Free Investment guide from American Express

Free Investment guide from American Express entitled "How to Invest Smarter". If you are in their mailing list, you may have received an email inviting you to request it. This is from Ameriprise Financial, so after you receive the guide, also expect to receive invitations to talk to their professional advisors/managers. (Nothing is really free!)

Some of the things included:

The differences between bonds, mutual funds, annuities, stocks, IRAs and cash reserve investments, and some benefits and drawbacks of each

How to determine your personal tolerance for risk

Why you should always "pay yourself first"

How to make taxes work for you
