Money & Stuff
Seventy-five years! It's hard to believe.
and it's hard to believe that this year
is a quarter gone! Ethan will be one
year old in 4 months. I think his hair
is starting to sprout on his head.
Kadie is growing like the weeds
in my yard and my grand-dogs
are doing fine.
This is a good time to take a look at
your 401(k) plan. We have had a pretty
good run for about the last 12 months
(I know it does not seem so, but we
have). I can't tell you enough to keep
an eye on your investments. It's your
job to watch your money. However,
you can get some help from me. I don't
have all of the answers, but I can get
them for you.
There are a lot of new offerings in the
annuity area, and I have been getting
some calls about "indexed" annuities.
It could be just what you want. or not.
In the coming months, I will have a lot
of products in addition to CUNA Mutual
Life Products. So if you have a need for
something that you are having a hard
time finding, well, just give me a call.
You know that there is no charge for
my services. I'm brought to you by the
credit union that has been looking out
for you for the past 75 years!

Note from the President
Recognition for hard work is truly
an honor, regardless of what you
do or whatever form that recognition
takes. Whether it be a kind word of
approval from a superior at work
or from a loved one at home, it can
mean so much to know that you are
appreciated for what you do and how
you positively affect others. Therefore,
I want to express, on behalf of everyone
here at Postal Federal Community
Credit Union, my gratitude to our
members for the honor you have
bestowed upon us yet again. This
spring, you named us the "Best Credit
Union" for the "Best of the Ozarks"
by the Springfield News-Leader for
the second year in a row.
It is a great honor to receive such
recognition, and we thank you all.
Our goal is to continue earning your
trust as well as your praise. We do
that by continuing to assess our
product line and introduce new
services to meet your needs. and by
providing quality, personal service
that makes your financial life easier
and more convenient. We strive
to offer educational seminars and
programs that help you to make
informed decisions. We ensure that
our rates are competitive so that
you always have a low-cost financial
solution for whatever your needs
are. And sure, it may be our job,
but it's nice to hear that our
members approve.
In that same spirit, I want all our
members to know that we always
welcome your feedback. Let us know
how we can serve you. I look forward
to speaking to many of you at our
upcoming Annual Meeting, and I also
welcome you to give us a call any time
to let us know how we can continue
meeting your financial needs. We are
more than happy to serve you.
