Work to keep your interest rate down, your savings rate up
Suze Orman is a financial planner and author best known for her CNBC television program "The Suze Orman Show." She answered reader questions about personal finance on Boston.com last week. Here are excerpts: Q. Hi. I am in my early 30s and own a condo with a hefty mortgage. This does not allow me to contribute to my Roth or 401K anymore. I have $20,000 combined. However my employer contributes 5 percent of my salary automatically. Is this enough for a few years until I get a raise? A. The question should really be: How do you free up more money so that you can have your cake and eat it, too? The best advice I could tell you is the higher your FICO score, the lower your interest rates will be on everything you purchase. The more money you save in interest , the more money you have to eventually put into your retirement account.

The other speakers said she had been through an ordeal and needed time to mend. Translation: The Sun newspaper and the ITV television network were paying her more than 100,000 ($200,000, 150,000) because I want people to know what Ive gone through. Couldnt she have done that at the news conference? .

Recent developments affecting the investment climate have not always been reported accurately or fully understood. Some may wonder why a banker is chairing a panel discussion on mining, by consensus the most important sectoral component of Mongolia’s investment and growth potential. Let me explain. Khan Bank is the ubiquitous bank in Mongolia with 425 offices in every village and neighborhood in the country. Almost 70% of the country’s households bank with us, many of them employed in or concerned with mining.
