap. But those that are Energy Star-rated use 75% less energy than traditional incandescent bulbs and last up to ten times longer.

Annual Savings: $166
(if 20 bulbs are replaced)

3. Go Low-Flow: Replacing even one pre-1994 shower head and one faucet with conserving counter-parts can make a big difference in water usage. For a thrifty shower head with oomph, try Delta’s Water-Amplifying Shower Head (shown above; $13 at Home Depot). It uses a low 1.6 gallons per minute. For an even cheaper fix, outfit your faucets with screw-on aerators (50 cents to $3 apiece).

Annual Savings: $47

4. Plug a Leaky Toilet: A leaky toilet can waste up to 200 gallons of water daily, or 73,000 gallons per year. Put a drop of food coloring into the toilet tank; if it shows up in the bowl, you’ve got a leak.

Annual Savings: $146

5. Ditch the Old Fridge: The biggest energy eater in your kitchen is the refrigerator. A new Energy Star-rated model will consume 40% less electricity than a model made eight years ago. Consider Frigidaire’s 18.2-cubic-foot model (FRT18HP7JW; $750 at Sears).

Annual Savings: $100

6. Seal the Gaps: No need to heat and cool the great outdoors: Caulk and weatherstrip your doors and windows, and don’t forget to close the flue damper when your fireplace is not in use.

Annual Savings: $96

7. Launder for Less: Cut your water and energy use by more than 40% with an Energy Star-qualified clothes washer, either a top or front loader. Our pick: the Kenmore HE5t series of front-loading washers ($1,600) and the Bosch Nexxt 800 series ($1,450).

Annual Savings: $50

8. Kill a Watt-Waster: Your home electronics are sucking electricity even when they’re turned off. Unplug them or use a power strip to turn off multiple devices simultaneously (such as the Smart Strip Power Strip, $40, at www.smarthomeusa.com). Use a power meter to figure out which devices are most wasteful.

Annual Savings: $56

9. Flush Frugally Replace a toilet made between 1980 and 1994 with one certified by the Environmental Protection Agency’s WaterSense program that uses less than 1.3 gallons of water per flush. For economy, check out the Glacier Bay Elongated HET ($128 at Home Depot). For contemporary style, the dual-flush Toto Aquia (shown at left; $435) lets you choose a lower or higher water flow as needed.

Annual Savings: $90

10. Dial Down Your Water Heater: If you have an electric water heater, turn the temperature gauge down to 120 degrees. (Make sure your dishwasher has a heater that boosts the temperature back to 140 degrees to ensure proper cleaning.) If the water heater is warm to the touch, wrap it in an insulating jacket (such as a Thermwell blanket; $20 at Amazon.com).

Annual Savings: $43

11. Bundle Up for Savings: Competition is a wonderful thing. And phone, wireless, cable and satellite-TV companies are competing like mad to get your business by bundling services at discount prices. Right now, the standard-issue package is $99 for TV, telephone and broadband Internet service. All those services can easily total more than $150 a month if billed separately, so a monthly savings of $20 is a minimum if you go the bundling route.

One caveat: That $99 deal usually lasts for only one year. Solution: If your contract price rises, you can either switch providers for a lower rate or threaten to switch providers to bargain your rate back down.

Annual Savings: $240

TOTAL ANNUAL SAVINGS: $1,214

Pay Less for Food

1. Switch Supermarkets Stock Up on Grocery Staples at a Discount: Six-word strategy for saving on food: Get in car. Drive to Costco (Sam’s or BJ’s). We compared prices on 37 staples at Costco, Safeway and Whole Foods, calculated the prices for equivalent sizes, multiplied the total for each list by 12 (representing monthly shopping expeditions) and added Costco’s $50 annual membership to the cost. Result: Costco can supply a family of four with many of the basics for an annual tab of $1,708, followed by Safeway, at $2,417, and Whole Foods, at a pricey $3,498.

Annual Savings: $1,790
(Costco versus Whole Foods)

2. Caffeinate Cleverly Lattes Don’t Have to Break the Bank: We wouldn’t dream of asking you to quit cold turkey, but weaning off Starbucks could save you money. A 20-ounce latte from Dunkin’ Donuts runs $3.29; at Starbucks, the same-size drink sets you back $3.65. Plus, at Dunkin’ Donuts you don’t have to say “venti” when you want a large.

Annual Savings: $131
(if you lay off the doughnuts and have one cup daily)

3. Choose Cheap Eats: Can’t give up eating out once a week? At hip, fast-casual sit-down restaurants, you stand in line to order the food and save on prices and tip. We tried the food at four chains and pronounced them comparable to full-service restaurants.

FRENCH
Mon Ami Gabi: Roast chicken with mushrooms and frites, wine and tip ($57.50).
La Madeleine: Rosemary rotisserie chicken dinner (half chicken) with rice and broccoli, and wine ($32). Savings for two: $25.50

ITALIAN
Maggiano’s: Shrimp and angel hair al arrabbiata, wine and tip ($54).
Vapiano: Scampi (pasta, shrimp, sauce, vegetables) and wine ($32).
Savings for two: $22

TEX-MEX
Chevys: Steak burrito with veggies, rice, beans and guacamole, and beer and tip ($44.50).
Chipotle: Fajita burrito with steak, rice, beans, guacamole and salsa, and beer ($23.48).
Savings for two: $21.02

BARBECUE
Famous Dave’s: Chopped pork, muffin, corn bread, two sides, soda and tip ($29.38).
Shane’s Rib Shack: Chopped pork, Texas toast, two sides and soda ($20.76).
Savings for two: $8.62

Annual Savings: $463
(for a couple dining out twice a month)

4. Belly Up to the Bar: You can eat well at a fraction of the price if you stick to the bar menu — and we’re not just talking wings. These restaurants are among many that offer fancy food on the cheap. We computed the difference in price between ordering two entrees from the regular menu and three items (one for each diner, plus one to share) from the bar menu.

Cheesecake Factory
Entree: Salmon salad ($32)
Bar: Chicken pot stickers ($9)
Savings for two: $23

McCormick & Schmick’s
Entree: Rainbow trout ($35.60)
Bar: Fish and scallop ceviche ($12).

Savings for two: $56

Annual Savings: $410
(for a couple who dine out once a month)

TOTAL ANNUAL FOOD SAVINGS: $2,794

Pay Less on Transportation Costs

1. Save on Gas: The exhilarating drop in gas prices was welcome relief after last summer’s run-up. But even at current prices, you can save big by altering your driving behavior.

Keep your cool. Easing up on aggressive driving can cut your fuel consumption by 35%. Speeding is the biggest culprit, but drag-race-inspired peal-outs and jerky lane changes also shave miles per gallon. SAVINGS: $400

Get rid of the junk in your trunk. An extra 100 pounds in your vehicle costs you. SAVINGS: $30

Maintain your vehicle by keeping your engine properly tuned and tires inflated, replacing air filters regularly and using the right grade of motor oil. SAVINGS: $348

Annual Savings: $778
(based on studies using the best-selling Toyota Camry V6)

2. Buy a Fuel-Efficient Car: If you’re in the market for a new car this year, you’re in the driver’s seat when it comes to haggling over price. But you can save even more by choosing a fuel-sipping model — and it doesn’t have to be a hybrid.

Set your sights on 30 miles per gallon. The Toyota Corolla or Honda Fit will deliver that, compared with 20 mpg for the Ford Taurus V6 or Chevrolet Impala V6. SAVINGS: $550

Downsizing from a gas guzzler also does the trick. Not all trade-downs are equal, though. For example, beware of swapping a relatively new large crossover for a smaller one with better gas mileage. The money you lose by trading in a newer vehicle (cars typically lose 40% to 50% of their value in the first three years of ownership) may be more than the money you save on gas. One example of a smart new-car downsize: Swap a 2007 Chevrolet Tahoe AWD for a 2009 Volkswagen Jetta SportWagen. You’ll save on both gas and monthly payments without losing all your cargo space. SAVINGS: $1,031

Annual Savings: $1,581
(if both changes are made by a two-car family)

3. Rent Cars Cheaply: Rent off-site instead of at the airport or hotel to cut a concession fee. Savings: $77 Pay for your own gas. Prepaid rates are often close to pump prices, but unless you return the car on empty, you’re paying for fuel you didn’t use. SAVINGS: $40

Turn down the collision-damage waiver. Your own auto policy generally covers rental-car damage. SAVINGS: $81

Use a discount site, such as Hotwire.com. SAVINGS: $70

Annual Savings: $268
(based on one one-week rental at $50 per day)

4. Cut Your Commute: The average commute is 30 miles round-trip per day. If you reduce your driving time by one day per week by telecommuting or carpooling, you’ll drive 3,120 fewer miles per year. Reducing the miles you drive in a year can also cut your car-insurance premium.

Annual Savings: $200
(not counting the big reduction in stress)

TOTAL ANNUAL TRANSPORTATION SAVINGS: $2,827

Pay Less for Investing Costs

1. Slash Investing Costs They Drag Down Performance: The average diversified U.S. stock mutual fund charges 1.3% a year in expenses. If your fund isn’t beating its benchmark (or you don’t have the time to monitor actively managed funds), you’re better off buying a low-cost index fund or ETF that hews to the benchmark. For instance, Fidelity Spartan 500 Index fund (symbol FSMKX), which tracks Standard & Poor’s 500-stock index, has an annual expense ratio of just 0.10%. And indexing isn’t a compromise strategy. Managers of many top pension funds and endowments swear by it.

Annual Savings: $1,200
(based on cutting expenses from 1.3% to 0.10% on a $100,000 portfolio)

2. Keep Tabs on Your Trades: If you aren’t an active trader, make sure you’re not penalized by a broker who charges an “inactivity fee.” For example, E*Trade charges investors who don’t conduct any trades in a given three-month period $40 for the quarter.

Annual Savings: $160

3. Clone Your Favorite Manager: Sticking with no-load mutual funds is a strategy that can save thousands over time, and there is almost always a great no-load alternative to a load fund. For example, instead of shelling out a 4.75% load for Davis NY Venture A fund (NYVTX), go for the nearly identical Selected American Shares S fund (SLASX), which doesn’t have a sales charge.

Annual Savings: $235
(avoiding a 4.75% load on a $5,000 investment)

4. Go With a Discount Broker: Full-service firms charge $30 or more for an online stock trade. But online brokers’ fees average just $10, reports Aite Group, a financial research firm. We like E*Trade and TD Ameritrade for $10 trades. And be honest: Is your broker’s research worth the extra 20 bucks?

Or, trade for free. ZeccoTrading gives you ten free stock trades per month if you maintain a minimum balance of $2,500. Wells­Trade allows 100 free trades a year if you keep a total of $25,000 or more in Wells Fargo in almost all types of accounts.

Annual Savings: $240 (using a discount broker for one trade per month)

TOTAL ANNUAL INVESTING SAVINGS: $1,835

Pay Less for Leisure

1. Save on Ticketed Events: Online reseller StubHub.com often (but not always) beats prices on Ticketmaster.com and TicketsNow.com — especially for games that season-ticket holders want to unload. But be sure to check several ticket sellers (the following prices are for two tickets and include all fees and shipping).

EVENT: New York Knicks at New Jersey Nets.
BEST PRICE: StubHub, $91
COMPARABLE SAVINGS: Ticketmaster, $196

COMPARABLE SEATS: StubHub, $925
Annual Savings: $384
(one show)

2. Swap Sitting Services: Round up another family or two with cabin fever and take turns baby-sitting the kids. If you go out for four hours every month and would have paid a baby sitter $10 per hour, you can save $40 per month. All you need to do is watch the other family’s brood occasionally — which gives your kids a few extra playmates.

Annual Savings: $480
(one night out a month)

3. Check Out a Film: Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince — the sixth installment of the popular wizardry series — hits theaters on July 17. To see it on opening day, a family of four would pay $28 (the average ticket price is $7, according to the Motion Picture Association of America).

But you can see it free if you wait a few months and borrow the DVD from your local library. If it’s checked out, request a hold so that the previous borrower can’t renew. The library will notify you when it’s available.

Annual Savings: $168
(bimonthly night at the movies for a family of four)

4. Travel Last-Minute: Whet your wanderlust and save big by booking an impromptu, package-deal vacation at LastMinute.com. Reserved a week before departure, a trip for two from New York City to Amsterdam in early January cost about $2,000, including a round-trip flight and five-night stay in a four-star hotel. If you had planned the same trip several months in advance and booked it all separately, you’d have spent $2,500.

Annual Savings: $500
(one package trip to a vacation destination)

TOTAL ANNUAL LEISURE SAVINGS: $2,241

Answer: The emanate of what adult young kids can as great as should do to benefit assure which their kin have been financially rebuilt for early early early early early early early early retirement is a single that’s removing some-more courtesy as lifespans enlarge as great as we turn increasingly reliant upon a personal assets to comment a post-career lives.

Typically, though, this is a sort of subject we get from baby boomers who, already squeezed by concurrently saving for early early early early early early early early retirement as great as profitable propagandize as great as alternative child-rearing costs, right divided face a awaiting of additionally carrying to yield monetary benefit to late parents.

Indeed, a tellurian investigate of intergenerational issues expelled early final year by The Hartford found which some-more than a entertain of Americans 45 as great as comparison contend they have been right away caring for both young kids as great as kin or comparison relatives. Given how really bad a early early early early early early early early retirement assets of many retirees have been strike by a marketplace meltdown, we wouldn’t be astounded if which series has already increasing or will over a subsequent couple of years.

The actuality which your mother is only 50 expected puts we somewhere in your 20s, which equates to you’re grappling with this emanate progressing than many people. Just as well, though, given it can give both we as great as your mother some-more time to try to work out a viable plan.

Basically, there have been dual separate, though related, counts we as great as your mother contingency address. The initial is essentially financial, whilst a second deals some-more with personal as great as attribute issues.

Money Matters

The monetary side is comparatively straightforward. You’ve got to find a little proceed for your mother to begin saving upon a unchanging basis. You contend she has no 401(k), though is she authorised for one? If so, we need to remonstrate her to pointer up for it ASAP as great as minister during slightest sufficient to get a employer’s match, if there is one. This is her most appropriate shot during jumping upon a assets bandwagon given contributions to her comment have been automatically deducted from her paycheck prior to can outlay a money.

If your mom’s employer doesn’t indicate a 401(k) or alternative assets plan, benefit her open an IRA. By starting to Morningstar’s IRA calculator, we as great as she can fast see which sort of IRA, if any, she’s authorised for (traditional deductible, Roth IRA or nondeductible) as great as how most she can contribute. The limit grant for 2009 is $5,000, as well as $1,000 for people 50 as great as older. By a way, presumption she’s eligible, your mother can additionally have an IRA grant for a 2008 taxation year if she acts by Apr 15th.

If your mother can sock divided some-more than a limit grant for an IRA account, she can regularly deposit in tax-efficient investments such as index supports similar to those upon a Money 70 list of endorsed supports or tax-managed supports inside of a taxable account.

To enlarge a contingency which a income will essentially have it in to an IRA or taxable account, have your mother pointer up for an involuntary investing devise which transfers a sure volume — $100, $200, $500, whatever — from her checking comment to her investment comment any month. Like payroll deduction, this choice creates saving some-more available — as great as some-more expected to happen.

Personal Matters

The personal aspects of credible someone to save — generally a primogenitor or alternative relations — competence be some-more formidable to understanding with, however. You contend your mother is 50 though has saved zip for retirement. So a viewable subject is why?

Maybe she’s only never put her thoughts to it, in which box display her columns which indicate tips upon how to begin saving or indicate probable ways to giveaway up a bucks to do so competence help.

It’s additionally probable which she’s never done sufficient income to be equates to to put something divided consistently. Or maybe she only doesn’t wish to. Maybe she’s ideally happy a proceed things are.

All of which is to contend that, distant from simply introducing your mother to 401(k)s, IRAs, involuntary investment skeleton as great as a like, a genuine plea competence be removing her upon house with a need to save for retirement. You competence additionally have to hope for yourself for a probability which she’s only not peaceful to change.

Finally, we additionally need to cruise that, even if your mother is peaceful to accept recommendation upon saving for retirement, we competence not be a most appropriate chairman to give it to her.

While we competence see yourself as a endangered son or daughter only seeking to benefit a primogenitor in need, your mother competence see a inquisitive or forward child. Or she competence feel broke about carrying to plead a sum of her personal finance management with you. She could see this as an transgression of her independence. So after broaching a emanate with her, we competence find which you’re improved off carrying her understanding with a monetary planner whom we or she hires.

Clearly, you’ll have to practice a little attraction when we proceed your mother upon this issue. But right divided is a great time to do it. If your mother is peaceful to save, afterwards starting right divided will give her some-more time to urge her early early early early early early early early retirement prospects.

And if she demurs, during slightest you’ll have copiousness of time to consider about how most monetary benefit we competence be peaceful as great as equates to to magnify her in a destiny should she need it — as great as concede we to regulate your own monetary formulation accordingly.
