The July issue of Consumer Reports Money Adviser has an article titled "Is High Interest Checking for You?" The article explains different kinds of requirements that must be met.

I hesitated posting this because there is no way that I can link it for you. Consumer Reports Money Adviser is a 16-page publication that is by subscription. I use it and also my other 16-pager Kiplinger's Retirement Report as kind of like a Readers' Digest version of what's going on with money stuff. Both publications help me keep up with basic information that might be good to know. Nothing esoteric about either publication. Simple stuff -- my style.

In the July Consumer Reports Money Adviser there is also a good little article that could serve as a basic intro to dividend investing. Solid dividend-payers, if correctly chosen, can help to create a little buffer zone sometimes. Makes the roller coaster ride a little easier on the stomach -- maybe......

Well, I guess this post is not really much help because links are not available, but if any of this interests you, your friendly local librarian might be able to help you find a copy of the July issue. If locating just the article -- the "high interest checking" one is on pgs. 6 and 7 and the dividend article is on pages 8 and 9.
