| What Are Your Future Plans? | I need all the tax advantages I can get now, don't really have plans for retirement, just know I should be doing something. | I'm on the downhill slide now and will need more access than tax advantages in 60 to 10 years. I can almost see it! | I'm interested in helping my children prepare for their future - college is a lot closer than my retirement! |

IRA Accounts

| Most appropriate for... | Just getting started... thinking about a systematic savings plan. | Starting to see savings grow and want to take advantage of higher tax returns. | Moving a Roth IRA that would perform much better at TBF than where it is. | Rolling over a previous employer's plan to TBF. |
| Considerations | Automatic transfer, payroll deduction for any amount. | Starting at $500. | Directly from one financial institution to another; unlimited number. | Funds are released to you and deposited within 60 days; 1 rollover per 12 months. |
