Dear Dave,

I’m getting married this summer, and I’m on Baby Step 4 of your plan while starting to invest for the first time. My fiancé is getting onboard with your advice, and he’s currently in the process of paying down his student loan. Should I put my emergency fund money, minus $1,000, toward his student loan debt?

Elizabeth

Dear Elizabeth,

Congratulations on your upcoming wedding! I’m really proud of you guys, too, for your mature behavior where money is concerned.

Dear Dave,

I’ve always heard that you shouldn’t ask a family member to be the executor of your will. What are your feelings about this?

Joyce

Dear Joyce,

Dear Dave,

I know when it comes to investing you like mutual funds and paid-for real estate. What do you think about using condominiums as investment properties instead of single-family homes?

Jason

Dear Jason,

I don’t really have a problem with condos as paid-for investments. I own a couple of them myself. When it comes to making this kind of investment for the first time, however, I would advise that you keep a few things in mind.

Dear Dave,

I pastor a small church that is debt-free. I’d like for us to save an emergency fund for the church, but I’m not sure what would be considered an expense. Can you help?

David

Dear David,

       Keli Hiatt Anderson, a native of North Ogden and professional photographer, recently had the opportunity, to travel to Greece with the non-profit organization called Carry the Future.

She was one of 8 women who, for 10 days, left the comforts of home and family to give relief to down-trodden refugees thousands of miles away.   This relief came in the form of baby carriers.

Congress Shows Rare Bipartisanship in Effort to Promote New Technologies.

By Hal Quinn

Sometimes there’s actually encouraging news coming out of Washington.  

In an effort to update America’s energy policy, and tackle some looming problems for the nation’s manufacturers, the Senate has passed new, bipartisan legislation. The bill addresses such diverse issues as cutting-edge energy technologies and America’s increasing dependence on minerals and metals sourced from overseas.

So how did all of this good news come about?
