Are you leaving money on the table with your savings account? The Consumer Federation of America (CFA), a nonprofit consumer advocacy organization, thinks you may be. Their study of Federal Reserve Board data shows that Americans leave up to $50 billion in potential interest payments on the table every year. Here’s why:
• Maybe we choose a bank that is close to home and not an institution that offers the best rates possible.
• We may simply not know the interest rate and fees applied to our bank accounts.
• We don’t realize how a rate that is only a few percentage points higher—plus compound interest—can really add up.
But even a small amount of savings—at a higher rate—can add up over time. This is why it’s important to make sure you’re getting the best rate possible from your savings accounts.

THE MOVIES YOU WANT TO SEE
For our next technology tidbit, we
are going to explore ways to protect your computer with FREE software. Many security companies are just as concerned as you are about protecting your computer. Whether they like it or not, protecting your computer makes their life easier. Trusted antivirus companies allow you to install free antivirus software on your home computer. Yes... FREE...no tricks...no games – it’s free.
Keeping your computer safe requires two types of protective software (sometimes they’re rolled into one suite). You want to make sure you have both Antivirus and AntiMalware protection. If we were to visualize the function of each, malware is the guy who goes around the neighborhood loosening your front door and making it easy to enter your CPU while the virus/payload is the van that comes
at night to take all of your valuables (information). In my opinion, some
of the better free antivirus software is as good, if not better, than the

large packages people buy. If you
are interested in running this free software and not having to pay for your subscriptions, I normally recommend three companies. These are Avast!,
Avira and AVG (yes, they all start with
the letter A). These companies all offer high-quality, free antivirus software for your home computers or mobile devices. They cover the one of the two halves of protection. To cover the malware issue, my longtime favorite software has been Malwarebytes. This software has done the best job of protecting against and removing malware from devices. The combination of this and one of the three antivirus software products previously mentioned will go a long way in keeping your computer from harm. As always, your best protection is staying vigilant on the web, not clicking on suspicious links and not opening emails from people you do not know.
